We love the online market-place for freight. Its great to see a site used by large
companies to communicate available freight to various logistic providers.
Question
Is the basic functionality of posting and finding freight free and will it always be
free? No fees, no hidden costs, what a concept.

Hello World! The Shanghai Expo in a nutshell completely awesome. The ability to move the number of people around at dizzying speeds shows a nation adept at dealing with large numbers and even better infrastructure. Everything is seamless there are no delays with the trains buses or vehicles ferrying visitors around the massive complex. It is no small feat and the transportation company Agility should be congratulated on the incredible planning and management of this large scale project as well as the other 18 companies that worked on transport to make this event a success. You could not help but be gobsmacked by the sheer precision the Chinese operate at, even though the queues were long and the waiting time to get into some of the venues although frustratingly long was ordered and structured. Lines were kept and they seemed to move flawlessly through the barricades never have I seen a line move with such precision. The CSSC pavilion would have to be a highlight a massive structure showing the ship building past present and future and believe me the future is incredible. If you are a transport fanatic this is absolutely a must see event and the sheer scope of what is possible in the foreseeable future is something everyone should get the opportunity to see. Ships and cargo are quite magnificent and did you know that Monaco yes Prince Albert helped the Chinese with the initial planning of Shanghai to make it a reality. The size and message is strong whole cities could be floating around with everything from satellite dishes to sports stadiums greenhouse and eco friendly transport will be in big demand. The UTIP area was inspiring all for making transport green talking about sustainability and the need to carry on these incentives way into the future. The ecological impact on oil reserves and the fact that they are precious and what is involved in them is just a wonder to behold. Australia you may have spent 83 million dollars on our pavilion I am sure not many of our citizens are aware of but it pales into insignificance when you behold the greater world’s developments. If you are an Aussie you may get the themes but if you are not I am sure the Chinese and the rest of the world are still confused as to what Australia represents. Get out and see the other side, you might come back and see that we are just about as likely to control climate change or hold an Expo on the scale Shanghai has as fly to the moon. My message to all Australians is get global and fast we are in danger of becoming a shadow not only on China’s landscape but that of other nations as well, and by the way we are starting to slide. We have our future generations to look out for, Australia let’s get with the program and Mr Rudd start implementing some of your policies and get every child involved in learning Mandarin, after all you know the importance of it why not start implementing some changes now why you are in government because by the time you retire our nation will be retired. Shanghai congratulations!
