The First Post

Hi,

I’m Adnan, and have been reviewing and editing the Blue Screen of Death over the past 2 years. My background: I was infected with the entrepreneurial virus in the final semester of college when I met Jawwad (yes, the evil/infamous author of this book) who had come to teach us entrepreneurship.

Over the past two years, I’ve worked on two ventures. An online marketplace for Pakistan (http://www.lootmaar.com/) and an e-mail response management system (iCERMS). The business plans for both projects had been selected as the top 25 in a country wide competition organized by the Pakistan Software Export Board (http://www.pseb.org.pk/). Until last week I was working with a Fortune 100 technology company, specializing in data-center storage and business continuity solutions. I’ll be joining graduate school this fall to study technology management and entrepreneurship in the US, until then, I’ve decided to take (another) plunge into startup land.

I’ll be posting here on subjects that are covered in the Blue Screen. If you’re intrigued by ventures and startups, do jump in and join the discussion.

Regards,
Adnan.
