My guess is that McKinsey or some other big consulting firm would have been proud to have issued this report on information-age management for the Department of Defense. It's book length, so not easy to excerpt. But here's a sample:

With the widespread adoption of IP (Internet Protocols), browser technology, and the creation of Web pages and portals, we can finally move away from a push approach to information dissemination to a post and smart pull approach. Moving from a push to a post and smart pull approach shifts the problem from the owner of information having to identify a large number of potentially interested parties to the problem of having the individual who needs information identifying potential sources of that information. The second problem is a far more tractable one. This is because it is much easier for the individual who has a need for information to determine its utility than for the producer to make this judgment.
