WSJ.com: China Journal (51) permalink
Chinese Internet giant Tencent Holdings last week launched a legal battle against a smaller rival by suing 15 former employees who jumped ship to join the upstart. The fight is attracting considerable attention among China’s job-hopping technorati for the light it shines on the industry’s reliance on non-compete obligations. The fight, which netizens have taken to calling “Litigation Gate,” pits Tencent, the parent of hugely popular Chinese chat service QQ, against 51.com, a social networking ...Shared by Gianluigi (39) Tangos (22)Contribute comment - Restaurante Posibilia (1)

Why if all super minds and geniuses in the past had embraced creativity as the main source of ideas that change the world; the school system does not give it the special place it has?

In India, state and local governments enjoy a time-honored system of balancing their financial books with easily available no-interest loans.
