Exercise - select five applications that you have not heard of before from Popular URL's Web 2.0 awards or the webware awards and describe on your blog page how they could be useful to a business.
1. Craigslist - This site could be good to advertise the renting of a property or the sale of used goods, and it states it normally has a higher turn around than eBay (impressive!). Businesses could turn to using Craigslist like they do eBay.
2. Dimdim - This site would be good to meet up with people without having to travel. This would make conferences about online businesses simpler and more time efficient for online business owners or potential investors.
3. Elance - This would be useful for online businesses looking to hire specific people with specific knowledge and experiences. It also takes care of the accounting and payments so the business owner can focus on the work being done.
4. Etsy - A great idea for people working from home making handmade goods, to sell their wares online. Would make it much ewasier for Grandpa to sell his lathened woodwork or for Nan to sell her mittens.
5. Mint - This site could help a small business manage their finances and it interacts directly with your bank accounts to keep the information up to date. This is a good idea for the lazy bookkeeper.
