The Business of Life-Management

The new hot topic of the business world: life management. No, not when you go to talks about how to organize your time, or handy apps that remind you when to go pick up your kids. Full out, everything managed for you. It is simply an angel in your pocket.

According to this Economist blog, the new website Personal.com manages everything in your life, from what type of oil your car uses, to how many frequent flier miles you have accumulated. It is now old fashioned to keep track of all these things seperately, and to be honest, why hasn’t someone come up with this earlier? It makes managing your life sooo much easier.

The only drawback I can see is the possibility for companies to intrude into your life, to “pull a Facebook”. With every possible aspect of your life online, companies can come in and find out how to target you specifically. Or possibly even identity thieves could come on, and better figure out how to take advantage of you. If the website manages to prevent these things from happening, this website idea is golden.

Entrepreneurship has moved away from buildings, and into cyberspace. The entrepreneurs of tomorrow are now building websites, creating MIS systems that are completely user based, and changing the way we live our lives. Maybe Sauder should offer website creation courses, seeing how it is the business of today, and even bigger business of tomorrow.
