asitdhal··on The Origins of 'Horn OK Please,' India's Most Ubiquitous Phrase
In India, we drive on the left. If you want to overtake from the left, please HONK(just to alert the driver). If you want to stay behind(not to overtake) its OK. If you want to overtake on the right, PLEASE overtake. This is what means "HORN(on the left), OK(at the center) and PLEASE(on the right).
asitdhal··on The Startup Zeitgeist
Very less people think Microsoft is a threat. This shows, no body wants to build an office app(like Excel or Word). We don't really see a lot of innovation in slide show applications(I used powerpoint in 2006 and now I also use the same).

The world also lacks innovation in Desktop App. Web Form and C# is very popular and Java Swing seems slow or not attractive. Qt has confusing Licensing terms.

I guess someone should think about some good frameworks for Desktop(like a universal look and feel in Javascript or some open specification).
