Comment "Highest revenue of 323 Apple stores worldwide" (Score 1, Insightful) 241

The firm has only four stores in China, two in Beijing and two in Shanghai; these four stores in China have generated on average the highest traffic and highest revenue of any of the 323 Apple stores worldwide according to a statement by the Chief Financial Officer peter Oppenheimer back in January.

I know revenue isn't everything, but maybe Apple should be learning something from these guys, and not the other way round...

Comment Re:Amount of domains (Score 1) 96

Don't forget the millions and millions of local domains (.co.uk, .us, .it, .co, .za, etc.).

Also, 100 million domains translates to about 1 .com domain for every 10 people using the internet (assuming 1/6 of the world population uses the net at least once a year, I didn't look it up now, but it's around there) - which means the average domain has 10 unique page views per year (that's really, really few), is it still really so hard to believe?

Ah ok, that makes sense. You told me something I didn't know, thanks! Still... CSS3 must be close to having two independent implementations by now...? Or have the W3C constructed the necessary tests, but the browsers are failing it on some parts?

Comment CSS *2.1.*! (Score 2) 97

This is a quote from wikipedia, which might explain why CSS 2.1. is only *now* part of the recommendation:

The CSS Working Group began tackling issues that had not been addressed with CSS level 1, resulting in the creation of CSS level 2 on November 4, 1997. It was published as a W3C Recommendation on May 12, 1998. CSS level 3, which was started in 1998, is still under development as of 2009. In 2005 the CSS Working Groups decided to enforce the requirements for standards more strictly. This meant that already published standards like CSS 2.1, CSS 3 Selectors and CSS 3 Text were pulled back from Candidate Recommendation to Working Draft level.

Even so, what has the W3C been doing the last 6 years!?
