In the byroads of Basavanagudi
Ten years ago, when software methodology maharishi Ed Yourdon visited India, he wrote about India’s software industry having matured into what he called “Stage-2”—wherein the Indian pitch had changed from one of bodyshopping of cheap programmers for onsite software coding and maintenance, to one touting high-quality offshore software development “on time, on budget and with a high degree of predictability.”

Relevance of IT products in global value creation
While services can become commoditised in a short span, IT products have the capability to create both real value in the present knowledge economy and perceived value through branding.

Feedback
Recently I came across an Express Computer special issue on security. A special issue on this topic is a great idea as it is a key topic within the industry today.
