The Indian Info-Rickshaws

Posted by CowboyNeal on from the internet-to-go dept.

DoomDoom writes "CNN is running a story on how the Indian government is delivering health and educational services on a WiFi equipped rickshaw to the poorest of its citizens. It's a poetical union of a typical third world product with high-tech! Do you still think computing is unnecssary for the poorest of the poor?"

    Listen, Indians are great people, so are the Chinese and the Europeans, but really, who gives 2 shits about Indians, they take our jobs and they smell like curry. In America we have plenty of poor people to worry about, poor dotheads in India are inconsequential. Don't get me wrong, we need to consider foreign languages, culture, etc etc, but c'mon, this nonstop talk about poor dotheads and technology is ridiculous.
