Internet Home Alliance Formed

A group of some of the most recognizable companies in the country chose Parks Associates' 13th annual Forum in San Francisco, CA, to announce the formation of a new industry alliance.  Dubbed the Internet Home Alliance, the group is dedicated to enhancing consumers' understanding, appreciation and adoption of the Internet lifestyle.   Internet Home Alliance will try to fuel the market by promoting industry communication and assisting in the development of the entire "ecosystem," from device manufacturers to retailers.
