Google now aims to educate Indians about power of Internet with its 'Internet Bus'.
The Internet-enabled bus will focus on the four themes - education, information, communication, and
entertainment. It will be loaded with useful and
informative content in English and Tamil. Google said it will showcase
how the Internet can make everyday life simple through services like
search, email, social networking, maps and others. The bus project took off from Chennai yesterday and will reach Vellore tomorrow and will cover numerous cities in Tamil Nadu over the next month and a half.
You can visit the Internet Bus Project website to see when the bus will visit your city; get regular updates. You can also check out photos and videos as Google travels around Tamil Nadu.
Here is the schedule that the Google Internet Bus will follow:
February 03 Feb Chennai 05 Feb Vellore 06 Feb Krishnagiri 07 Feb Salem 11 Feb Erode 12 Feb Tiruppur 14 Feb Coimbatore 18 Feb Dindigul 19 Feb Madurai 23 Feb Tirunelveli 25 Feb Nagercoil 27 Feb Tuticorin

walking everywhere, the smells of urnine, rotting waste by the pavements cookYes could not agree more....lived all over the world, born and raised in India, and our standards are even worse than when I was young. At least we could wear saris, oh back then...now you would have slime of spit, paan, snot and every other output from orifices at the bottom. Taxi drivers lean out and spit, policemen spit, well-dressed spit, garbage is dropped without so much as a thought, as something is opened, peeled etc, outs, where as a walker there is constant danger from cooking oil, hot tea, milk and having to step out onto the road, as pavements are often impossible to navigate because of these now institutions of cook outs, vendors run the risk of death from cars with homicidal drivers. None of this is an exaggeration. I grew up and loved India. Now...I am beginning to wonder, where have I been that is worse...cannot think of one, that considers itself to be the great democracy, cool, hot hip! Ha!!

Hi !!! Its a great concept to inform and educate people about the power of the internet. I welcome it whole heartedly and congratulate you guys for this great endeavour.
