I'm on a pretty fast line, and I am sometimes appalled with how long it takes pages to load, and often it comes down to loading content I have no interest in: * comments * ads and images * headers * sidebars * toolbars * menus

Chad offered me and my friends a place on his lot to store our stuff. He told us all about how safe his lot was and how easy it would be to find our stuff. Now Chad says that to pay his bills in the future he's going to let strangers pay to

I am neither lawyer nor accountant so what do I know. I can believe that the various ways the sale of Instagram is structured and to whom can have huge tax differences. But I don't know.

Facebook was organized as a California company and selling securities in California. Why would you think the state that creates and formalizes the laws under which a company organizes wouldn't have an interest in how that company sells secu

I am not sure why you would say that. Presumably Facebook at that point in time, is a business incorporated by the State of California. I don't know of any national corporation process. It's not clear to me (and I am certainly not a lawyer)

Did they pay some logo consultant over six figures for that? Did they run a competition for student and professor entries at their various schools? It does look nicer than the DeVry shield it pays homage to. http://www.gmkfreelogos.com/log
