Coming soon: Uber Money

Uber will soon launch Uber Money in India. That is, a lending product for its driver partners (and maybe for end users?)

With WhatsApp Pay getting permission to launch to 10 million users – what do you think Paytm and others should be focused on? What’s their moat?

Time to scale AAP? Some notes from product perspective

What happened with AAP in the national elections?

A perfect disaster.

What really happened?

It was a case of premature scaling – when the core idea wasn’t even tested well enough to take it to a larger audience.

With AAP winning Delhi massively (that too against a ma$$ively funded party with a very active social following) – the product (i.e. ideology) is now well tested. Very well tested.

THEY HAVE ATTAINED PRODUCT-MARKET-FIT !
AAP has RETENTION (look at results)

The New Facebook Design…Is Facebook Becoming More User-Centric?

Apart from a 10X better typography and focus on content, the biggest change that I am seeing is updates from humans (i.e. my fraands on facebook), groups (which I am part of) and pages (I follow) – this is very unlike last year, where FB would just push random pages and videos on your feed.
