MICROSOFT ON THE INTERNET

I think that putting this software on the together on the internet is a great idea. It could make work faster and easier for many employees. Co-workers can also view one another's spreadsheets and such. The idea of putting your documents in HTML format will also come into good use with teenagers. Teachers of online classes will use the ability of being able to post spreadsheets on blogs for homework and more. It will be more efficient for workers to be able put together their documents and spreadsheets on one form. Having it on the internet can have its disadvantages also. If your internet it down or you don't have wireless connection for your laptop; any circumstance where you can't access the internet would be a problem. It you went home expecting to finish a document from work online and you discovered that your internet was down,  you would be out of luck.

BECOMING A MILLIONAIRE!

I have plenty of strategies on saving money. These strategies may not lead up to a wealthy life as a millionaire, but it'll be enough to get me by and then some. Once I have a steady job, I will put all excess or at least half, if I can afford that, of each paycheck into a savings account. Hopefully, with time that account will pick up interest quickly. On the side, I will have a bank to drop my daily change into. I do this now and believe it or not, when it's time to roll up those coins and cash it in, it adds up nicely. Just as a side note, never deposit your change into one of those coin counters for a voucher slip because usually they subtract one cent or so per dollar. It may not sound like much but when your depositing a lump sum, it could be up to 50 dollars you are giving away. Having a good jobs and spending my money wisely while saving, will do me just fine in the future. I am not much of a high maintenance person.

CAR MANUFACTURING

The United States of America is indeed lagging behind in car manufacturing. Manufacturers are attempting to think ahead and produce trucks and Sport Utility Vehicles (SUVs) because they were in high demand. Unfortunately, for them gas prices are increasing more and more. The uncontrollable increase in these gas prices are convincing buyers to buy smaller cars opposed to the gas-guzzling Sport Utility Vehicles. All the money going towards manufacturing these Sport Utility Vehicles is not coming into good use and there in less and less profit to the businesses because the demand is decreasing. This is causing businesses to downsize and possibly close down completely. Chrysler has yet to learn from Ford and GM's mistakes. They are following right their footsteps. Executive officers of these companies plan to make changes to bring their business back up. There is said to be various new vehicles entering the market soon such as the mid-size Nitro Sport Utility Vehicle.

IPOD VS. ZUNE

Zune MP3 players seems to be a very effective was of listening to music. However, IPOD is still in the running. I personally believe that IPOD will always be the number one seller MP3 player. I have a hard time seeing why Zune would be a competitor at all because when looking at their characteristics, IPOD still stands out. The two have the same memory capacity but IPOD weighs less, is smaller, and is compatible with more audio and video connections. On the other hand, Zune has more extras such as FM tuner and music sharing. IPOD still has a good grip on the portable music area. When XBOX came out, at first it was a big hit over Playstation; but Playstation is still a huge hit over XBOX. A lot of people now actually have XBOX and Playstation in their homes even though they primarily play the same types of video games. People may possibly have IPOD for their MP3 downloads and Zune for the use of an FM tuner.  

 TIME MANAGEMENT

Time management is very essential to a successful game plan. All the training and skills means nothing without the right timing. For example, in baseball you may have the strongest swing that is a guaranteed homerun every hit. However, you'll never get that homerun if you swing too soon or too late. I can honestly say that my time management is good for a teenager. I make sure that I get the mandatory things done first and then work off more and more of things that can wait so that I'm not rushing to get it all done at once. For example, I always do my homework as soon as I get home from school. Usually, I have basketball practice or something else to do mid day, so I have the work that is to be turned in the next day right after school. Then, after practice or anything else I will do a little of my other work before bed. I would rate my time management a 7.5 out of 10. Given the fact that I would never give a 10 because no one is perfect.
