2 Secret weapons not known to many entrepreneurs

Here are two secret weapons that will make your international dealings much smoother, especially where time and money are concerned!

Time and date .com
Have you ever tried to coordinate a conference call with people in two or more time zones, or made a call only to realize that you were reaching out to say “bonjour” in the middle of the night? This very simple but incredibly useful site has helped us time and time again to successfully coordinate calls and meetings with people in multiple countries and time zones. Sometimes it's hard enough keeping Pacific Standard Time (PST) straight with Mountain Daylight Time (MDT). But what if daylight savings is in effect? And what's the difference between UTC or GMT time?

TimeandDate.com shows you where any major city is by pointing it out for you on a map. It also tells you in real time, the time of day and day of the week (don't forget the international date line!) and provides international dialing codes and more.

FXConverter
Even if you officially swore off number crunching after that ego-crippling statistics class in college, The Foreign Exchange Currency Converter makes the complicated world of international currency as simple as dollars and cents, pounds and pence.

This multi-lingual converter couldn't be easier to use, either. With a few clicks you can instantly figure out how much a U.S. ten spot is worth in 164 different currencies. (If you're curious, ten bucks is worth 8.02 Euros, 5.52 British Pounds and 56.37 Seychelles Rupees.)

In the immortal words of all those late night infomercials... "But wait, there's more!" FXConverter also gives you historical rates, bid/ask prices and can even display the results in different languages. With this tool you'll make any cents make sense.

The teen market

These are some general statements I am making today after seeing a lot many websites that have statistics

• About 25 million teens use the internet and half of them say they go online every day.Mainly to check email and write something or the other on their blogs,forums or to chat for the fun of it.
  
• 51 percent of teens have access to broadband connections.This is mainly in developed countries.
  
• 81 percent of wired teens play games online, which is 52 percent higher than four years ago.This is mainly because teens get bored easily and always want something new and videogames give this experience to them-a word of caution has to be put here as games are very addicitive-a few people have actually died as a result of playing online games continuously.Everything needs to moderated and one should keep emotions under control and let off steam occassionally.
  
• More than 76 percent of teens read news online, which is really high.This true for developed countries and using technology to solve real world problems are being looked at.
  
• Approximately 10- 15 percent have made purchases online, which is really high.Ask any portal and retail firm on the net and get the statistics-the numbers could be higher.
  
• ABout 3-10 percent use the internet to get health information, which shows teens want to take care of their health and be informed about the bees and the birds.
• A large no of teens are helping parents find solutions to general problems by using the internet.This is being fuelled by companies who are encouraging students to write essays and poems on topics they like and some suggestions given by these students are actually used and spun off into products and services which are used by companies-Science and tech events in the top colleges are favorite hunting grounds for many companies.
  

Many are using services like say www.google.com/alerts to keep up with trends and keywords are usually games,filesharing,streaming video,technology, news, etc.Auction are always a hit and many a bargain are found on auction sites like eBay and Yahoo auctions.
Many teens are members of social networks too like Ryze,Orkut,linkedin etc.this fills their need for making friends all the time.

One of the best websites to get info on what teens want is www.teenresearch.com .The messages from this post are:
1)Understand teens better
2)Help teens be moderate in whatever activity and correct wherever needed.
3)Do not promote stuff that can be harmful to teens (eg violent videogames).
4)Know that the teens are powerful and influence many a decision maker.
5)Ignore teens at your own risk
