Users, Websites and Bots
Back in the late 90s most websites were made for the user. And they are so even now. But the definition of the user has changed over time and become complicated. The concept initially was much like a software, “a person comes and uses a website” and has changed over time to “a person comes [...]

Why Apple leaves out Car Audio?
This is not a rumor or a hoax, this is just a suggestion. We all know that iPod is probably one of the most used devices in the car in conjunction with other devices that already exist. But why doesn’t apple get into the market directly and give us front row right from the driver’s [...]

I would have loved if my Mobile and TV did this
I have an internet enabled phone, which I use primarily to talk (90%), text (8%), click images of vague animals and impromptu kid actions (2%). I did try using it to receive my emails, at least read through them or reply back but the lack of screen space is just a killer. That’s how this [...]
