February 07, 2008This Week's Supply Chain Trivia - Who is Chris Anderson?
He is the editor of Wired magazine, who in 2004 wrote an article called "The Long Tail," which subsequently became a book.

The idea has morphed, in part, to companies taking a stronger look at how to optimize their low demand SKUs, as product proliferation is for many confounding the Pareto Principle.
