Ex: A story of James who wanted to buy magic beans

© Virtusa Corporation ● Confidential

James (Jack's half-cousin) goes to the fair to get magic beans. There he finds a magic shop. They say they are all out and don't know when supplies are going to come again

Sorry dude,

Didn’t see a magic bean

since that I sold

them to that boy Jack

Frustrated, James turns to the WWW and Searches on

Google and finds magical-stuff-r-us.com.

There he’s able to and place an order.

The (web)wizard who runs the shop, Berlin (an ancestor of the great Merlin) sees this order.

Woohoo!

Big $$$ coming my way..

The Internet

Berlin’s site sends an automatic email to the ingredient supplier's (Sydney) system through his PDA.

Sydney sees these and sends the required ingredients to Berlin.

That wiz Berlin

means big business

The Internet

Berlin makes the beans and ships it over his flying dragon, Smoky, after feeding him well of course.

Meanwhile, James can see the current progress of his order through Berlin’s website, even the location of Smoky through GPS.

Burrrrp

This site is SOO Awesome!

The Internet

Result?

Everybody’s Happy!

All because of Berlin’s website!!
