摘要

In A corner of a big warehouse in rural Virginia, Bobby Thompson spends his days, amidst stacks of Teletubbies and incontinence products, waiting for e-mail. When the PC dings with a message, he follows its instructions, picking some product off the shelf, then boxing and labelling it to be picked up. This is a new venture and still quiet, with hours between messages, so Mr Thompson fills in time by sweeping the floor and tidying up. Yet in this sleepy scene lie the seeds of a radical transformation of the trucking industry, one that is catapulting it to the forefront of e-business.
