The
digital information platform known as the internet has certainly bridged gaps between states, cities, countries, and races. Plus, it has even acted as an efficient means to proliferate information in the most accessible, efficient, and most affordable way! No wonder we see all types of cock and bull stories on those internet sites! Well, some are generally information that compares to a long load of crap, while others are very much substantial, in a positive manner, that is.
What interests me more is how India is fairing in the information age. These guys certainly know a thing to exploit when they know it! I'm talking about India's move towards the development of open source programs. Yes, the programmers in India are basically interested on this new aspect of
software development, and are even more generally intrigued in what it could do for the status of their country's economic and technological departments! Yes, they see the beauty of open source development, and what it could provide a poverty-stricken country like theirs.
But, there are certain issues which should be tackled by the Indian government so as to functionally increase the productivity this country's people could do with open source application development. I think they need to support the programmers of this country so as to organize the mode of their software development, specifically in a direction towards the entire world's purposes. This is because some groups of Indian developers tend to develop software for their own purposes. If they want and need a software to do this and that for them, then all they have to do is write it down, right? But I think with a more organized approach on open source development, I think India will move up above the rest of the countries regarding digital information technological development. Well, that is, information technology that's totally free, and fully functional to answer the needs of people on this planet!
