Technology drove the world to current from the past...

The World Future Society has been predicting the technological changes since 1966 and all those predictions are happening right now.  in Technology has come long way and will go long way.


FuturistI still remember using Nokia 3310 back in India four years ago. Still remember working on internet where it took almost two minutes to open the google home page and took me Four nights to download one movie back in India. But the internet I work right now takes 3 seconds to download the song, 15 minutes to download entire movie. My cell phone, Nokia 3310, back in India was so strong and sturdy that I could hit someone and one goes to hospital bed for three nights.


Those days are over. Technology made the communication faster than ever before. Companies are launching 2G,3G,3Gs, 4G technologies which will make phones working online computers. Touch screen mobiles are becoming buzz in the market. Everyone, wants touch screen. My family friend bought iPod Touch to his 8 years old daughter. Imagine your knowledge at age of 8. The era of Apple and Blackberry is diverting to HTC and Droid. Droid has been launched in more models of touch screens than any other company. And Droid is becoming the choice of all youngsters. I checked some of my friends phones, and I decided I am buying either Droid or EVO(The most awaiting phone in US market).


Some bright minds across the world are developing technology to replace entire phone industry. One should not forget the way technology changed the world. One should not be surprised after seeing the technology which is changing the human lives. (Link below).

Driving competition crazy Avatar..



AvatarAfter setting up the record revenue in the box office and around the globe, Avatar is set to capture all DVD and Blue ray market. There are very few movies which one need to see once in a life time. I seen Avatar three times in theatre, and ever time I enjoyed it like seeing it first time. Great movie to watch and own at home.
6.7 million DVDs and Blue Ray. That is absolutely great sales for Avatar.
Watching Avatar in home theatre will be definitely great experience for me tonight.

Just wait for two years and they might come up with sequel.

Apple!!! iPad. Really crazy.

When you know someone is gonna create niche and you have a chance to out compete with that product, what would you do? Apple launched iPad. Kindle has become popular to readers and it was going to become the future of publishing. Apple launched similar product called iPad which will give you books, maps mails, iTunes, calender, contacts, videos and photos. They just added value to the future product and innovation let them create a wonderful mirror looking piece with the same price of latest Amazon Kindle DX.  It will give feeling of future when one sees the iPad.
Amazon may come with Kindle which can give you access to emails, videos, and photos. Amzaon may come to communication enabled Kindle which can talk to your friends like the phone. Amzon may come with phone enabled Kindle with little smaller size.

Guy Kawasaki wrote a book with similar strategies. This book tells how one out compete the market with How to Drive Your Competition Crazy.

There is never a perfect monopoly...

As I discussed in " The most productive computer to the most productive mobile...", the phones are being launched in market so fast that consumers will end up buying any phone easily available in market. Google saw phone industry as an attractive income generator and launched its so awaiting product "Nexus One".
The entire new market capture strategy of Google will shake the Apple and Blackberry  headquarters. Apple and Blackberry had long monopoly in smart phones and business phones.
Google adopted a very Dell Strategy: Ship from factory, no inventory in malls and shops. Google is taking out all intermediary costs and selling Nexus One directly with the help of the world's biggest search engine and marketing.

We don't know what is coming next. The world should not forget the Nokia  about this trend. We have not seen any direct competitive product from Nokia yet. By the way Nokia 5800 is also great product.

And Amazon is making its own niche in reading market. We may also expect communication enabled and music player Kindle Wireless Reading Device  in coming years.

Kindle's success feared publishers

Spencer Ante asked a very question, "What's next" in publishing industry. (Jan 11, 2010 Bloomberg: BW)In Jan 2010, Amazon launched its latest version Kindle DX Wireless Reading Device (9.7)  across 100 countries around the world. Ante wrote that  first time in the history,Amazon sold more digital books than the paper books.
Amazon is creating a future monopolistic market for Kindle  readers which is growing so fast and threatening book publishers. Kindle Wireless Reading Device (6
To fight with the growing market, publishers started offering chapters of the e-book or digital book which are less expensive than whole books.
In competition, O' Reilly came with networked book which is published after taking opinions of hundreds special readers. Apple is doing well on publishing market because publishers sell IPhone books' versions which are same as digital, and all these are becoming popular in market.

Fabulous!!!!!!!

There are no other words to acclaim this master piece....
One would lost in Pandora during this movie. The creators of this movie made it such a beautiful that it looked even better than real movie. Sometimes you would just wonder that you are watching real movie but animation.


Fantastic music, awesome editing. Moreover, amazing concept of bond to tribal Nabhi people. Avatar seems the word from Indian language hindi and sanskrit and Gujarati. Also, some more words resembles Indian Languages like Sahelu which in India means bond of friendship.

If anyone haven't seen this movie. You better see it soon.
