You may have noticed that there’s hardly been any business\/ economics blogging going on here for most of the year. Most of you probably didn’t care, but in case you did, please rest assured that I haven’t given up. It’s just that right now I’m preoccupied with an idea that is not fully formed.<\/p>\n

The problem is that this idea is multiple intersecting ideas. And while I have a vague<\/em> idea of how they link up, I can’t put it into words yet. And the the things linking up include:<\/p>\n

    \n
  1. Nandigram, Singur, and eminent domain in general (especially Ila Patnaik’s more-than-one-year-old oped on it)<\/li>\n
  2. IIMB’s internal instant messenger<\/li>\n
  3. The lack of public spaces for performing artists in Bangalore<\/li>\n
  4. Why people in slums have TVs but not flush toilets (this was a Nitin Pai post a while back)<\/li>\n
  5. Bars in Singapore<\/li>\n
  6. Why DRL got funding from ICICI Ventures while Ranbaxy did a public issue<\/li>\n
  7. The Bangalore Central mall<\/li>\n
  8. Reservations<\/li>\n
  9. The Flickr API<\/li>\n
  10. Open source software<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    All these are very diverse but rest assured that they link up. The problem, as I said, is in explaining clearly how<\/em> they link up. Once I discovered two weeks ago that the Flickr API was also connected to all this, separating and sorting the linkages has become easier. It’s still a jumbled mess, but I’m closer to banging it into some sort of framework than before.<\/p>\n

    Until that happens, arbitfundablogging will continue as usual.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
