Over the Business Section of the BBC World

[Aetixintro]

as a matter of Economy. Perhaps we can build a fine thread (by the example of Barbara Brooks) on the subject of the Business Section of the BBC World. The section is found here: http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/business/.
For example: some time ago, I requested the addition of the Italian and Spanish stock indices, the FTSE-MIB (MIB 30, Milan) and IBEX (IBEX 35, Madrid). Note that the request only applied to the Market Data (table) lower down on this webpage by BBC. Not that something has happened with it, but I'm satisfied with having aired the view.

Thus we exchange views, theories, emphasis, market forces, opportunities and so forth. Are you interested?

It's now up at least. Write yours on economy, please.

I have myself written some small thing over a comment there today, http://blog.t-lea.net/#post162.

Cheers!

A little irrelevant clutter: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=86janCeyCdg, The Patriot Games or just "the Patriot" by Tom Clancy. Yes, we, Europeans should become more aware over own 501 Million EU market and to DOMINATE it (like USA is doing in USA). So (increased) Patriotism for us Europeans?

There's hardly the same sense of collective identity within the EU as there is in the USA. We've got 23 official languages for a start.

I know, but we can to greater degrees become more used to translation tools for our software!
Thus, very ignorant to the U.S. Americans, normatively probably, we should have guidelines on how to make translation available in all software (where useful) and perhaps to greater extents use translators by mobile phones as a household item, especially for people who may have interests to that end. We should also work toward lowering the threshold of making contact through these translation tools!

Conclusion: we need to overcome obstacles of getting in contact with one another over language differences by the use of technology! F.x.: Germans should travel more to France and make use of these translation tools to the French and the French should be smiling to the well-meaning German to this end. Even the Greek on the fine sun spots for summer holidays should become attractive language wise! We should get out more and meet one another, by use of technology!

Our aim should be to unite our "Oregon" with our "Texas" and "Florida", i.e., Greece, Sweden and Britain/England together or Bulgaria, Finland and France! Not that they are apart, but I'd like people to view these countries closer together than I think they are viewed today!

Hurray for Europe/EU! Cheers!
