Most of it is true.
I would want to add that our education system does not support/encourage a start-up/business/creative mindset.
Even today, most of the bachelors degree courses are oriented towards teaching for and endorsing high grades (just to qualify for jobs and PG entrance exams) rather than developing critical thinking.
Great work on the look and feel of the portal. Looking forward to read your story on the blog.
Not sure why adsense at my place of work blocks your blog for the reason: Not allowed to browse Anonymizer category.
Agree with most of what you said. Just a note: 'Bhaiyya' is a 'taboo word' (or mildly derogatory, if you prefer) for folks from UP. Source: I am from UP, India.

I might be wrong but imo, this problem exists with prepaid connections only. Try a postpaid SIM in your phone and if it works, ponder switching to postpaid.
I had this problem on a Whited00r-installed iPhone 3G with airtel prepaid. Never noticed with iOS 5 or 6 on my iPhone 4S.
Just to add, out of 65,000, few visas are reserved for nationals of Chile(1400) and Singapore(5700) due to free trade agreements. These visas are called H1B1 and if unused, apparently they are added to visa cap for next year. Never heard about any increase in the cap (due to unused Chile/S'pore H1B1s) though.
A great success story. She just mapped her own personality online, and tried to make money out of it - which her company did, boatloads of. Could be a classic example of "look around, and try to solve a problem that you face yourself and people like yourself. that would be a great idea for a startup".

Hi All,
I am new to web development and have been learning python and django at codecademy.com and djangoproject.com.
I would appreciate if some of you talented and experienced folks could provide pointers to few websites developed in python-django which are open-source or have sample code available. (I tried using hnsearch to see if this is already answered)
Thanks for your reply. I agree with you and I meant that failures are not really that bad, and mostly help you to learn from mistakes.
Also, what's next for Tiny Piano ? How do you plan to keep it simple and yet add features to keep it relevant for new and old users - both ?
Great job. And thanks for the inspiration. I realize that I will have to fail a multiple times before something great happens.
Q: Would you mind me asking what is your revenue model and how much success you have seen with all the streams ?
By the way, I downloaded your app a few days after the commercial aired, and my kid absolutely loves it. Thanks again.
I upgraded my iPad to iOS 6, and left my iPhone 4S at iOS 5 and compared the navigation results in India. Apple maps were a letdown in this part of the world. I have used iOS 5 Maps application a lot in Northern India and had far better (if not perfect) results.
Now finally I can upgrade to iOS6.
