- Venture Intelligence Blog has a post by Deepak Srinath: There is no big m-payment success story anywhere in the world today, barring maybe Japan. Having said that, India probably has the best chance of producing an m-payment success story. Market factors for an alternative payment mechanism to cash are clearly evident high mobile penetration even in tier-2 and 3 cities, relatively low credit card penetration (98% of transactions in India are cash and cheque), a relatively low internet user base and rising middle class consumption and disposable income. The biggest challenge will remain consumer adoption. |

The New IBM (Dec 08 2006 13:54 GMT) - Barron's writes: In its most recent quarter, software accounted for a fifth of IBM's revenue and, surprisingly, for the bulk of its earnings -- some 40%, up from 29% five years ago. Under Palmisano, IBM is reinventing itself again. It's shed its disk-drive and personal-computer businesses to focus on less volatile operations with fatter margins, and has boosted productivity by slashing costs and spreading facilities around the globe. Welcome to the New Big Blue, the world's second-largest software company -- quite a change from the hardware giant that invented the disk drive 50 years ago and lived high on the mainframe, or the service outfit it successfully morphed into under Gerstner -- one whose revenues had stalled in recent years. |

- Wired writes: LANGUAGE TRANSLATION is a tricky problem, not only for a piece of software but also for the human mind. A single word in one language, for example, may map into three or more in another. Carbonell likes to cite bank, with its utterly divergent uses for the place you keep your money, the edge of a river, and what an airplane might do. Then there are the dramatic differences in grammar and structure across languages. |

- One of the ideas that I have mulling over to resolve the impasse between the early-stage capital needs for a business and the difficulty that there is in raising that capital is to create some sort of stock exchange where entrepreneurs can list their companies right at the start. They can publish an outline of the business plan and provide details of their capital needs. Then, individuals seeking to invest can make their own decision. (I have not looked at the regulatory implications of doing this in India but am sure there is a way to make such a thing possible.) I think one of the most important untapped opportunities amongst the potential investor community are the million or so Indians who are working in software or other technology companies. |
