Student Sermons

Rashmi Bansal - Editor of the Jam magazine runs and amazing blog... Must read material!

Another interesting blog from Anand, who works with Infosys Consulting in UK. A highly geeky blog but with some very interesting stuff!

Billmonk

I came across this start-up called Billmonk, a company founded by Gaurav Oberoi and Chuck Groom, both Ex Amazon. Its a service which allows people to easily keep track of financial debts among friends! Its a simple concept and works very well, if you are keep borrowing money only to pay it back next month or eating out with friends, so that someone knows who has to pay next! My guess is that this would work interestingly well in the Indian subcontinent, since most people are usually finicky about who's paying. Off course, its necessary for the community you connect with to have access to the Internet... well.... this product is certainly good, but will probably need a lot of work to get started to something like this in India. Pity, they don't have currencies in INR. I think there could be a sea of change in tracking social money between friends... and girl-friends too... :-)

Back from Vacation...

Back from a two week vacation in the south. Was in Chennai for 3 days... the weather now is fantastic. I was actually able to roam around Mount Rd, without perspiring! Shopped for some hard drives and graphic cards at Ritchie Street, the mecca of electronic goods in chennai.

It takes some time from a long vacation to settle back in at work! Deleting spam is a favorite pastime of mine.. enables me to take a break and think! One of my clients, an early stage VC firm, has finally decided on the candidates he wants to go ahead! I was right... McK consultants are good candidates for PE/VC role. More PE searches in the offing... Need to roll my rolodex.

Finally found some time to Blog... Will be back!
