The world is just a click away

In my previous blogs I have discussed about how india is moving ahead and how the world appears to be very small to us. Now I would be talking about How and when we made the world just a click away.
Let me talk about myself first I am working for a leading MNC as Senior software engineer. Along with this job I work as an adviser to one of the company called adas technologies ( www.adastechnologies.com ). This company is basically more of website development company along with some of the software operations where I come into the picture. I have done some work to make the companies product line a strong one.
Why I am telling you all this is because I am about to talk about how india is adopting to the changed in the internet world. I would love to share a small instance that took place few days back when I was in a meeting with one of my clients at adastechnologies (www.adastechnologies.com). His age was around 55 and while talking to him I got a gut feeling that he knows very little about the internet. Then what he is doing with me you wont believe he was meeting me for a website development for his business. And whats his business? He does import export of goods from and to China. He wanted a portal where everyone can come can have look at the product line that he can offer to be import or export from India.
Did anybody imagined 5 yrs back that you can buy anything from China sitting at your home and the delivery is done at your home without any custom issues.
The website (www.importsfromchina.in) provides a total solution for imports of any products from China to India and also the other parts of the world. One just has to name the product he wishes to import. He would get that at his door-step in the minimum possible time and at the most economical price. One may be a merchandise importer, a trader, a builder, a hotelier, an industrial consumer or he may simply be a household consumer.
This is what I would say is the biggest achievement that India has done. A totally computer illiterate is now the owner of a single window service and one of the leading portals.
I love this webworld.
