What's affecting me, my clients, my colleagues and other global small business owners:

• Snapdeal buyout fails for Alibaba but they are still on the lookout for Indian e-tailers.
• What a world without language barriers would look like.
• The Export-Import Bank of China extends loans to companies going global.
• Have a look at how cheesesteaks and pretzels go global.
• How America is strangling small business.
• Factors to consider on your first import.
