New York Subway and Bus Metrocard: Now available On the Internet, First Time in History
New York, NY (PRWEB) October 24, 2007 -- Amazingly, the New York Subway Metrocard could never be purchased on the internet. In a historical first, nysubway.com now sells the New York Metrocard online.
In the past, the consumer has been limited to buying the New York Subway and Bus Metrocard from either New York subway stations or official retailers.
Noel Turner, president of nysubway.com says "Tourists and locals don't like being forced to buy Metrocards in the New York City Subway stations, which are not the best places in the world to be flashing money and credit cards - especially late at night."
Mr Turner has also found that the official Metrocard retailers and vendors are lacking "Bricks and mortar locations around New York City also sell the Metrocard, but the highest possible profit margin on one Metrocard is only 3.0% and the expiration dates can be short - this encourages the retailer to keep inventory extremely low, resulting in many out of stock situations". Mr Turner continues "Its quite bizarre, stores need to carry it to encourage foot traffic, but don't want to actually sell it because of the low profit margins."
Mr Turner adds "Now, anyone with internet access can purchase various denominations of the Metrocard online and have them delivered to their home or office."
Mr. Turner goes on to say "Metrocards are due to get replaced in the next couple of years, with smartcards, but until then, nysubway.com will continue to provide the consumer with online Metrocard sales" - It remains to be seen how the public takes to using their credit card as a smartcard at the subway turnstiles.
nysubway.com is an independent operator and is not affiliated with the Metropolitan Transit Authority (MTA) of New York

One of the Golden Rules of Internet Marketing

Admittedly if the site is causing you hours of work every week and still only making you a couple of dollars income each month, then yes, remove it.

Internet Faxing: The Cutting Edge of the Paperless Revolution
The word paper comes from the word papyrus, an Egyptian writing material produced as early as 3000 BC and formed from beaten strips of papyrus plants native to that region. However, the invention of paper the way we know it today comes from China. Originally, silk and bamboo were used for writing documents, but because to the expense and clumsiness of those mediums other materials were explored for keeping written records. During the Han Dynasty, a eunuch called T'sai Lun experimented with different types of plant fibers such as mulberry, hemp and textile waste mixed with water to make a pulp which he then placed in a mold and dried in the sun in the form of sheets or thin mats. These thin mats were made not only for documents but also for ...
