you don’t know any facts about india.. fuck you

I think your guest realized that you took him to places where only top 1 percent of the Indian population have access.

I think when he said the real India, he meant the places in India where Indians in the middle of the social-economic bell curve live, work, and hang out. Unfortunately, he is correct in assuming that these places are slums.

Even the Indians here at work in corporate America admit that to this day, most of their countrymen do not know or need to know what a computer is. When you are worried about where your next bowl of rice curry will be coming from, you don’t have the luxury /privilege of having to make a decision about whether to use Google, Yahoo, or Bing.

Well let’s accept it that VAST people in india are illiterate but in what ways?

Don’t know how to write? or Don’t know how to read? or Don’t know English?

Who don’t know English for then Google create local language version. here you can count people who just don’t know how to read or write in illiterate community. but tell me if vast people illiterate in read then why Times of India is the “world’s largest circulated English daily” and India’s total reader-base is close to 100 million(source:wiki)

I think International media just need to represent India as a pour and backward or so called third world country. i had a personal experience that i wanna share here. One of International journalist with a European news agency wanna cover some news here n India. I know him personally so he contacted me that he need to shoot something good for the report. when he was in India i shown him good places like gov buildings, collages like IIM, malls, temples, and many things. after all the tour he told me that he wanna see real India. I mean what you mean by that? so he explained real India means slums, Porty, backward areas etc?!?

So slums and backward areas etc is only real India? Good infrastructure or good places cant be the representation of India?

Student at IIM or IIT or NID do study and getting world class qualification in filed of Management and Technology & Designing. they all think that they spend lots of money by their own pockets so for sure they can run for big Jobs so they can cover their expanses and for that they gonna find good jobs only out side of India. This is the thinking of the students. They think that government not spending money on us. our parents spending money from their pockets but that’s wrong..who building these reputable institutes? who is giving grants? who is spending in education infrastructure? the answer is Government and after the all spending, students going out side of India for posh jobs and money.

so government spending money to train student and to export them in out side of india. According to me IIM and IIT are brand factory to export hub of students.

Lots of my friends are study in abroad. I asked one of my friend that why you’re not staying in India to contribute your knowledge and skills? why you have to go outside India to get job and to do studies? he answered me “whats in India? there is nothing in India. There is no future in India. What my county did for me? nothing then why should i live here?”

My answer is, don’t think that what’s your country did for you but think that what you did for your country.

I frankly can’t see any reason to use bing.

In fact, I would venture to say that illiteracy & poverty also inversely correlate with cultural development.

Even the Indians in England and US exhibit some primitive cultural practices that prevents them from assimilating. Indian engineers in corporate settings don’t bath daily, and thus exude strong scents. Indian women employees wear strange outfits to work, totally ignoring cultural and corporate norms. Both men and women speak LOUDLY in Hindi in the presence of their White co-workers. I once knew an Indian lawyer who would take off his shoes and run around the office barefooted all day. He would scramble in a panic dash to find his shoes when a client comes in, but didn’t have the sense to leave them on. I wonder if Indian doctors take off their shoes and walk around the operating room bare-footed during surgery.

If you are in print media then you are suppose to be big,good and powerful.

So if GM declares Chapter 11 Bankruptcy because they cannot pay off their debts (read became poor) does that mean they lost what they learned and became cavemen?

Unless ofcourse ur firm is called Microsoft I dont understand why anybody would make such a radical change to Bing, when Bing has not even estabilished it’s credibility!

Try comparing search results, you’ll see what I mean.

India’s Technology is expanding so quick i remember last time when i went on holiday to india (Bangalore) I have to say it is developing dam fast…

I think india’s current generation are more into Web And Techonlogy stuff?

At first, I thought David Ord was joking when he said there are 1 Billion indians who are illiterate. But based on almost a half billion Indians making less than $1.25 a day, may be it not too far off that there must be hundreds of millions of Indians who are illiterate.

Wow, that’s a lot of poverty. Indians need to focus more on the war on poverty and less on the race in technology. It seems there is a considerable brain drain out of the country probably due to greed. Large numbers of Indians who are smart leave the country to come to England and the US for posh jobs, rather than staying in India to contribute to the growth the economy. Without an adequate pool of human capital, a country as a whole will never escape mass poverty.

All this talk about google and tech seems more and more irrelevant.

And ya, in India we have over 5000 newspapers published in more than 22 different languages. Do you think the great media heads running them are doing it to provide your so called, “Toilet Papers” ?
