...designed to address information needs for the business/IT community. EBizPort’s collection-building process is designed to acquire credible, timely, and relevant information. The user interface provides access to collected and metasearched resources using innovative tools for summarization, categorization, and visualization. The effectiveness, efficiency, usability, and information quality of the EBizPort system were measured. EBizPort significantly outperformed Brint, a business search portal, in search effectiveness, information quality, user satisfaction, and usability. Users particularly liked EBizPort’s clean and user-friendly interface. Results from our evaluation study suggest that the visualization function added value to the search and analysis process, that the generalizable collection-building technique can be useful for domain-specific information searching on the Web, and that the search interface was important for Web search and browse support. load (Bowman, Danzig, Manber, & Schwartz, 1994), and the questionable quality of many resources available on the Web.

...3 Sources of Moral Obligation by Josephson Institute on February 14, 2011 A duty is an obligation to act in a certain way. When the obligation is based on moral and ethical considerations, it is a moral duty. Often we think about moral duties in terms of rules that restrain us, the “don’ts,” as in don’t lie, cheat, or steal. Such rules comprise the so-called negative dimension of moral duty because they tell us what not to do. Since ethics is concerned with the way we ought to be, however, it also includes an affirmative dimension consisting of things we should do — keep promises, judge others fairly, treat people with respect, kindness and compassion. Sources of Moral Obligation Moral obligations can arise from three sources. The first, strangely enough, is law. 1. Law-Based Moral Obligations. Good citizens have a moral as well as a legal obligation to abide by laws; it is part of the assumed social contract of a civilized society. If a law is unjust, however, (such as those that mandated ethnic and religious persecution during the Nazi regime and those that discriminated against a person on the basis of race in South Africa and elsewhere) there may be a moral obligation to disobey it under the specific and demanding doctrine of civil disobedience. Many, but by no means all, of these moral standards of conduct are so fundamental to healthy social relations that they have been codified into laws. For example, most aspects of the moral duty to not endanger or harm others...

...timely and accurate financial records is imperative if any business is to succeed. You want to set up a system that is as simple as possible, yet acquires the necessary information to help you better manage the business. Over time, you will learn to read your financial reports so that at a glance you can determine how you are doing, and look at making changes which will correct those things that you are not comfortable with. Should I hire an accountant? This depends on what your skills, time availability, and complexity of the business you are starting. In general, most all business should be using the services of a tax advisor or accountant for some matters. The tax codes change rapidly, and keeping up with all the changes and provisions make it difficult to be a do-it-yourselfer in this area. You can do much of the work yourself, and then have an accountant review and make recommendations. Another approach is to use the services of an accountant to begin, and then take over aspects of the job as you are comfortable with it. You should evaluate your time, or the need to hire someone in-house, and determine whether it would be better for you to focus more attention on sales and marketing, where you can earn more for the company than you will pay for hiring a professional. Do you have the need for a full time employee to do the books, or would you...
