Some Laws Proven Wrong

This book was written quite some time ago, during the time that Yahoo was the dominant force of the internet. This gives us an advantage to see if some of the laws are really immutable laws or just theories

Some examples where they got it terribly wrong
1. Amazon should just stick to selling books
2. Apple should stop manufacturing both hardware and software. Just focus on 1
3. TV and internet will never be together
4. palm pilot + telephone + cd player will never become 1 single device

However, many of the laws indeed have been proven to stand the test of time

As for the narrator, I felt as if I was listening to commercial. Never really felt a connection with him

Old but gold

The first 11 laws of branding are for physical brands and those are amazing. The last 11 are for internet brands and some of the info is quite dated. what was holding true in the early 2000s no longer applies, so take the last half of the book with a grain of salt. Still very good information through!

outdated but strong core

Almost everything in this book is wrong

It's a book of predictions and 20 years later it's all either wrong, or 75% wrong with hints of right here and there. it's pretty adorable actually
