An App for Call Drops

The issue of frequent call drops is a red hot topic. The regulatory body TRAI and Cellular operators association have been desperately trying to find a common ground but not without passing the buck. TRAI says the operators need to compensate the user for call drops which seems to be a noble enough intention. On the other hand the operators body says telcos can't do much as the spectrum available is not enough. The matter is still subjudice.

However I was wondering if a third party app could be created, validated and authenticated by the regulatory body and telcos association. The app could track frequency of call drops based on key criteria's consolidated based on similarities. The data generated may also help telcos to check the root cause of call drops. The same data would also help the regulatory body to check if the problems beyond the control of telcos or they just shunning the responsibility.

Since the app would benefit both it maybe be a joint effort between the regulatory and the association. Hopefully this would reduce contentious issues and help find a common ground.

Social One or One Social

Digital world is blooming. Social networking site is the in thing. You have blogger, tumblr, wordpress, typepad for blogging. LinkedIn for business networking. Referral Key for sharing references and business leads. Twitter for micro blogging. Facebook for friends and relations. Instagram for sharing pictures. StumbleUpon to find new cool websites, images and photos across the web. Then there are aggregators like Feedly. Add Pintrest, Delicious, Reddit, Four Square....the list could simply goes on and on. And a hell lot of us want to be on almost all of them, track them and keep following them. But can't really keep up with it for we have to constantly log in and out from one app to another to another. Though OpenID solves the problem to some extent one still has to log in and log out. That's where the idea of Social One comes in. Social One would be an interface which accumulates all my social accounts on to a singly platform from where I can pick and choose what I n...

On unemployment

How about an site on unemployment? On the same lines like my first salary (one of my earlier posts) why can't there be a website that lets people talk about unemployment. People will share their experiences about how they came to deal with a topic that is looked upon as a taboo and social stigma rather something which is a harsh reality of life or business need. Unemployment could be further categorized into those who have not been able to get any employment for whatsoever reason and those who have been employed / were entrepreneurs / businessmen before exigencies or circumstances pushed them into unemployment. Their viewpoints and experience sharing could help someone gain new perspectives and possibly avoid the same mistake and encourage others to take different route. I know this would be easier said than done. It would be big challenge to come out in the open talk about the challenges and distress caused due to unemployment but if something good is going to come out of it...

My First Salary

Can people share their experience about the first salary. For many people the first salary is really special and a moment to cherish, a stepping stone to achieving their dreams. To spending the money on themselves, to treating friends, to offering it to their parents, to some investing it...varied people have varied ways of celebrating the moment special. Probably the website can help people connect with each other and share what they actually did with their first salary. They can also act as mentor / counsel to others about what they need to do to earn their rightful first salary. How to negotiate, how to deal with the anxiety of being the first timer and other such insights which can be really helpful. Worth a thought but however needs to be explored further to bring it into reality.
