I'm not the kind of guy to toot my own horn, but I believe most of you understand, sympathize and approve of tooting my country's horn. While us Finns have plenty of things to be proud of - Nokia, sauna, and I'm sure there's other stuff - our music is a wide-open door into the dark well of the Finnish psyche, a nation with one of the highest suicide rates in the world and 24 hours of darkness in the winter.

SAN FRANCISCO -  Few entrepreneurs have truly disrupted a single industry. Niklas Zennstrom has done it to two - and he has his sights on a third.
