Hello again: Now that I am settled and rested, I have more time to ponder the implication of the DJ article. The more I look at it, the more I realize the implication of the DJ article is enormous. The essence of the article is CONVENIENCE. I know, I know. The title already mentioned that "Sites That Offer Consumers Convenience Prove to Be the Big Hits." It sure doesn't take a rocket scientist to figure this one out. But it is just so easy to overlook the simplest truth. As I have earlier when all I saw was the idea of 'Dull data' that make the web shines. On top of the dull data that is offered by ProNetLink (PNL), the key word search plus all the other services such as forms requirement, printing services, financing arrangement, shipping arrangement, etc. (for a detailed list of services, check the sitemap at PNL: <http://www.pronetlink.com/freetour/sitemap/>) all spell CONVENIENCE! BTW, the dull data comes from Dun & Bradstreet, a premium business database source. Who else offer a comprehensive international database beside Dun & Bradstreet? Even if there is other such database available, is there any other website beside PNL offering it? In Glenn Zagoren's own words, (see link: exchange2000.com "The D&B credentials are world famous. We spent over 4 months meeting with database companies from around the world and no one had the resources and data that Dun & Bradstreet offered". If what Glenn said is truth, then PNL will be the first website to offer the world a comprehensive international database with all the services that SPELL CONVENIENCE for companies to participate in international businesses. Being first has its advantage. The PNL database that is continued to be updated by companies signing up or simply updating the database through the "Free Listing" will be way ahead over other wanna be. At time pass, one of PNL strong appeal will be its most comprehensive and updated database. In due time, I believe PNL will be one of the earlier business website that fall into the headline: "Sites That Offer Businesses Convenience Prove to Be the Big Hits". So, ladies and gentlemen, the more I look at it, the more I think PNL will succeed because it fits the major criteria of what make a site succeed- CONVENIENCE. Prosperity to ALL! Mr. Patience
