Google is far more than just a Search Engine. Its applications are widely respected and gratefully received. Some of the more common Google apps are Gmail, Google maps, and Blogger which are all uniquely useful in their own right.
One of the lesser known additions to the Google juggernaut is Google Docs, which is a great online office package; it includes a word processor, a spreadsheet program and a presentation application.
It might seem obvious that Google Docs is built around the foundation of Microsoft Office, so if you are proficient with Office, you’ll be more than capable with Docs as each of the applications is similar to the Office equivalent of Word, Excel and PowerPoint. And added advantage to this is that you can actually use documents you have already created in MS Office and edit them in Google Docs.
Probably one of the cleverest innovations with the program is that you get a free gigabyte of online storage space, so you can access your docs on the move. Google Docs is completely free, and if you already have Gmail account, then there is no need to even register. Click here to get started.
A good tip to selecting your first online trade:
Choose big companies which you can see are doing well.

The huge number of people visiting South Africa for the World Cup won't be as high as initial expectations. This is according to the firm Grant Thorton who estimate the amount of visitors will be around 373 000, considerably less than the early estimates of 483 000.
So now this has placed small and medium businesses under huge economic pressure because of the over-estimation of expected profits from the 2010 World Cup. However, it seems as if the overseas tourists will now stay for an average of 18 days which is four days longer than originally expected, and will obviously mean more ‘spending time’ in SA. But some economists have played down this projection saying it is optimistic.
So basically, overall, the World Cup is not expected to be such a huge cash injection to SME’s as originally expected. Maybe the main way they will turn huge profits is if they continue to jack up their prices with exorbitant markups to rip-off unsuspecting, wealthy tourists.
