Basic rules on giving feedback
Saturday, September 22nd, 2007Blogging and User Generated Content (UGC) are the current mantras of the day but it has a lot of noise (many times or even most of the times!). I read very awful/rude feedback messages on blogs these days. Just yesterday I read a series of comments about a portal ...

Villages log on to escape bribery
Saturday, August 11th, 2007We have not only inherited English language from the British Raj but also "corruption". We have learned to live with the system.

Kids are very internet savvy in India today, but mostly in Tier-I cities. I am waiting to see that kind of growth in Tier-II cities. I heard about Orkut from my teenager ...
Yahoo! Please don’t ignore your “registered” users :-(
Thursday, June 7th, 2007I have been using Yahoo since its inception (or little after its inception). Customer service was rocking at Yahoo in early 1990s. If my memory serves me right I am pretty sure Yahoo email was released after the release of their directory. I use to submit the URLs of mahesh.com ...
