TWO TECHIE BROTHERS ...

TWO TECHIE BROTHERS

India's youngest CEO Sharvan and Sanjay Kumaran... two brothers from Chennai ...

Shravan Kumaran and his younger sibling Sanjay Kumaran are perhaps India's youngest entrepreneurs. Shravan, 14, is the president and Sanjay, 12, is the CEO of Go Dimensions, an app development unit that they founded two years ago from their bedroom in their home in Chennai.

On Saturday, they stood before the 5,500 attendees at an SAP event in Bangalore, and talked about how to ideate, and draw up a business plan. "You should have a strong idea, self-confidence, a good business plan and know about sources of funding," said Sanjay with the confidence that you normally only see in much older people. And he then went on to ask: "Have you heard of dad funding?" The crowd roared.

In the past two years the two have developed eleven apps that are available on the Apple App Store and Google's Android Play Store. The apps have received over 35,000 downloads. Their first app -- Catch Me Cop on the Apple App Store -- was released last year and was a hit. That was a game where a con escapes prison and a wide hunt is launched for him. There are chases through a desert, beach and a maze.

"Abdul Kalam (former president of India) once came to our school and he loved playing Catch me Cop," recalled Sanjay. Shravan is in class 9 and Sanjay in class 7 at the Vael's Billabong International High School in Chennai.

Since the two are less than 18 years, Go Dimensions cannot be registered in their names as per Indian law. So the registration is in the names of seven of their family members who are above 18.

Today, a spare room in their Chennai home is a digital lounge filled with Apple Macs, iPads and Samsung Galaxy Notes. The ''after homework hours'' are spent on coding and debugging test apps, while nibbling on cheese fritters and lasagna. Recently, they launched an action game called Extreme Impossible 5 or EI5.

"We developed more than 150 test apps before releasing the first app, Catch Me Cop. That app was launched within a week of submission to Apple, and that was really exciting. Another app, Alphabet Board, got a rating of 5 on the app store," said Shravan, who credits Apple founder Steve Jobs for inspiring him to be what he is today. "Jobs is the big daddy of clean and intuitive user interfaces and who changed the way we communicate. And how can I forget his famous line, `Stay hungry, Stay foolish'," he said.

Despite their star status, they have their feet on the ground. "Some of the teachers told them they would be more productive at home than coming to school," said their mother and former journalist Jyothi Lakshmi. But they are clear they will attend classes regularly, and also pursue their love for cricket and the keyboard. They admire Dhoni for his aggressive play.

The boys credit their father Kumaran Surendran, director with anti-virus and security solutions company Symantec, for encouraging them to learn programming and play with gadgets. They learnt QBasic, a programming language for beginners, when Shravan was in his fifth grade and Sanjay in his third grade. They learnt to code on Java by reading books and information available on the internet.

Programming on Apple's iOS required a bit of handholding from their dad.

This is an incredible achievement by two brothers Sharvan and Sanjay Kumaran as they have launched their own mobile application firm.

Aged only 14 and 12 respectively !!!

Sharvan is the Co-founder and President of "GO DIMENTIONS" while his brother is Co-founder and CEO.

The two brother are the youngest CEO's of India and also youngest promoters of a company who are studying in class 10th and class 8 at a Chennai school.

When most adults have trouble in understanding Java code,these two kids have used the code to build mobile applications.

The brothers have developed 11 appsfor the Apple Store(eg:Catch me cop,Alphabet board etc.)

Which have been down loaded more than 35,000 times from 20 countries !!!

Their role model is Steve Jobs(co-founder of Apple).

The brothers usually quotes Steve's famous saying,

"Stay hungry, Stay foolish" in their interviews.

Let's Salute these LITTLE STARS FROM INDIA...

NEVER GIVE UP !

                              One day a Man in his 30's got fed up and decided to quit...."I quit my job, my relationship, my spirituality, In fact I want to quit my life"... He said. Then He went to the woods to have one last talk with God. "God! Can you give me just one ... good reason not to quit?" He said. But God's answer surprised him... "Look around", God said. "Do you see the fern and the bamboo?" "Yes", The Man replied. Then God continued..."When I planted the fern and the bamboo seeds at the same time, I took very good care of them. I gave them light. I gave them water. The fern quickly grew from the earth. Its brilliant green covered the floor. Yet nothing came from the bamboo seed. But I did not quit on the bamboo. In the second year the Fern grew more vibrant and plentiful. And again, nothing came from the bamboo seed. But I did not quit on the bamboo. In the third year, there was still nothing from the bamboo seed. But I would not quit! In the fourth year, again, there was nothing from the bamboo seed. But I would not quit! Then in the fifth year a tiny sprout emerged from the earth. Compared to the fern it was seemingly small and insignificant. But just six months later the bamboo rose to over 100 feet tall. It had spent the five years growing roots but six months to shoot to the Sky! Those roots made it strong and gave it what it needed not just to SURVIVE but to be SIGNIFICANT amidst its peers. I would not give any of my creations a challenge it could not handle because I love them too well!" God said to Him... "Did you know, my child, that all this time you have been struggling, you have actually been growing roots." "I would not quit on the bamboo. I will never quit on you. Don't compare yourself to others." "The bamboo had a different purpose than the fern. Yet, they both make the forest beautiful." Your time will come and you will rise high! "..God said. "How high should I rise?" The Man asked. "How high will the bamboo rise?" God asked in return. "As high as it can? The Man replied. "Yes!" God said, "Give me glory by rising as high as you can!

Dear Friends,

He (GOD) will never give up on Us because We are close to His Heart. Never regret a day in your life. Good days give you happiness and Bad days give you experiences. Both are essential to life! A happy and meaningful life requires our continuous input and creativity. It does not happen by chance. It happens because of our choices and actions. And each day we are given new opportunities to choose and act and, in doing so, we create our own unique journey...Keep going...

Remember, GOD WILL NOT GIVE UP ON YOU! DON'T GIVE UP ON YOURSELF!!! You want to ENJOY life? ENDURE it first!

How To Never Give Up

Let’s go through each step together.

1. Stay alive. 

As long as you are alive, anything is still possible.

2. Lower your expectations.

Most successes are not overnight successes. You can work for it. But you can’t expect it. Lower your expectations.

3. Remember that you are stronger than you think.

At times, you might privately think to yourself that you can’t handle the pressure. You have to persist. And just doing the same thing is not enough. You must try different things before you learn what works. Let’s say of the 99 things you have tried, nothing works well. Will you try the 100th thing? If you think about it, the 99 failures have almost no bearing on the success of the following one, as long as you trying different things.

4. Fake it. Other people will do the same. They will never give up, why would you?

Fake success. Everyone does. You should as well. Don’t lie, but act as if you already succeeded. It makes a difference.

5. Don’t compare yourself to people who already succeeded.

Never give up if someone is doing great. You never know how he is really doing.  Even if you think you know, you don’t.

After you have done all of this, you will fall into the dip. Most people who look at this info-graphic think that they are stuck in the dip. The trick is that if you are stuck, you have to keep moving. And sometimes that means going back to square one. If nothing else, never give up because you only might have one last thing to overcome.

Now stand up and say to yourself as loud as you can, “Never give up! Never Give up! Never Give up!”

Bhubaneswar - Smart City

The India Smart Cities Challenge is a competition for municipal leaders and their partners to promote economic opportunity in India, improve governance, and produce better results for urban residents.

What is a Smart City?

1. Cities which use technology to monitor the use of electricity, gas, harvesting, oil, transport, water etc.

2. This is carried out by employing ICT (Information and Communication Technology)

|| : Everything You Should Know About Smart City : ||

A 'Smart City' is an urban region that is highly advanced in terms of overall infrastructure, sustainable real estate, communications and market viability. It is a city where information technology is the principal infrastructure and the basis for providing essential services to residents. There are many technological platforms involved, including but not limited to automated sensor networks and data centers.

According to the documents released on the Smart Cities website, the core infrastructure in a smart city would include:

• Adequate water supply
• Assured electricity supply
• Sanitation, including solid waste management
• Efficient urban mobility and public transport
• Affordable housing, especially for the poor
• Robust IT connectivity and digitization
• Good governance, especially e-Governance and citizen participation
• Sustainable environment
• Safety and security of citizens, particularly women, children and the elderly
• Health and education

                        (Source: http://smartcities.gov.in/)

In a smart city, economic development and activity is sustainable and rationally incremental by virtue of being based on success-oriented market drivers such as supply and demand. They benefit everybody, including citizens, businesses, the government and the environment.

I am very happy for the Initiative taken by the Gov. of Odisha. Hope by smart city plan Bhubaneswar will be most valuable city from economical point of view. Top infrastructure is most important because most of big companies are not in BBSR, which is creating problem for job creating. Most of Oriya young people are going to out of state for job. If more job can create in Bhubaneswar by industrial development then job problem can solve.

HOPING TO FIND ALL THESE TECHNOLOGIES IN OUR CITIES IN THE NEAR FUTURE

THANK YOU

Laugh At Yourself ...

If you can't remember the last time you laughed, it doesn't mean you can't.

It may indicate that your life has been stressful, or that everyday challenges seem overwhelming. In any event, you might be convinced that laughter is great for those happy moments when smiling doesn't take an effort. For the pressured times, who can laugh anyway?

Frankly you might be surprised.

For many, laughter is a powerful healing elixir, or better yet ... natural Prozac. It enables us to re frame our worries and it has extraordinary capacity to help us reestablish a positive and healthy perspective when we're down. Yet even more amazing is the fact that some of the best jokes are based on true-to-life stories about things that actually happen to ordinary people.

why aren't we all laughing?

The answer tells us a lot about ourselves. Essentially there are two basic reasons. The first is that no two perspectives are necessarily alike. Some people naturally discover the light-hearted side of things while others seem to settle into a "doom and gloom" mode about practically everything that occurs in their lives.

The second reason is based upon what few of us ever really want to face - self-reflection and self-image. After all, some of what we do and what happens to us must be very funny! Obviously the comedians think so. The bottom line here is straight-forward. Can you laugh at yourself in a positive way?

So why aren't we laughing?

This answer is simple: because we want to be seen as "perfect!" And when we "mess up," we don't want anyone to notice those ridiculous things we do, or the silly situations we somehow create for ourselves. Yet "to err is human." Change just 2 letters and what we have is "to err is humor!"

Isn't it surprising that the words, "human" and "humor" are so alike? Maybe our ancestors knew something we as a society need to relearn. Simply stated, none of us are perfect.

Frankly I believe the quest for perfection has profound physiological effects like wrinkling of the forehead and a strong gravitational pull on the mouth muscles. I'm also convinced that when we discover the "sense of humor" areas of the human brain, they're likely to be atrophied in those who take everything so seriously - only kidding! I'd hate to be the researcher searching for those regions in some of the people I know.

I suppose we all know those people. In fact, we are those people a good part of the time. The most important question we face is "how to turn that frown upside down?"

The process requires 7 simple steps.

• Give yourself permission to laugh at yourself.
• Rediscover your sense of humor by easing off your drive for perfection and seriousness while encouraging a light-hearted approach whenever possible.
• Stimulate your mind to uncover the humor in every situation and give your laughter muscles a daily workout.
• Allow laughter to replace alcohol, tobacco, drugs and medications when you're stressed and need to cope.
• Encourage your playful side to emerge even during those challenging times.
• Accept every funny happenstance as a gift to be shared. When you laugh, especially at yourself, everyone else will join in. Laughter is nothing less than contagious - and healing.
• Don't take yourself or anyone else too seriously.

There is a fundamental body of medical evidence that shows laughter's positive effects on the immune system. It has also been recently established that future health outcomes are enhanced by "the glass that's half full" as opposed to "the glass that's half empty." The same rationale likely holds true for those who laugh. Someday, I'm sure we'll find what a great philosopher once said, "he who laughs ... lasts"" - Mind Over Matter!

Try To Understand People ... !

Try To understand People

1.  If someone laughs too much, even at stupid things, he is lonely deep inside.

2.  If someone can't cry, he is Weak.

3.  If someone eats in an abnormal manner, he is tense.

4. If someone cries on little things, he is innocent and Soft-Hearted.
5.  If someone become angry over silly or petty things, it means he needs Love.

6.  If someone sleeps a lot, he is Sad.
7.  If someone speaks less, but speaks fast, he keeps secrets.

Why Is India Called ‘Hindustan’ ... If It Is A Secular Country?

Let me tell you a secret: Hindustan is derived from Indus, not Hindus.

From Wikipedia: 
Secular: Not Connected with religious or spiritual matters 

Hindustan (Hindi: हिन्दुस्तान) both Hindustan, Hindoostand or Indostan, literally "land of the Indus", is a popular name for the Indian subcontinent

Hindustan is derived from the Modern Persian word Hindu. In Old Persian, the region beyond the Indus River was referred to as Hindus (which in turn is derived from Sindhu, the Sanskrit name for the river), hence Modern Persian Hind and (as a borrowing) Hindu. This combined with the Iranian suffix -Stan (cognate to Sanskrit Sthana, both meaning "place" results in Hindustan, as the land on the other side (from Persia) of the Indus.

"Hindustan" is made up of 2 words, "Hind" and "Stan".

Hind in Arabic language translates to "Ind" in Latin, as in Indus River. Thus pointing to the land where river Indus Flows. Hence Hindustan is nothing to do with any religion. It's exactly the same as India in Latin, which again means Land of Indus River. And people living in "Hindustan" are called Hindus in the Middle Eastern tongues, relating to Indian in Latin borne languages. Again it has nothing to do with any religion. And it is for a fact that all Indians are Hindus, irrespective of what religion they practice. Hinduism is not a religion per say, it is "the way of life, of people/civilization which began and flourished along River Indus". 

Please do not make a mess of "Hindustan" with stupid questions born out of ignorance.

Get your facts right!

Happy Republic Day ...

“What makes a nation, is the past, what justifies one nation against others is the past“, says the noted historian Eric Hobsbawm.

Hence, when talking of a nation, it becomes absolutely imperative that the past should also be talked about. And the past of India is fascinating and interesting as it is momentous.

Today the country is celebrate its 67th Republic Day, many of us have perhaps forgotten that that day was important. The only thing that remains in our mind now, is the break from the regular work we had. Ironically, today, Valentines Day, New Years day etc. make us feel ecstatic and festive but Republic Day and other national days do not throw us into a similar festive frenzy. The reason being, there is no business opportunity, glamour or show off associated with our national festivals.
