Making Toondoo appeal to children is the challenge, and the truest test of my product's creativity
Is there a place for traditional newspapers in a world that is increasingly going digital
Argument that there is no Internet penetration in India is a myth
Remembering my teacher
What I learnt today from a Twitter feed -- 50 things to keep in mind
The most valuable work lesson -- Don't promote yourself away from what you love
We look for the fire -- the passion to really perform and prove oneself - and the ability to learn
A thought from the book, 'Micromessaging'
Thin line between being obnoxious and being friendly -- the benefit of multicultural work environment
A tip for time management -- Priorities are like arms
Views about the young generation
Deep down everybody is good, and how comics are shifting from the traditional approach of absolute goodness and badness
Internet helps us go beyond labelling to tagging
A dream I'd like to chase later in life -- become a full-time mentor

Work that has gone into Toondoo, to make it fun to use
Business model of Toondoo
Use of toons in books, newsletters, T-shirt printing
Best way to teach is not to seem that you are teaching, and that can be done through stories enriched by toons -- example of how a zebra got its stripes

A full story book -- example of life at school
Toondoo cartoons used in publications -- an example from Young Minds
Flash is the technology back-end, and the final output is a JPG file, and we are considering going on the mobile platform
Toondoo-ers who are volunteering to work along with the shoestring team
Character-maker facility for help in portraying current affairs themes
Children authors who want to write a whole story with toons
What is the Toondoo style of comic-making
We have more than 3.5 lakh users, about 1000 new users come in everyday, and 2000-2500 cartoons are made daily
