Website Review
With the dynamic technological world, Web 2.0 since 2004 has been majorly associated with web applications that facilitate interoperability, interactive information, sharing, collaboration and user-centered design on the World Wide Web (About.com, 2011). Instances of 2.0 applications include web-based communities, hosted services, web applications, social-networking sites, video sharing sites, wikis, blogs, mashups and folksomnomies.
A Web 2.0 site is more interactive, it allows its users to interact with other users or to change website content, unlike the non-interactive websites where users are limited to the passive viewing of information that is provided to them.

It is best suited for business world, aspiring managers, business analysts, human resource outsourcing, IT outsourcing department and the business world in general. The site is also seen to have a simple but not simplistic look; the appearance is executive rather than flashy which befits the purpose it is meant for as a professional development website.
Significance of the site
The CIO website is generally a very informative site that has given me quite a lot of information on the business world, of particular interest is the "HOW TO" page that is included in the site. It sets the CIO site apart from the conventional sites that will just tell u what they found out in the market survey and not bring it into application.

Most well-known was Robert Scoble of Microsoft. With the 2004 U.S. Presidential elections, blogs' growth accelerated dramatically as nearly every news network, candidate in both U.S. Senate and House of Representative races, and political pundit has their own blog competing for the publics' attention.

When networks are enabled and flourish, their value to all users and to the organization increases as well. That increase in value is typically nonlinear, where some additions yield more than proportionate values to the organization (McCluskey and Korobow, 2009).

The vision Oracle has is one of unifying all of their enterprise applications into their Fusion architecture and creating a single unifying Service oriented Architecture (SOA) was first announced in 2006 (Krill, 13). Since that time Oracle has continually strived to create an SOA in Fusion that would appeal to its corporate customers.

Full creativity allows the production of greater wealth, for a stronger and more evolved society. Further in defense of the moral systems or perceived lack thereof in terms of newly created wealth, D'Souza asserts that most wealth currently created is the result of personal effort, rather than means such as inheritance. The wealth can then indeed be seen as the reward for effort, rather than wealth as a result of
1926, Yellow had been in the transportation industry. The deregulation of the transport industry saw the company decline in revenue because of the introduction of smaller and flrxible competitors. As an old company, it followed a non-viable method of operation and was run like a family business, with a degree of autocracy. The company had no vision, a narrow focus and lacked customer-orientation. To counter the declining business opportunity as
