[sharechat] ChromeG, plain english

Finally, an announcemnt with a bit of detail. Admittedly CGB's announcement wasn't as simple as it could have been, but congratulations to CGB for releasing more detail about the plan than what most e-com ventures do. While there could have been more, I was quite surprised that the announcement kept on going.

Still, a gripe about the language. "Business vertical"? This is as bad as "mezzanine finance" we got a few months ago. The media should take some responsibility for making company press releases easy to understand. The lawyers and accountants are now pushing for "plain english"; why can't the MD's and the media?
