My conclusion from the article: advertising in general will slow down, but not as much as in previous recessions, because of internet advertising growth (which arguably lags behind compared to offline advertising). Those are not too far-fet

Yay, I believe the narrative on that one was poor. It lacks some details and makes you ask yourself lots of questions that are not actually part of the enigma. xkcd has the same enigma, with a better wording (with no ambiguities): http://x

Gotta love the end: "Several lines of timeouts mean the packets are being held up, clogged or lost somewhere along the way. Blame the terrorist group or national intelligence organization of your choice." :) Test results: www.president.ir

I hear you. But it might not be as weak as you say. Their argument lies in the last paragraph: "Global Marine Systems [...] says more than 50 cables were cut or damaged in the Atlantic last year; big oceans are criss-crossed by so many cabl

There! That's the kind of info I was after, thanks. Interesting trend for "staggered boards" (taken from Wikipedia): The Wall Street Journal reported in January of 2007 that 2006 marked a key switch in the trend toward declassification or a

I see. Let's pretend you control the Company and you convince the Company's board to issue 11 more shares, which I will subsequently buy. I'd have 11 shares; you'd have 10. Is that enough for me to take over the Company? Once the stock exch

Very interesting. Is that common practice to have this kind of differentiation between a company's stocks? Second (newbie) question: say you have a public company with only one type of stock: 1 share 1 vote. You have 10 shares. I have none,

I really enjoyed that one. I'd be grateful if you'd could suggest some important "classics" readings about this issue: free as the new paradigm.
