Backdated products in India

I would like to share a great point of view shared by one of our Indian friend..on a post Nexus 7 tab on sale in india at just Rs19,990

He wrote that :

"Whether it's Apple or Google, most foreign companies treat Indian customers like Indians are unwanted. Apple generally launches a backdated product in India when a better version of that product is introduced in US and others parts of the world (iPhone 5 was slight exception). Google's Nexus 7 was available in most countries - except in India - from beginning of launch of the product. Now, as Google's updated version of Nexus 7 is out in most countries, we hear Google Nexus 7 "will be" available in India. But, as I write the comment, it's not yet available in India (I checked their store). And how come the price of the tablet Rs. 19,990 in India when it's $199 in US? It just is clear they treat Indians poorly. In this situation, Indians and Indian companies should start creating their own cool stuffs. When US denied to give supercomputer to India, we Indians created our own supercomputer. Then what's a big deal in creating a tablet? We can very much create our own cool stuffs and we should start doing that now. After all, it's the work of Indian engineers (and engineers from other countries too) that allows Google or such companies to build cool products. If you fellow Indian engineers and entrepreneurs have minimum self respect, then stop waiting for Google or others to throw their surplus or backdated product at us at excess price. Let's stop being happy to own a backdated iPhone. Let's create with pride our own cool "Made in India" products."

So can't we really think of making our own Tablets and other products.?

I think everyone should share this with your friends online or offline and let everyone know about this situation and
if you really support India and the comment made above.....then please make a comment.. what you think of this situation and what  can we do on our part.?

Join Facebook on mobile and get Rs 50 talktime

Wohhh it was great when I heard this astonishing truth that Facebook is giving Rs50 talk time to its new users who join facebook via mobile.



Facebook has quietly launched this new talktime offer to lure new registrations via mobile phones by offering talktime worth Rs 50 for free in return.

Popular social network, Facebook has started a programme in India under which it is offering new users free talktime worth Rs 50.

So if a user registers himself/herself to Facebook through mobile using the URL - m.facebook.com/tt, his mobile number would get credited by Rs 50. Obviously, this offer is meant for new registrations only and is valid for registrations through mobile only.

After registration, a user has to provide his mobile number on the Facebook Talktime page. "Once you sign up and confirm your account, you will receive the talktime within three days," Facebook said.

Facebook has currently around 50 million users in India, 30 per cent of which reportedly access the social network through their mobile phones. It would thus be interesting to see how many Indian users actually signed up through this offer. Also if it becomes successful, Facebook would have a large database of phone numbers belonging to Indian users who voluntarily provided them during registrations.


It would be interesting to see if any other social network would like to take the same route of offering free talktime or freebies just to register and join a social network.

So guys what are you waiting for have your 1st free talktime joining facebook via mobile.....enjoyyy.
