Long Tail Business Modles

Today I read an article on businessshrink.biz: http://businessshrink.biz/psychologyofbusiness/2007/10/02/internet-business-is-killing-the-8020-rule/ and it got me thinking about it a bit more. I don't really think it applies to the internet the same way it might to the brick and mortar world. It was interesting to learn about Amazon's success with obscure book titles. I guess the real link between the 80-20 rule and the web is it finally makes it possible to make money on the 20 rather than the 80, which allows you to stick a little bit more to principle rather than cow-towing to the masses.
