Iconfinder
2007-05-11 01:26:00 For people like me, who are not perfect when it comes to graphics, a service like Iconfinder (http://www.iconfinder.net) is a boon. The service has a no nonsense interface of a simple field and a search button which you can use to search. Though the first page does not have the advanced search options (please do not ask for the reason as I do not know) but once you do a search you can refine your search further by selecting the size of the icon (there are 7 sizes to choose from) and also the background of the icon (transparent or solid color). Further you have an option to choose the number of results each page should show. Currently there are 21,711 icons which have been indexed. Ouch! My poor publisher cut me off.

Interviewers get interviewed
2007-04-29 08:02:00 So far, we've played the role of interviewer and have had the experience conversing with several entrepreneurs and startups in India. However, when we recently had the opportunity to switch roles with Satish Talim, a RoR evangelist based in Pune, India and when he asked us to share our story instead, we were more than willing to oblige the request of such a great personality. Read our story on Satish Talim's RubyLearning.com Also, the story seems to have been seeded at dZone where you can cast your valuable vote. BTW, there are several other unsung contributors on Startups.in/India to whom we are very much indebted. ..and yes, kindly excuse this self-plug. :-) Ouch! My poor publisher cut me off.

Behind every problem lies an Opportunity
2007-04-26 00:01:00 You do not have to look else where to find an idea for your startup. Look into your self. See what could be done better to improve productivity or what could be improved to better your life and the life of those around you. Then work on the solution. Manish Arora is an entrepreneur who got this right. In this episode, he shares with us his personal experiences which inspired him to startup Kincafe.com. Learn how he he did it. With families spreading across the globe, do you find it challenging to stay in touch with all you grew up with? As an NRI, it had always been a challenge to stay in touch with my family back home. This is true especially, after the birth of our two lovely sons, when life just got busier. My wife and I started losing track of the expanding family of our cousins back home and realized that lack of time & distance had created a major void in our life.. We were not alone with this problem and most folks who have moved away from their hometown / home coun... More About: Social Networks , Opportunity , Problem , Ever , Behind

burrp! turns hot
2007-04-20 08:41:00 Our first love, burrp! gets a facial and puts more oomph. It is now even more irresistible. We've requested Meenakshi Goveas, a user of burrp! to tell us what she thinks about the new and beautiful burrp! and here is what she has to say: Powerful search features, ability to further refine and sort the results while sporting a very neat and clean UI - that's the new burrp! What I like most about it is that it now presents the already well structured information in a more powerful and informative way to its users. On the new search feature -- The new search now sports two tabs - "what" and "where" - and allows users to look for their favorite cuisine or restaurant by locality (eg. "Indian" in "Koramangala" or "Bombay Post"). Once you get the results, the application lets you further refine the results by rating, business type (lounge, bar, restaurant etc.) and cuisine type.

What it takes.....Execution!!!
2007-04-15 22:06:00 We couldn't have conveyed this mantra any better. Mr. Pulkit Soni got it right... Hi, I am a 26 year old resident of Indore city and have completed my degree in Financial & Social Economics from Australia last year. After I returned to India, I tried to emulate the one and the only principle on which the Aussie companies function. And that is-the principle of Execution , just do it philosophy. Within a month I made up my mind to start my own company. Despite all the back-holding speeches about how I'm too young to do it, about how difficult in India it is and so forth... this April I floated my own firm Sohga Impex Pvt. Ltd. I am managing through quiet well and being a service and a business company, the workload is twice as much. But still, I am proud of myself and the basic seed of entrepreneurship that is sowed into me. That seed is known as-Execution,just do it!! Ouch! My poor publisher cut me off.
