The Internet and Globalization

Written by George McKee

I was shocked byrepparttar results. My UK and Algarve friends quoted me prices that were onrepparttar 118723 expensive side. Some ofrepparttar 118724 quotes that came in from aroundrepparttar 118725 world were one tenth of these prices. I chose a programmer in Pakistan that had good reviews from this bulletin board. I must say that I have never had such a pleasant experience working with a programmer before. His work was excellent, he was polite, enthusiastic and did not ask for payment untilrepparttar 118726 job was completely up and running and my client was satisfied. His product was delivered to me as an attachment to an email in seconds, once he finishedrepparttar 118727 job.

My point? If you want a taste of what globalization is all about, just visitrepparttar 118728 Internet. Information from aroundrepparttar 118729 world is practically free, and services that can be delivered electronically can be purchased from excellent worldwide sources at a fraction ofrepparttar 118730 local price.

Is this good or bad? Your opinion does not really matter because it is already here and upon us.
