		<description><![CDATA[I have this mostly untested BHAG - big, hairy, audacious goal in business lingo. The BHAG is to ideate, build and launch beta products in order to early exit (by sale or spin off).Key assumptions I am making are:

   1. In today's day and age, building simple "need fulfilling" products and getting a read on their performance in the market within 6-9 months is not impossible.
   2. Further, with the right team, this can be done for multiple product ideas one after the other.
   3. If you are detail oriented and a fast learner, you do not need 10 years experience in a particular domain before building a product for it.

From an initial pool of a dozen ideas, I have chosen 3 concepts to start with based on their business case. These products concepts are in the ecommerce, online payments and mobile VAS spaces; 1 is for the Indian market and 2 for global customers [...] ]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Recently, an article by Sanjay Goel (of MustSeeIndia, an Indian travel site) on Pluggd.in about Payment Processors in India sparked my interest. The  discussion highlighted 2 prominent points for me:

- lack of awareness about existing Indian + global payment options amongst Indian businesses (entrepreneurs, technologists, startups). Some users even suggested that PayPal is illegal in India.

- few merchants discussed real features (that they should demand more of) offered by their payment provider; most (and rightfully so in the Indian context) were concerned with pricing and ease of integration.

I thought it would be great to introduce the key players in the online payments ecosystem (also called e-payments or web payments) so everyone understands the differences between a payment gateway, a payment processor and a 3rd party payment platform........]]></description>
