Doxycycline cap.1. Bill Ford, the great-grandson of Henry Ford and chairman of the Ford Motor Company, was in London yesterday – suggesting that Ford would get out of making cars. Well, not quite. What he said was: “The day will come when the whole notion of you owning a car won’t be appealing: you will own access to mobility”. You can see why the motor manufacturers want to rebalance their activities towards the service game and away from manufacturing. One is going up, the other down. But the skills needed to run a service business are very different from those needed to run a manufacturing one. You can always buy a service business: Ford owns the car-rental group Hertz. But making services is very different from making goods.
2. A Ford Focus is pretty much the same wherever it is sold in the world. But mobility is different. We have different commuter patterns; our cities are differently designed; we spend our weekends in different ways. To design a new car needs enormous resources: only a handful of companies in the world have the necessary size to do that. But in the new service industries, speed beats size. The giant companies of the new economy – such as AOL, Vodafone or Microsoft – did not even exist 30 years ago. The giants of another 30 years’ time don’t exist now, except maybe in the minds of some teenagers, listening to pop music in their bedrooms. The great technological breakthrough always comes from new companies not the existing giants.
3. Besides, our notions of mobility will, I think, change. A generation ago the luxury was having access to a car. Now the luxury is not having to drive when everyone else is trying to do so. The luxury is a house or flat within walking distance of work, flexible working hours at an interesting occupation, or just to go for a country walk when no one else is. You can see what Ford is trying to do. This is to make moving about the world a nicer experience. But that is not what it is good at; what it is good at is making vehicles. There is a moral here. Every large manufacturing company is going to become more of a service company in the future. It is that or a slow death. But not all will succeed in making the transition. Sure, there will still be a Ford Motor Company in another 30 years’ time. And it will be selling a higher ratio of services to goods than it does at present. But in terms of power in the world, it will be less important.

Doxycycline cap.
Doxycycline is a synthetic antibiotic derived from tetracycline. Doxycycline is used for treating many bacteria infections such as urinary tract infections, acne, gonorrhea, and chlamydia, periodontitis (gum disease) and others. Doxycycline is a tetracycline bacteriostatic antibiotic. It works by slowing or hampering the growth of bacteria and inhibits protein synthesis of the bacteria thus causing its death. Tetracyclines, including doxycycline, have a similar antimicrobial spectrum of activity against a wide range of gram-positive and gram-negative organisms. Cross resistance of these organisms to tetracyclines is common.
