Outsourcee

This is the other side of the story. The other side of all those jobs that disappeared from the US of A, the ones people debate over endlessly on Slashdot. I'm one of the people who do those jobs. When I read those debates on Slashdot, on CNN, on the Indian Express, I wonder if they know what it feels like to be the guy who's taken those jobs. Here's what it's like...

Name:
Location: Karnataka, India

My writing tries to do the one thing I'd like to be able to do : Express emotion in the restricted vocabulary of language. Besides that, I find I'm an outsider to the human world, constantly trying to catch and analyze thinking patterns, adding them to my psyche when I can.

Virtual Windsock

Rediff has an series of article on Indians starting up their own companies and making innovative products. The first is here :How to succeed, Whizlabs style.
This sort of vindicates my last post, about product companies becoming the new trend. Not the fact of the company existing - but the fact that the trend is considered newsworthy by Rediff :). You are going to see this sort of articles by the dozen in all the papers soon.

PS. I've been remiss in updating this blog for a while now. Thank you to all the concerned messages you sent. The main reason was this competition I'm entering : Stories around the Coffee Table. I'm almost done with my entry, wish me luck!

I am not sure whether we are ready to say India stands for Innovation. Well, I have seen innovation doesn't matter much.

We are a country ruled by money, short term gains impair us from seeing long term visions.

To make money you don't have to be creative. Just keep your eye and ears open. When you spot someone's innovative idea, copy it, mass produce it, market it.

In software industry, guys with ideas aren't valued. Guys who get more work from client are.
