Quora Co-Founder Charlie Cheever Steps Back From Day-To-Day Role At The Company. Quora co-founder and early Facebook engineer Charlie Cheever is stepping back from a day-to-day role at the company after starting the site in 2009. He’ll be taking time off after a very long stretch of work, building and scaling Quora (after building and scaling Facebook). He most recently oversaw the launch of the company’s native Android app a week ago with designer Anne Halsall and a handful of other engineers.
No word on whether he’ll remain on the board yet, but we’re checking. Here’s a statement from other co-founder Adam D’Angelo, who was Facebook’s first chief technology officer: We decided it was best for Charlie to step away from his day-to-day role at the company. The company is much larger than the days when D’Angelo, Cheever and designer Rebekah Cox first conceived of the site as a platform where people could share all of the untapped knowledge they normally wouldn’t publish.
It’s not uncommon for co-founders to leave a company as it scales or reaches a new life stage.

We think we've died and gone to heaven. If you're a chocolate lover -- and who isn't? -- you're going to go nuts over this brilliant idea: creating your own chocolate bar. A site called Chocomize allows you to make your own chocolate bar from scratch. Why didn't we think of that?! First, you pick the type of chocolate (white, milk or dark). Each chocolate bar will cost you anywhere from $6-$10, depending on how crazy you go with the ingredients, but we think the idea is still pretty stellar.

Report: Google Controls 44 Percent Of Global Online Advertising.
ZenithOptimedia has issued a report that contains both good news and bad news for Google. The good news is: Google controls 44 percent of global online ad revenues. The bad news is: Google controls 44 percent of global online ad revenues. At a time when Google is defending against antitrust investigations on two continents this news is most unwelcome. The shares of all the other major US internet companies are tiny by comparison, though together with Google they control 61 percent of the world’s digital ad spending. Overall the internet represents only 16 percent of global ad revenue according to ZenithOptimedia. TV, by comparison, is 40.2 percent of all ad expenditures. Hence Google’s interest in building YouTube into a bona fide TV/cable alternative. ZenithOptimedia says that globally paid search will represent about 49 percent of all online advertising this year.
