EBOOKS AND ECOMMERCE

We are approximately 20 year into the information age, today, This means that an entire generation has come of age with the internet. Of course, it is difficult to imagine how people survived and communicated back then.

The world has changed in fundamental ways. My father tells me how he has successfully resisted plastic money, as the credit card was known, disparagingly. Today, I scarcely can think of anyone going about life without a credit card, smart card, debit card and other ecards.

This has been made all the more necessary because of trading on the internet. Publishing online is one way to make money. Posting an ebook to an online publisher instantly opens up the entire world as a potential market place.

Millions of people sell medallions, collector's coins, specialty watches, health products and he like. You can make money by offering to sell such items online.

Review of books, and other content, is anothe way of seeing your dollars, yuans or ruppees, grow.

If saving the money in hand is another way of making money, think of the myriad freebies on the worldwide web. There is an impossibly huge repertoire of information going round, you hardly need to dash to the bookshop to purchase a book. Moreover, there are millions of high-quality full lenghth free e-books that you can down load in .pdf or .txt or other suitable format.

Possibilities for making money and becoming rich in the information age are infinite!
