currency

Soon, I'm facing a new project where the need for up-to-date currency exchanges is crucial.

Just finished the first session at the Innovation Marketing Conference, which was a presentation by Russ Klein, the CMO of Burger King.

U.S. Treasury Secretary John Snow says that even if China decides to cooperate with the United States and revalue its currency, the U.S. will still have a trade deficit with China.

The United States Treasury said that it would give China six months to make its currency more flexible, or it would name the country a "manipulative trading partner" in its report to congress.

China has rejected the deadline that the United States Treasury gave it to revalue its , and suggested that the U.S. worry about its own internal problems first.

Jeff Prosise has written an article "Currency Converter with ASP.NET Web Forms", he pretty much explained how to load XML data with ASP.NET from the "Rates.xml" file. In this article I have created Currency Converter Server which can be scheduled to extract the data from third party site and build the "Rates.xml" dynamically.

You might remember an ad campaign in which a woman approaches a soft drink vending machine alongside a young male executive. The executive rummages through his pants pocket to find, to his dismay, that he has no change to purchase a cool drink on a hot afternoon. The woman then pulls out her cell phone, presses a few buttons, and a soda can drops down from the vending machine. The ad was meant to show a future of a seamless, interactive world. The SIM Access Profile, released by the Bluetooth Special Interest Group (SIG), makes such transactions a reality, allowing a consumer to use a cellular device to obtain, for example, a 50-cent soft drink without spending 25 cents on a cell phone airtime charge.

This article will show you how to do two things: 1. Round numbers to the nearest hundredth, with two digits following the decimal point. This can be useful when displaying prices or the totals of orders. 2. Insert commas between every third digit (right to left) for numbers 1000 and larger. This can make numbers easier to read.
