This is a constant worry for me. I upload and share things into places and I usually assume I will never be able to get back to it. So I bookmark the link just in case

Nope. China, Brazil, Russia are all humongous % populations - disproportionate representation.

Wow. "Ultimately Crash fit into the PS1's memory with 4 bytes to spare. Yes, 4 bytes out of 2097152. Good times." - the things we take for granted today!

Britain has a 100% english speaking population and ridiculously high education and cultural standards. How many British CEO's run powerful companies?

The fact that middle/lower class Indian-born and educated individuals are now running corporations with the size and impact of Google, Adobe, Nokia, Deutche bank, Pepsi, Microsoft and the likes is just down right stunning. They've broken through cultural, racial, societal, stereotypical, psychological and economical barriers at an extreme level to do so. This needs to be academically investigated.

Nope, still pretty surprising. China, Brazil, Russia are all humongous populations - dramatically fewer reps than India.

I was looking around for his name too. Author: Perhaps a quick intro / context might help at the top of the page.
Because you're not buying features or consuming what you're buying through the app.

Is Amazon supposed to give 30% of all purchases made through the Amazon app? ofcourse not. If Amazon made additional search features an optional upgrade for the app, I'd imagine Apple would want a piece of that.

Nope, still says "Indian nuclear scientist Abdul Kalam has died"
Why was the fact that he was the president removed from the title?

Please update to: "Nuclear scientist and former president of India, Abdul Kalam, has died"

Self control of what?
Ping me, happy to consult for reasonable levels of work.

At some point the focus shifts and diverts away from the story to the presentation.

While impressive, I'm a little uneasy.

Over-valued companies will have to take down rounds - employees who joined late will get their options roasted. A large number of small and new VC funds will get wiped out. This time, the difference is, its the professional players that get hit (VC's, institutional investors, hedge funds etc).

Last time, tourist investors (newbies and the lay man) invested in stocks that crashed. Private huge rounds are protecting the tourist investors by virtue of lack of access.

There is a nagging horizontal scroll bug on your site. I think one of the DIVs is overshooting the width.

Finally! This beta has proven beyond reasonable doubt of their reasoning behind shuttering aperture.

In love! Phenomenal product, this.
