 The Disappearing Computer Initiative - GROCER
The main aim of GROCER is to place new technologies (Bluetooth, WAP, RFID, etc.) at the level of the practical user by allowing users to use these technologies to perform everyday activities (in the case of this project grocery shopping).
The focus on the GROCER project will be on building two main technical products: 1) embedded location-based artefacts in real-world objects such as cereal boxes in grocery stores; and 2) a wireless architecture and application server system integrating these artefacts with handheld devices and distributed software agents.
The GROCER project is based on the notion that computing can be performed by any object supporting wireless communication through the Internet, if it is located appropriately.

 Grocer price war to hot up after fair Xmas
LONDON (Reuters) - Christmas trading figures from the country’s top supermarkets have shown the sector is in reasonable health, but also point towards an intensification of the already fierce competition in the year to come.
Overall, there was little sign of the retail meltdown some commentators had feared over Christmas.
In fact, the overall spend at grocers increased by 4.2 percent in December, according to TNS -- easily outstripping inflation.

 TidBITS#588/16-Jul-01
In an established, profitable business, pressuring competitors in key markets makes sense, but in a situation where everyone is losing massive sums of money in attempts to gain market share, forcing head-to-head competition just makes it all the more likely that everyone will fail.
Numerous high-flying Internet grocers such as ShopLink, Streamline, and, most recently, HomeRuns have fallen by the wayside in vain attempts to compete with one another while trying to set themselves apart from the traditional grocery stores.
Despite the tremendous failures of Webvan and so many other Internet grocers, it strikes me that the lesson is not that Internet grocery shopping can't succeed, but that it requires tremendous care and attention to detail when working out the business model.
