5. Agenda

Tree
8. Conviction
A strongly held belief that is
arrived at after considering
personal experiences
Any external inputs that may
have been encountered
9. • I'm Richard Stallman, founder of the Free Software
Movement.
• In 1983 I announced the plan to develop a complete
free operating system called GNU.
• I am using a Lemote Yeelong, a netbook. This is my only
computer, and I use it all the time. I chose it because I
can run it with 100% free software even at the BIOS
level.
• I read and send mail with Emacs (mail is what I do most
of the time).
• Most of the time I do not have an Internet connection.
Once or twice or maybe three times a day I connect
and transfer mail in and out.
• Freedom is my priority. I've campaigned for freedom
since 1983, and I am not going to surrender that
freedom for the sake of a more convenient computer.
12. Social
The term Social refers to a
characteristic of living organisms -
humans in particular
It always refers to the interaction of
organisms with other organisms and
to their collective co-existence
13. I get concerned…
The existence of the internet
and the so called “social
networks” are not that
social…
18. The world is changing
– BRICi happened –
embrace it
19. The Old Way
• Global companies launch global products with
language sensitivities
• Global companies launch language specific
regional products
• Regional companies launch locally (and stay
there)
• Global companies excel at scale/monetization
but tend to fail at being regionally adored
• Regional adoraton scales poorly
20. Why there needs to be a new way
Almost half the 500M internet
users coming online in the
next 5 years are from
emerging markets
