The Best of Vintage Nimbupani

It seems my vintage posts were a lot better than what I post now - or so I think. Here is a trip down the memory lane, through what I think are the best posts of Nimbupani circa 2005 and earlier. A lot of what I have written are no longer in the “future” but still make an interesting read.

  • The Nimbupani Web Experience - in which I talk about what the future of the web should be like.
  • Touchpage On a Phone - 2004 and I was talking of a touchpad for mobile phones. Pity there was no iPhone then for reference.
  • Collaborative Documentation - explored, in 2005, the idea of location based collaborative services, which are now already in existence like Hungrygowhere.com
  • Tagging Along - an explanation for how tagging is as natural as breathing for humans.
  • Metadata - Not surprisingly, in 2005 I had (like other zillions of people) predicted the future is online.
  • Watch Us and Learn - my rant against Straitstimes website registration only viewing. Recently, it has made an extensive sections of the website free to use. Finally.
