克里斯•安德森在《连线》上发表的一篇文章首次探讨了“长尾”问题，现在，这篇文章已经成为当代最有影响力的商业文章之一，而长尾理论这个词也频频在世界各地的会议室和媒体上出现，成为商务人士讨论的焦点。长尾理论获得《商业周刊》“Best ldea of 2005”奖项，并被《GQ》杂志称为“2006最重要的创见”。
长尾理论已经成为不少企业的不二法门，Google就有相当比例的利润来自小公司的广告，其首席执行官斯米特也坦陈公司的战略受到了长尾理论的影响，并建议所有的商务人士都应该仔细研读这本“杰出而又及时的著作“。
长尾理论的来临，将改变企业营销与生产的思维，带动新一波商业势力的消长。执著 于培植畅销商品的人会发现，畅销商品带来的利润越来越薄；愿意给长尾商品机会的人，则可能积少成多，累积庞大商机。
长尾理论不只影响企业的战略，也将左右人们的品位与价值判断。大众文化不再万夫莫故，小众文化也将有越来越多的拥护者。唯有充分利用长尾理论的人，才能在未来呼风响雨。

何为长尾理论？
书中阐述，商业和文化的未来不在于传统需求曲线上那个代表“畅销商品”（hits）的头部； 而是那条代表“冷门商品”（misses）经常为人遗忘的长尾。 举例来说， 一家大型书店通常可摆放10万本书，但亚马逊网络书店的图书销售额中，有四分之一来自排名10万以后的书籍。这些“冷门”书籍的销售比例正以高速成长，预估未来可占整体书市的一半。
这意味着消费者在面对无限的选择时，真正想要的东西、和想要取得的渠道都出现了重大的变化，一套崭新的商业模式也跟着崛起。
长尾理论无处不在？长尾理论的应用决不止于互联网以及娱乐媒体产业。
传统的市场曲线是符合80/20铁律的，为了抢夺那带来80% 利润的畅销品市场，我们厮杀得天昏地暗，但是我们所谓的热门商品正越来越名不副实，比如说黄金电视节目的收视率几十年来一直在萎缩，若放在1970年，现在的一档最佳节目恐怕连前10名之列都难以进入。简言之，尽管我们仍然对大热门着迷，但它们的经济力量已经今非昔比。那么，那些反复无常的消费者们已经转向了什么地方？答案并非唯一。他们散向了四面八方，因为市场已经分化成了无数不同的领域。互联网的出现改变了这种局面，使得99%的商品都有机会进行销售，市场曲线中那条长长的尾部（所谓的利基产品）也咸鱼翻身，成为我们可以寄予厚望的新的利润增长点。
亚马逊畅销书榜经管类第一名，GOOGLE首席执行官斯米特、雅虎创办人杨致远 隆重推荐。丰饶时代的新经济学，彻底颠覆80/20法则！
内容简介
"The Long Tail" is a powerful new force in our economy: the rise of the niche. As the cost of reaching consumers drops dramatically, our markets are shifting from a one-size-fits-all model of mass appeal to one of unlimited variety for unique tastes. From supermarket shelves to advertising agencies, the ability to offer vast choice is changing everything, and causing us to rethink where our markets lie and how to get to them. Unlimited selection is revealing truths about what consumers want and how they want to get it, from DVDs at Netflix to songs on iTunes to advertising on Google. However, this is not just a virtue of online marketplaces; it is an example of an entirely new economic model for business, one that is just beginning to show its power. After a century of obsessing over the few products at the head of the demand curve, the new economics of distribution allow us to turn our focus to the many more products in the tail, which collectively can create a new market as big as the one we already know. The Long Tail is really about the economics of abundance. New efficiencies in distribution, manufacturing, and marketing are essentially resetting the definition of whats commercially viable across the board. If the 20th century was about hits, the 21st will be equally about niches.
