Don't just be the change, mass-produce it... 09/20/07 08:07 - cvikashWhat does it mean to : "Be the Change, we want to see." Many of us grapple with this advice, so did Pranav (Silkboard) and I, when we recently met.

Hubli-Bangalore-Mysore, Full Speed Ahead!! 09/17/07 14:30 - tsubba

This, apparently, is the "Just In Time" concept to de-congest Bangalore. person tsubba's post | forum 5 Comments | Read More
