Web app developers spend most of our time not thinking about how
data is actually transmitted through the bowels of the network stack.
Abstractions at the application layer let us pretend that networks read
and write whole messages as smooth streams of bytes. Generally this is
a good thing. But knowing what's going underneath is crucial to
performance tuning and application design. The character of our users'
internet connections is changing and some of the rules of thumb we rely
on may need to be revised.
In reality, the Internet is more like a giant cascading multiplayer game of pachinko.
You pour some balls in, they bounce around, lights flash and —usually—
they come out in the right order on the other side of the world.

For our fifth annual roundup, BusinessWeek readers nominated
a record number of young entrepreneurs. Meet the 25 most impressive
Welcome
to our fifth annual roundup of the country's most promising young
entrepreneurs. Before we get started examining the new batch, consider
this question: Who is more likely to start a business: A college
student or a worker with a few decades of experience? Yep, you guessed
it: the experienced worker.
It turns out it's boomers, not twentysomethings, who start the most
businesses in the U.S. Over the past decade or so, the highest rate of
entrepreneurial activity belongs to the 55-64 age group. The 20-34 age
bracket, by contrast, had the lowest rate. That's according to a recent
report by Dane Stangler, a senior analyst with the Kauffman Foundation,
based on data collected from 1996 to 2007. It echoes research by
entrepreneur-turned-academic Vivek Wadhwa, who found that twice as many
tech entrepreneurs create ventures in their 50s as do those in their
early 20s.
So not only are these entrepreneurs navigating the
toughest economy many of us have ever lived through, they're also
vastly outnumbered by older, more experienced competitors, who usually
have more contacts and capital. That's even more reason to continue to
give young entrepreneurs the encouragement, respect, and awe that
they've received since becoming cultural icons during the dot-com boom.
Stangler
says he's not suggesting young people aren't entrepreneurial or won't
be. "The cachet of large, established companies has taken a hit. Job
tenure has been falling for a long time. Employment is not going to
recover in the very near future. People across all age groups are going
to take the future into their own hands."
