- 8. Dealbreaker The site is run by Bess Levin, a humorist cum reporter who has successfully managed to turn Wall Street's biggest names into cartoon characters — and into her most loyal readers. The articles may be laced with humor, but beneath all that wit lays a remarkable truth that often cuts closer to reality than more sober news reports. Bess's trick is that she's not laughing at Wall Street; she's laughing with them. Nonetheless, Dealbreaker is always good for a quick laugh in the middle of the day or even a penetrating insight into the way Wall Street thinks.
- 9. Calculated Risk. The site provides concise and very accessible summaries of all the key economic data and developments.

- 15. Google Docs A Google doc is a very useful web-based collaboration tool. It allowed me to edit my documents and save them directly to my drive. This prevents me of losing my documents if my computer breaks up, and I forget to save it on a USB. Also, this tool ends with the barriers of geography. Even though my classmates are not in the same place in which I am, I can do or edit a paper in team using this tool. My team and I will be able to edit the paper at the same time, and we will be able to see the different changes and comments that the others are doing. Also, this tool allows me to convert my work to different formats like .docx, .pdf, .odt, .rtf, .txt o .html. Finally, using Google docs, I can save all the different drafts that I could made along the path because it did not have a limited space.
- 16. LINKEDIN
- 17. LinkedIn As a student, one of the main advantages that I found from using LinkedIn is the professional connections that you can create using it. By connecting with professionals I build a very serious network of people where I can release news and other important aspect of my business. Moreover, while using LinkedIn I can find job postings where companies are hiring people in my position. Finally, by using LinkedIn I can increase my social networking with various people across the globe. In this way, I can start my own company page where other news or announcement can be posted.
