| E-services, a business concept developed by Hewlett Packard
(HP), is the idea that the World Wide Web is moving beyond e-business and
e-commerce (that is, completing sales on the Web) into a new phase where
many business services can be provided for a business or consumer using
the Web. Some e-services, such as remote bulk printing, may be done at a
Web site; other e-services, such as news updates to subscribers, may be
sent to your computer. Other e-services will be done in the background without
the customer's immediate knowledge. HP defines e-services as "modular,
nimble, electronic services that perform work, achieve tasks, or complete
transactions." |
