Sorry must of dozed off.

Tell me what this has to due with a company that is not based in the united states?

But, not to leave you empty handed, I think you should keep an eye out for buzz-inc.com coming online and a junior college class in business 101. LOL :)

The legal concept of incorporation.

Not that this has to due with said "buzz-inc"

* In the United States, corporations are identified by the term "incorporated" added after the business name, such as "Texas Instruments, Incorporated", or by putting the word "corporation" in the name of the company, as in "Netscape Communications Corporation".
* In Germany, Austria and Switzerland the GmbH ("Gesellschaft mit beschränkter Haftung", meaning "limited liability business association"), as well as the AG ("Aktiengesellschaft", meaning "business association with shares") are the most common comparable concepts.
* In the United Kingdom the titles Ltd. (abbreviation for limited company) or plc (abbreviation for public limited company) are used for corporations.
* In France, Switzerland, Belgium and Luxembourg the term "SARL" or "société à responsibilité limitée" ("company with limited liability") or SA "société anonyme" (abbreviation for anonymous partnership) is used, *Spain, Portugal, Poland, Romania and Latin America use the title SA (Anonymous Partnership) or Ltda (Limitada or limited liability) for corporations.
* Denmark and Norway uses the title A/S for stock corporations (Danish: Aktieselskab, Norwegian: Aksjeselskap), while
* Sweden uses the similar AB (Swedish: aktiebolag). Finland uses OY (Finnish:Osakeyhtiö), OYj for stock corporations (Osakeyhtiö, julkinen) and KY (Kommandiittiyhtiö) for private enterprises.
* Italy uses "Srl", or "Società a Responsabilità Limitata" (limited liability company) and "SpA" or "Società Per Azioni" (stock corporation).
* The Netherlands uses NV and BV.
* Singapore uses Pte. Ltd., meaning "private limited" which is the equivalent of a U.S. incorporated entity. Malaysia uses Sdn. Bhd., meaning "private limited" which is the equivalent of a U.S. incorporated entity.
* Most commonly used title of a corporation in Latvia are "S.I.A." (Latvian: Sabiedrība ar Ierobežotu Atbildību) for "Limited Liability Company", or "LLC" ; and "A/S" (Latvian: Akciju Sabiedrība) for "Joint Stock Company", or "JSC". In Latvia titles "S.I.A." or "A/S" are put before the name of the corporation.
* Albania uses "Sh.p.k" (Albanian: Shoqëri me Përgjegjësi të Kufizuar) for "Limited Liability Company", "Sh.a." (Albanian: Shoqëri Anonime) meaning "Anonymous Partnership", for stock corporations and Slovakia uses s.r.o. (spoločnosť s ručením obmedzeným meaning "business with limited liability) and a.s. (akciová spoločnosť meaning"business with shares").
