How do we know that the space is expanding if there is nothing to compare it to?

I was wondering about this - shouldn't approvals regarding things to be put in space, which is similar to doing thing in international ocean waters, need some international agency approval and not from just a USA govt agency?

How are they able to know how far it's coming from?

I'm not a web developer but I am aware of Alexa ranking. That can be used to see how popular some website is worldwide or in a particular country.

This seems like a good system. You have organised by importance, tagged by the main context of friends/family etc and also added notes to them.

I was looking more closely at the Google's Contacts app I never realised there are labels (tags) and also ability to add custom fields and notes too. Did you ever think of storing all this data (notes) in the contact itself so that if you ever exported all contacts all that data is available right there with you?

Hey, thanks for the reply. This seems like a good way to start organising my contacts. I have a couple of questions about your system - 1. Do you have one note per contact? 2. Do you lookup the notes each time you want to find out the context about some contact? Seems a little tedious, is it not?

Can someone tell me where did Apple get all this new data from? Was it taken from OSM, bought from Here Maps or some other provider or just built on their own from sattelites and on the ground surveys?
