Netflix of Academic Journals

The Netflix of Academic Journals Opens Shop
By creating the largest "rental" service for scientific, technical, and research journals, the company Deep Dyve is hoping to do for academic publications what Netflix has done for movies: make them easily accessible and inexpensive for everyone.

The Business Identification Number Cross-reference System

Welcome to another useful site that I located for those of you finishing up business plans.....
BINCS is a search engine of manufacturers and suppliers. Information in this system is cross-referenced to permit inquiry by CAGE, DUNS, Company Name, Phone Number, SIC Code and ZIP code. Information about the supplier is returned from the CAGE File, the CCR File, and the Joint US/Canada Certification Program. BINCS provides linkages to each of these source systems for an expanded view of the trading partner's profile.

Have a great summer break!
