Paul Graham of Ycombinator fame, has published a wishlist of the ideas they would like to fund coming season. The original article is available here. Since i hate unnecessary clicks, i am pasting the post here. All you startup junkies, its high time to get your brains working. Buy some caffeine on your way back […]

For the first time, rajasthan is doing good in cricket. Rajasthan traditionally is not known for its cricketing heroes. I do not recall any famous rajasthani […]

Now i am happy that internet was not this developed then, as it would have lead to solving this problem in constant time. It just requires lateral thinking though :-). I found this […]
