"If you want to harness the power of the online auction to reach new customers, then read "The Auction-App" with a highlighter pen and notepad. You'll gain valuable insights into how auctions can help you enhance your customer relationships and add depth to your customer database."--Todd Simon, Senior Vice President, Omaha Steaks "Hits the sweet spot of the post-bubble Internet. Two veterans of the first and second Web generations share their wisdom with the third generation. Harden is a master not of the new-new thing, but of the real thing."--Robert R. Frump, Former Vice President, Standard & Poor's Electronic Media "Before you cave in to the increasingly tired theme of the viability of e-commerce, take a look at "The Auction-App." Within its pages you'll find examples and illustrations of businesses gaining full use of the dynamics that e-Business and online marketplaces afford."--Kent Allen, Research Director, Aberdeen Group
