On how to help Indian villages with technology

Read an intersting article on Bridging India's digital divide with Linux today. Hope you all will like it too.

Nice to see technical advances going on back home.

Another thing that can help in Indian villages something like this Bolivia Solar Panel LED experiment.

I hope someone back home is listening..... is someone?

Love,

Hi all,
I have been thinking about this for a long time now, and especially after meeting Ghosh Uncle in ITI Bangalore. So here goes:
I started the Animesh Pathak's Crazy Ideas blog today. I will be posting any and all brainwaves I get over there from now on. And you, my blog readers, are requested to comment on the posts with any suggestions/criticisms/appreciations/business plans :-).

Hope to look at that blog in some year's time and feel good :-).

I am BACK .. well.. nearly :-)

Hi all,
Posting this from Bangkok airport Business Class lounge (Thanks to Ujj!). Will be back in the city of angels by Sunday midday PST, and the mayhem will begin!
Since there is a lot of work already waiting for me there, there might be a slight delay in posting the report/pics, but good things come to those who wait :-).

Met an interesting girl in the plane, she was learning jewellery design :-O ... now that is something you don't hear everyday! Lets see what more I get to know about her trade ... and about the dairy farms :D.

Anyways.. back to work... so nice to see this great speed after a month almost!

wait for the photo goodies... they are on their way!!!
