Cash of all kinds, the French franc, the German mark, and the Italian lira, is bound to disappear physically. The paper notes and gold coins may soon become curious collections of the pre-electronic age. Digital money can replace every use of cash money. It is true that electronic money has been around for decades. Each week billions of institutional dollars flow through the Interbank Payment System through telephone wires and satellite links. But in the 21st century, entirely new forms of digital money - including electronic cash and \smart cards - will become the means of most personal financial trade. What a great change this will be! Digital credit cards, smart cards, electronic wallets and electronic checks will change our way of life in the 21st century. They are efficient and easy to use.

How convenient it will be!

The Age of Internet has brought e-businesses to our life, which perhaps will form the backbone of our economy. Mom and Pop can go global - all from the comfort of their easy chairs. Citizens will have access to e-government with its website offering a wide range of governmental information, policy andservices.
Racing into the 21st Century, people all over the world are building up a series of IT projects,
which is surely a part of the global future. People all over the world have been
