Getting information off the Internet is like taking a drink from a fire hydrant.

Mission Statement:
BusinessBay.com attempts to condense the vast amount of information that is available on the internet
into useful categories and serve it up with a quick, easy, and intuitive user interface.
Our mission is to continually strive to simplify the organization of access to information and improve the quality of the
information which is retrieved.
Objective:
No scrolling around a long page of information. No jumping back and forth among various page
loads to find what you want. A click of a button displays the information instantly in a
panel on the screen.
Current Methodology:
The home page is intended to provide a brief summary of what is going
on in the world and some quick reference links to a few sites for a more in depth look into each
category. The emphasis is not on the quantity of links but rather on a few quality links supplemented
by a specialized search capability developed with Google's specialized search engine for access to
more detail.
- The page is designed to fit on one computer screen. Depending on the resolution of your monitor you can
increase/decrease the size of the browser to adjust it to your screen.
- The program has been developed with Internet Explorer 10/11 and tested using Foxfire, Chrome, and Opera.
There are minor variations among the browsers as to how the page is rendered.
- Some information such as links may be repeated in several places like in the grocery
store where there is a section for barbeque sauce but it is also sold next to the ribs
because people may use those two items together.
