Small Enterprise On-Line, WIFI


Add to Technorati FavoritesSmall Enterprise On-Line, WIFI!

WIFI or wireless access to the Internet...to much for small enterprise or emerging markets? No, and don't forget it. Africa comes to mind with Google and SMS.

WIFI, SMS makes the Internet accessible for small enterprise and home based businesses via cell phones, that's right! Small Enterprise can reach to Africa and more.

Google, Africa reports:

In Africa, we've learned that mobile phones are easier to get to than internet connections and PCs, and that working towards our mission means working through mobile phones. At the beginning of 2008, there were over a quarter of a billion mobile subscribers on the continent. Mobile penetration has risen from just one in 50 people at the beginning of this century to almost one third of the population today. To that end, we are excited to launch a test of Google SMS Search in Ghana and Nigeria.

Google SMS Search provides access to information through a mobile phone without internet. You simply create an SMS message about what you are looking for and send it to the Google number (4664 or "GOOG") and wait for a response by SMS.

So far it looks like Google is only offering the service in Ghana and Nigeria; going where the need and technology come together.

Follow @MyLymanBlogspot Small Enterprise Ideas? Bernanke's Monster in the Back Yard 2020TAGS Channel from the SocioBusiness Portal ...the unspoken opinion of what's the mess and who is holding the bags?   So, here we are! Capital for enterprise development is choked up because of who is holding the bags. With a common known fact that small enterprise drives more than 70% of the global capital, why is this force seem stagnate? Okay.  Let's blame the Federal Reserve types and other similar Economic Entities. Holding the bags are those who seem to ignore the monster created in the back yard.  Charged with creating favorable working capital markets, "hey!," and, including the more than 70% of the global economy represented in the small enterprise markets, are the consequences leading to the continuous interventions.  To be fair, many interventions have historically occurred during global wars - allowing many economies to reset the global economic balances

Iranian Regime's Own Holocaust - Watch Force Majeure

Iranian Regime's Own Holocaust - Watch Force Majeure What Hitler was to the World, the Islamic Regime of Iran is equally so! From a humanitarian perspective to a business perspective, the time to act is now! During the early periods of the 20th Century a fervor of hate spiraled from the Third Reich while most of Europe, the USA and the World slept. Isolationism, a nauseous taste from World War I, and a sleeping society of cultural elites from of all places such as Norway (Nobel Country and home to Dynamite) all lead to the absolutism of "it will get better," and "they aren't really killing all those people." Once again, just like the failed League of Nations, the World and the United Nations sleeps and watches the onset of a lingering World War; the difference this time? Nuclear War. What sanctimonious European countries are still doing business with Iran? What "bad boys" on the block are still causing trouble? What wacko dictators are part o
