Long(ish) Post on Content Delivery Networks or CDN

A few days ago I wrote a long-ish post about Content Delivery Networks. I am definitely not a technical writer, and decided to write about a topic I knew very little about till recently. The post ended up becoming much more comprehensive than I anticipated; at nearly 3,700 words. I am am posting the link to that article in this forum, knowing that I will get some good feedback and some brickbats (both welcome) to make the post better. Have I missed any obvious names? Are there any other sources or resources that will make this post more useful to the readers?

Here's the link
How to Use CDN or Content Delivery Networks for Website Speed

Summary:
In my post, I write about using content delivery network or CDN for delivery of different types of content:

a. images (e.g.files from Flickr) that you can display on your website,

b. Videos (e.g.embedding a YouTube video) on your blog,

c. Audio (e.g. Podcast episodes)

d. Other files,scripts, or text.

This post is not a review, but more like an introduction to the un-initiated. You may find some familiar names in the post, and some lesser known ones.

Thanks to @seriesn for the egging.

p.p.s: For the curious: This site is hosted on SmallWeb Singapore, CMS is Bludit.
