Today's NewWork News Web Tip: Worldbiz.com (Friday, 7/6/01)
In a world where nearly everything will be connected to nearly everything else, one can expect some degree of homogenization to develop, at least with respect to international business in which people have to sing off the same page to some extent in order to get their business done. For example, we've already reported on the furious rate at which languages appear to be becoming extinct and how, more and more, English has become the standard language of trade and diplomacy. At this tremendously historic transition point, though, we are still heir to a great variety of creeds, tongues, traditions, and cultural patterns which are a product of the many thousands of years when people around the world were not much connected to one another. If you need to know more about business practices, etiquette, and protocol in any of many dozens of nations, Worldbiz.com is a place to begin.
