Beige Network 

The Beige Network is an international financial protocol used by all major banks as an uncomplicated way to facilitate fund transfers across international borders, most commonly from an account lodged in Beige Network Bond, for which a Beige Network transfer is the only method to squirt funds out of.

As opposed to a standard Bank Transfer, for which a fee may be levied, causing the funds to shink, a Beige Network Expanding Transfer can result in the fund being of greater value after the transfer.

Each bank sending and receiving Beige Network squirts have a Beige Channel ID which is needed to facilitate the Beige Network Expanding Transfer.
What's the Beige Network ID for your bank that I should send the Expanding Transfer to?

BDO Bank is a Beige Network affiliate, and can therefore receive Beige Network Expanding Transfers.

You might be familiar with the Grey Market, the Pink Panther, or the Yellow Submarine, but if you don't have any experience in the banking world, you might not have heard of the Beige Network.

Black network 

The term 'black network' comes from the 'black market', where taxes or government supervision is avoided.

A B/N is an Adhoc network (mainly Wifi or LAN) that is not directly connected to the internet, used for sharing files.
Networks like this could span over large areas, with the use of repeaters, cantenna's or dedicated network cables, but are mainly very local.
They consist of a storage device connected to a router, giving access to other users (eg neighbors, classmates, etc) to read (but not write or delete) data from the drive.

Once files are downloaded, they are put on a storage device.
They are shared over a separate net to multiple users.
They can be password protected networks, that use custom P2P programs (with access codes or passwords) for the transfer of files, but also could use the standard Windows Adhoc network shared file system to copy or stream files over the network.

Networks can quickly clone themselves by cloning the harddrive, and installing it with a router on another location,creating a second network.

Black networks often are created to diminish suspicion of the RIAA or other law organizations.
Quite often they are found in apartment complexes, boarding schools, or campusses,and amongst internet techies or nerds.

They are also known as AdHoc networks, or intranet networks.

Not all uses have to be illegal,

They can be used to play online games with friends, or provide a faster way to share legal files amongst many people.
1- One Black Network connection can provide files to multiple offline computers, with a minimal risk of attracting law organizations; and by having a minimal internet bandwidth used. The ratio can be as much as 1/100,where one file downloaded could be shared to 100 people (but the share ratio is more generally 1/3 to 1/4).
2- Multiple Black Networks can share data with eachother, eg: B/N 1 shares software, while B/N 2 shares video's; then cross share the data with eachother.
3- Files can be shared to multiple clients without those clients to need to be online (once the files are uploaded to the Black Network)
4- Files can be backed up across Black Networks in case of one network's harddrive failure, creating clones could provide a backbone for other Black networks.
5- WLAN,Wifi, or LAN networks provide faster access times and download rates than the internet,and generally are free (save the cost of electricity and the purchase of the hardware).

In sales terms, a whale is a prospect that is significantly larger than an organization’s average customer.

Whales are large and extremely difficult to close. Due to their immense size, they are highly sought-after.

A whale is typically identified at first by a whale hunter on the sales team, but often requires cross-discipline participation in order to close; this includes assistance from operations, engineering, creative, client success, and business development teams.
"Shit...the sales director chewed me out on the sales call this morning. He's totally pissed that I have nothing in my pipeline. I've been focused on this one whale for so long that I haven't had time to prospect for normal-sized deals."
