TL;DR

Abstract
It is curious to find out how chief executive officers (CEOs) think of the Internet and e‐business. Through an analysis of the homepages of CEOs of the Fortune e‐50 companies, we attempted to evaluate the information value of the Websites. The analysis indicates that only a handful of CEOs can be currently regarded as the owners of informative homepages while most CEOs do not appear to be serious in building and maintaining their homepages.
