on the Nasdaq Thursday close from xuezhiqian123's blog
Although most of us are naturally intimidated by things we do not understand we all have the capacity to adapt and grow-and this is precisely what I did. I began reading through the websites and it hit me completely-this thing is going to be bigger than the invention of the car, television, or anything that has come before! To thrive in this new, big, and very bold world being created by the computer engineers and their counterparts I was going to have to create an e-business of my very own and do so soon! There are literally millions of pages added to the web every single day and I didn't know how to add a single one!
Thankfully and very important to my survival in this new electronically-driven era, there are companies that cater to people just like me. I realized that I didn't have to know what in the world things like html or java script were, I just needed the help of people who did! I found a place where, depending on my situation and needs, I could host a website of my own with all the tools and gadgets I would ever need to successfully operate my own e-business! With shopping cart integration, bandwidth based upon need and traffic flow, banners and logos to suit my needs, and even help with customizing my first few pages, this place had everything I could ever need!
I always knew that I wanted to own and operate my own business but I never dreamed I could do so using the Internet and working from my home. Now, I have access to every single person on the planet already connected to the Internet with thousands plugging in every day! To thrive, not just survive, in this Internet-driven world, it is absolutely critical that you are part of the game because otherwise it WILL pass you by!

The labor poll results that came out Friday were not pretty. Nonfarm payroll
employment was essentially unchanged in June, with on balance only 18,000 people
hired (including all gains and losses in nonfarm sectors), and the unemployment
rate was little changed at 9.2 percent, the labor bureau reported. Thoug
