  1. Really enjoyed reading the article. I have only been to Sylhet a handful of times, but whatever I managed to see of the city, I loved.

  2. I am leaving the comment here because this is the most recent posting. I have some of your ideas for developing IT in Bangladesh.

    You may want to read a report on "How to develop IT in Bangladesh" You can find the report here. I think many of your ideas are reflected here.

  3. Hi Hammad,

    Thank you very much!

    Hi Shahzaman,

    Thank you very much for pointing out
    the report. I will need some time to
    read it, but unfortunately I am on travel and am not always connected,
    so I will wait until I am back in
    Dhaka.

    Last time I was in Sylhet (August 2007), I was very frustrated with accessibility to information.

    Hence I created www.zindabazar.mobi, as an attempt to build a fun and easy to use platform where people can access information of organisations via mobile phones. The site also allows users to post things that they want to sell..
