Some of the reports are published freely. Most notably, the Democracy index places Czech Republic six places above UK and seven above France. Shocking for some maybe. But in line with my recent feelings about coming back to the country.

However, they have the
“Who Is Afraid of Google” title on the cover page, while inside you only find the other article from The Economist, “Inside the Googleplex”. That one was commented by a Google engineer only as “surely medially attractive”.

Visa, MasterCard and the comprehensive service network offered by industry players, most notably First Data Corporation, is a great example of how SaaS will have to evolve.
