BEGGING ON WALL STREET There are three beggars on Wall Street. The first beggar wrote "Beggar" on his broken cup. He received $10.00 after one day. The next day, the second begar wrote "Beggar.com" on his cup. After one day, he received hundreds of thousands of dollars and an offer to float an IPO on the NASDAQ.
The following day, the third beggar wrote "e-Beg" on his cup. Microsoft, IBM and HP sent coprorate vice-presidents to talk to him about strategic alliances and offered him free hardware and software consultancy. In addition, it was reported on CNBC that e-Beg uses 95% Oracle technology and that i2 announced the launch of BegTradeMatrix -- a B2B industry portal offering supply chain integration in the beggar community. The portal's infrastructure will be based on Metamatrix's technology to integrate client historical and real-time market data.
