    I use Bitbucket instead of Github because it is way, way cheaper than Github even though its pretty much a clone.

    Whatsapp has never done any advertising in India and had more users in India than Facebook before it was bought by Facebook. Indians don't have a very high trust barrier to overcom…

    The proposal to regulate VoIP apps is before TRAI only because of lobbying by telcos who are still in denial over the world moving towards data and want to hold onto their voice ca…

    I don't believe they ever had any intention of getting the poor online. They have so far never released ANY data regarding how many of the users of Free Basics are first time Inter…

    The new regulations by TRAI does not mention anything about regulation of voice apps (or about slow/fast lanes). I think you have misinterpreted the comment by SaveTheInternet.in. …

    Serious question - apart from a desktop app and support for emails other than Gmail, is there any difference between Inbox and Mailbox?
