Very happy to hear “An Indian rocks in American IT profile”.

The reason behind is, they (Americans) are providing “Elephant salary” for Indian IT people.

Hmmm…

Hope Indians will use back to work for India…

Currently the new Indian search Engine evaluating the Search Marketing. We (Indians) hopes it will occupy the Full Indian Market in 2020.

And another one is, I can say all IITs is build for United States of America.

Yes, he can repeat the miracle with Tumri.

The new equation is infinity + infinity = infinity .

Good luck Raj

“Whatever venture he pursues, he has the blessings of top Google brass Eric Schmidt and Sergey Brin. Product management vice president Susan Wojcicki honored him with a large plaque signed by a few hundred Googlers at his farewell party at the Googleplex in Mountain View, Calif., few weeks ago.”

it’s a pretty smart play – all he has to do is come up with some new innovative stuff, get his old buddies at google a little scared about it, and get Google to buy tumri so he gets to cash out a second time. well played.

All they had to do was build the ad server & yield algorithms and a new business was born.

Tumri should plan adsense like program, I think Rajaram will take such program to its pinnacle.

It’s too late — Tumri has been struggling for too long. Gokul can help on the margins. AdSense was easy for Google because they already had hundreds of thousands of advertisers with unspent budget. All they had to do was build the ad server & yield algorithms and a new business was born. Tumri doesnt have any real advertisers or unspent budget, which means they have a slog ahead. Gokul doesn’t do slogs.

The pasture always look greener at the other end so better to be careful before making any call.

I’ve met Gokul before at conferences and you would have never guessed he was such an accomplished fellow. Down-to-earth, humble, and gracious -which can’t be said about everyone in the valley – especially ones that have accomplished far less.

Good luck and stay classy!

Breathtaking academic background. Bright future ahead!

Umm…that’s because he is a demi-god. Valedictorian at IIT is an incredible achievement, and then to back up academic honors with real-world success is impressive. This guy is a stud and Tumri should be peeing in their pants with excitement.

you make him sound like a demi-god. Google adsense isnt all that ground breaking.

and No I wasnt being kept awake at night wondering what ex-googlers were up to.

This is actually good news to us all. I read from somewhere that Silicon Valley started from one great idea into another, mainly, people leaving to start something else. I hope we’ll all benefit and see something interesting coming out from Gokul! Good luck!

Come on guys. There is no Google Mafia. Googlers haven’t done anything since Google.

You have to earn the name Mafia. Like the PayPal Mafia did.

His work at Tumri will tell whether the adsens was just fluke or he has some substance.
But look at his credentials.
IIT, MIT ,then Director of one of the most successful product at Google. Still 33 only. Good luck Gokul.
