Facebook Express Wi-fi Arrives in Underdeveloped Areas in India
India is working with Facebook to provide underdeveloped areas with access to the Internet. In early 2016, Facebook attempted to work out a partnership with India, but hit roadblocks with their crafty algorithms. Mashable reported: 'In January, India’s telecoms regulator rejected Facebook’s Free Basics program after more than a million people registered complaints abut the plan, which would have given free access to specific websites chosen by Facebook.' After digging into Free Basics by Facebook developers, I was able to find out that companies and individuals have to request to be apart of this new service. It also let

An Introspective Glance at Startup Culture on Small Business Saturday
Small Business Saturday follows the madness from Black Friday each year by inviting consumers away from the big box stores, and down to Main Street to help spur and drive the local economy. Yesterday was also Record Store Day Black Friday, which is an annual event that provides local, independent record stores with limited released vinyl to bring in shoppers. This initiative creates a large buzz for indie record stores. What Small Business Saturday is missing from their annual event is driving force that will draw in crowds. The element that Record Store Day has benefited from is the communication
The Standing Rock Native American Reservation has Become the Epicenter of the Environment
The Army Corps of Engineers sent a letter on Friday to the chairman of the Standing Rock Sioux Tribe explaining that the violent confrontations have taken place, and they are shutting down the campgrounds, (area north of the Cannonball River, including the Oceti Sakowin camp). After December 5, protestors will be cited and charged with trespassing if still on the land. The trespassing citation is just a way for government to try and clear some of the land for the oil companies to dig under the Missouri River. According to standingrock.org, the website notes that: 'The tribe maintains jurisdiction on all reservation
Record Store Day Black Friday 2016 New Releases on Vinyl
Record Store Day Black Friday provides new music on vinyl records to independent record stores around the United States.

This has grown in such popularity that they have added a second day on Black Friday to give the opportunity of releasing limited music a second day in the year. In my area within Southern Illinois, we are kind of spoiled with indie record stores in comparison to large cities that may have fewer, and larger populations. The ability to be
