You say you want a revolution?
Well, there's been one going on for the past few years as
electronic banking enters the mainstream and the teller becomes
as much a part of ancient banking history as green eyeshades.
As evidence of the change in banking, today's bank is judged
more on the design of its Web site than its building.
About the only thing you
can't do online is withdraw cash from your account. For that,
the venerable ATM is still supreme.
In this series, we look at
the ways you can carry out a vast array of financial transactions,
from getting a credit card to buying a house and almost everything
in between, with some keystrokes and mouse clicks. But is
someone watching you? We close with a look at the issue of
online privacy.
