Angel Investors
October 23, 2008
Investor Angels:
The term Angel originated in New York City on Broadway to refer to the investors who supplied high-risk capital to launch musical productions on Broadway. Today, an angel is a person who acts as a private investor in someone else’s business.
Angels are successful business people and professionals who are willing to risk in order to gain what they hope will be extraordinary returns. While angels take risks in the same way as venture capital firms, they differ in that they do not make their living with these investments. Angel capital is also referred to as “informal venture capital”

“The power of the web is in its universality. Access by everyone regardless of disability is an essential aspect.” Tim Berners-Lee, W3C Director and inventor of the World Wide Web
For most of us, the internet is proving itself to be a valuable tool in our ‘I need it know’, information based world; we are fast becoming tied to it for learning, entertainment and communication.
As a result, its easy to beleive the claim that the internet is universal: inclusive and without limit, fostering a global society. But, any Web accessibility expert will argue otherwise. They’ll tell you the Web is not a level Playing field for all users. In fact, for those with accessibility issues - Seniors, persons with disabilities, people using new technologies or other model computers with slow internet connections - the Internet is not the Great Equalizer, but often a giant obstacle to getting the information they need.
If, according to Tim Berners-Lee, access is an essential aspect of the Internet, then why aren’t more websites accessible to all?
