When the PC entered the office world lots of people thought the end of paper is near! The contrary is the case.
With the increasing globalisation, emerging economies, more wealth for more people, business travel will definitely increase! You do not want to make business with people you have never met before or in places you did not even know they existed.

Great post and I am also a fan of Penelope Trunk...

If your in the news media business, or want to get in the news, it sure helps with networking and keeping your finger on the pulse of what's going on out there, especially considering things move at the speed of news these days. Even Rupert Murdoch said 'The world is changing very fast. Big will not beat small anymore. It will be the fast beating the slow'.
