RedBus Continues To Dominate In India, But That’s Not What Makes Them Special As I start my trip in India along with Dave McClure’s “Geeks On A Plane,” I am reading about all of the startups in India that are used to proving that the country is making inroads and is relevant. It’s a story that I’m very familiar with in emerging markets: a group of VCs and entrepreneurs that want to prove that India is worthy of time, effort and, more importantly, investment. One of the companies that I had heard quite a bit about is called RedBus.in, a service that has standardized and centralized India’s bus system. Having been to India before, I kind of laughed at the notion of that being possible, even after having read Sarah Lacy’s fantastic piece about them from two years ago. I visited the RedBus offices, which don’t seem to have changed much since Lacy described them, but I did notice something new. Our entire “tour” packed into RedBus’ conference room, and once we were introduced to the team it didn’t feel like we were in India. All aboard There are thousands of buses.

jQuery: Smooth Scrolling Internal Anchor Links | Sycha Web Design & Development November 13th, 2010Charlie Evans Here’s a neat little jQuery trick to fancy up your internal anchor links, by making them scroll smoothly to their target as opposed to jumping instantly. Internal anchor links are very common place, e.g. “back to top” links, or FAQ pages which list all the questions at the top. Making them visually scroll to their target not only looks a bit fancy, it also gives some visual feedback to the user as to their new position on the page. This is what it looks like in action, click the following link:Scroll to comments This technique is very simple. Set up your link as you normally would, e.g. href=”#comments” (where comments is the id of your target) Add a class=”scroll” attribute to the link element, so it now looks something like this: Finally add the following jQuery code wherever is most appropriate And that’s all there is to it

10 iOS 7 Features Brand Marketers Will Love iOS 7 presents big change for users, developers and marketers. Here are 10 iOS 7 features that brand marketers should embrace in the coming months in order to stay relevant. 1. Aesthetics matter more than ever iOS 7 Is More Than Just A Pretty Face, but let’s be honest with ourselves: the aesthetic changes in this update are drastic, and apps that don’t comply with the new visual standsards will ultimately stick out like a sore thumb. 2. Safari seems to be the native app that received the most attention with this update. 3. Neither bookmarks nor Reading List are new, but this update certainly makes them more accessible. 4. Safari was slow to adopt the search-from-address-bar function, but at long last it’s here. 5. I could care less about Siri’s new voices, but her (or his, if you fancy) newfound ability to search Twitter is great for brands with a presence on Twitter. 6. 7. 8. iBeacon for precise checkins 9. Autoupdate will let developers fix bugs without any action from the user. 10.

is not available Do you cash out or stick to your guns? Twitter co-founder Ev Williams says you should only sell your company if the offer captures the upside, there’s an imminent threat, or you personally want to. “Any of them will suffice,” but Twitter didn’t have any, says Williams. In the Medium post, Williams discusses how in 2008, one of the tech giants was interested in acquiring Twitter. He didn’t reveal who it was, but around that time, Fortune and others reported that Twitter was in talks with Microsoft, Facebook and Google. In an email to Twitter investors, Williams explained his three reasons companies should sell, and why Twitter didn’t have to. The first and most obvious reason to sell is if the financials of the offer capture the upside of your company’s potential. Second, is there an imminent threat to your company? Finally, the companies should sell if the founders really want to. It looks like Williams bet right. Then again, Ev had already sold Blogger to Google and made his nest egg.
