The Begining

Starting a blog profiling technology startups in India was a plan on my mind from a long time. I had canceled this plans because there were already a bunch of bloggers at this and some of them were and are still doing a good job. Its one of my passions to read and keep up-to-date with the Tech Scene all over the world, let alone just India.

I currently read StartupSquad, StartupDuniya, Watblog and Startups.in. Earlier I also used to read Amit Ranjan's blog. I've been following these blogs for quite a while (around 6 months now).

The best among the breed right now is StartupDuniya. These folks are the most committed to delivering news and statistics of the latest that might be happening in India.

Even better than that was StartupSquad. However, its more focused on Startups in general rather than just Indian ones. Also, its not regularly updated as well. Apart from that, the content out there was fantastic. I always made it a point to check its latest feeds every morning.

WATBlog is a joke. They are a bunch of fools who have no idea of anything. Not Web, not technology nor advertising. The WATShow feature is absolutely loathsome. This one is definitely worst of the breed.

Startupduniya is the only one which is regularly updated, cares about statistics and also brings in interesting folks for an interview once in a while. Also the thing I like about them is the focus is mostly on the Indian technology scene.

If there are other blogs out there let me know. I would like to follow them as well.

This blog is another attempt to profile, showcase and statistically (as far as possible) analyze the Indian startup scene. To start with I will commit myself to profile one startup every week. I know one a week is too slow. There are probably 100 launching every week out there! However, I don't want to over commit and fail at it. Moreover, I've never been a avid writer nor do I consider myself really good at English. I can speak very well but can't put down those thoughts on paper. So its all going to be trial and error. I'm sure I will get better with time but till then the readers will have to bear with me and my English.

Regarding the name of the blog, I've chosen 'TechEgg' for the lack of a better name and for the lack of all the better names being already taken on Blogspot. If this blog ever gets big I will shift it off to a hosted solution and change its name for a better one.

My philosophy behing TechEgg is this. New life springs up from an egg to a living being. Just like that I would like to profile Tech Starups from their birth to their success. Sorry, I couldn't get a better idea. If you have one let me know.
