The Good The Bad The Ugly Of Social Networks & Community Sections On Business Websites Have you ever come across a business website where the design, look and feel oozed professionalism and gave you the feeling of being on a credible website — until you logged into the community section, forums or the social network section of the site and find yourself in unfamiliar surroundings again?

I recently had a discussion with a technology professional turned entrepreneur and new mom — and this conversation brought up some interesting points which may prove helpful for anyone considering building a portal. Her new venture was a result of her passion for her work, her newly found situation with a month old baby, and finding herself wanting to work on a flexible schedule from home. The venture would be a portal targeted at women in a similar position who could benefit from encouraging articles and being able to share their experiences. During our conversation, several issues and solutions came up that are good points to consider if you plan to build a portal. And these are points that need a lot of thought but are easily overlooked in the excitement of getting started

The fascinating thing about a paperback novel, just like so many other products we purchase, is they have a limited life span of usefulness.
Hi Friends, Many times we came cross the requirement when we need to access the dropdownlist’s selectedindexchanged event inside the gridview, like in a shopping cart changing the item’s quantity or binding the other dropdown based on the first dropdown.
