Child labour videos

Nearly 90% (in my view) of child laborers are rural children. Most migrate to cities and end up begging, prostitution, domestic helpers, or other odd jobs.

Till now rural economy is only known as agricultural economy and never emphasized on add-on value products. Governments have to consider growing and generating rural employment. read more

FOSS

Being in Kerala now, I was interested to read the posts by Shuchi etc., on FOSS.

While I am all for putting some necessary curbs on students in schools, because they are minors, I believe teachers should be given maximum freedom, as they are responsible adults, in deciding what sites to visit, using chat, downloading, installing software they think convenient and so on and so forth. read more

Randy Pausch's Lecture

I came across this lecture by Randy Pausch and I found it very thought provoking and impressive.

Its about realising your childhood dreams and helping others do the same.

There was an article in new york times regarding it.
