The Game as it Unfolds
No, this is not me talking about politics. This is me, the entrepreneur, writing these lines. And the internet is the game I’m talking about. The internet has undergone a radical shift over the past couple of years, it has transformed from an “internet of hyperlinks and search engines” to an “internet of PEOPLE”.
The focus – PEOPLE. We recently rolled out one of our projects for public consumption, discussed in an introductory post here, that allows broadband users to search and improve their buying decisions. Again, the focus was on people.
My idea of a perfect internet is where people advise people – where you can connect with friends and family and take their advise on things – see what they have done, how they have addressed the same need in a matter of minutes.
The game will change, as we introduce people-to-people internet connectivity in applications and web portals in the coming days. This, for me, is a personal priority as part of my vision – how I see the use of internet evolving in Pakistan. No big plans yet, there is plenty of opportunity within our borders.
Ammar internet still is a place where people share things with people. People-to-People internet connectivity can be seen on facebook and twitter…I say that localizing the content for us is a bigger opportunity to increase this people-to-people sharing…
