This comparison is unfair to Powerset and to Google. Powerset is a very new company that is trying to solve a subset of search and with a different focus. Google has been in the search space for last 10 years, relentlessly innovating, has a lions share in the search space and the focus is to […]
I have not really done too much searching for online bus booking website for India. I only knew of www.raj.travel that doesn’t work on firefox (Shame on you!). I was googling for some other service and this google ad caught my attention. http://www.redbus.in.
Nice clean website. Works on firefox ( <<clapping>> ). I liked the logo […]
Today (December 11th) was the first day of TiE 2007 summit (http://www.tiesummit.org/). I was there for 3-4 hours. Got to hear Montek Singh Ahluwalia, Uday Challu - founder of iyogi, Pradeep Kar, and various others including panelists from Sierra Ventures, SIDBI, Citibank etc. I particularly liked Uday: he was very objective and to the […]

San Francisco bay bridge street view
Street View allows users to view 360° panoramas of street-level imagery. It almost gets you in the real world. No more virtual experience. Way better than second life! […]
78% of the bloggers write blogs to prove their intelligence (Remember, 48.9% of the statistics are made on the spot! ). But I am posting this to prove how big an ass I am. Absolute ignorant good-for-nothing IT guy! Ok, let me cut the chase. Just yesterday (May 28th, 2007), I came to know […]
Disclaimer: It is not about web 2.0 or technology. I just found it fascinating enough to blog!
My wife bought an expensive Nike shoe for her father without knowing his fit. She told the Nike retail shop that she would exchange or return it if it does not fit her father. Well, it did not. So […]
