Hi Friends,

Even as I launch this today ( my 80th Birthday ), I realize that there is yet so much to say and do. There is just no time to look back, no time to wonder,"Will anyone read these pages?"

With regards,

PLANET GOOGLE - RANDALL STROSS



====================================================================================

When I read any book, I scribble my comments / notes in the margins


These reflect my views / opinions about what the author is saying – including my disagreement

Often, my comments are in the nature of telling myself :

Hey ! We should try out this idea in our own business ( Head-hunting / Online Recruitment )

Following are my comments re :

Page no = 49

·         Same with our system – when, based on “additions “to resume database, we keep re-computing “weightages” dynamically. We will do this, as soon as we grow our resume data base when we face this, it would be a welcome type of problem.

·         Job search 2) Resume search, without login & actually see the search- results.

Page no = 117

·         Celebrity  endorsements.

·         User Generated content IT has always been so in  jobpoortals, where Recruiters” upload” jobs & candidates upload their resumes.

Page no = 119

·         Quite like a jobpoortals, where no corporate Recmiiter would visit WI thought thousands of resumes & no jobseeker would visit without thousands of job-advts. To healer this vicious we built up a large database of jobs thru RSS feeds from sites but after 8 months we have only 1263 resumes as of today!   

 Page no = 121

·         ( within 7 days of my request ) , today HP lab India ( site on Mobile.com ) has granted ok for us to create a “Taskelt” to deliver job- Alerts On Mobile ( JAM) .this could prove to be our break thought.

Page no = 138

·         To gain traffic / registration, we have kept all of our services FREE, both for jobseekers & Recruiters. What we tow is aiming to do with Tackles. What we will do.   See me marks on p: 135 re job SEARCHES & WE WILL SHOW JOB Advts. Resume Search.

Page no = 139

·         Can we get a Taskelt to “sms this job Alert to a friend “? Phoned & told Rohan to keep mind in He thinks this is a good idea.

 Page no = 142

·         Just type the name in Google Earth? I must try.

Page no = 158

·         A resume too is a “block of text “! Could this software extract “keywords” from resume?  “JOB Advts” & “Resumes” are “texts” that get displayed online! What ads can be made to accompany?

Page no = 159
