One of the Indian Driver based in Varanasi understand the importance of Social Media, its an old story but worth to know how a Taxi Driver use a social media to kick recession. The short story will definitely help you to understand the power of Social media specially for those who still feel Social Media is for time pass.
The story takes place at the North of India in the year 2008, where Devesh Mishra, a Taxi driver, is facing a problem due to the slow down in Indian Travel Industry. As a result the competition has increased among the taxi drivers and it has become difficult to get a good business.
What would you do when you are facing such problems in your business? Well, Devesh Mishra shares his problem with one of his customer from Singapore. He expresses how his business has been affected. Very interestingly, his Singaporean friend suggests him to open a YouTube Video. Devesh Mishra than contemplates over the idea, he knows about the internet but not YoutTube. Then one day one of his friend from Switzerland helps him to set up a video, and there he goes in front of a camera informing about his business to the world.
Soon after the release of the video, he starts receiving humble amount of customers. His business starts to flourish and now he gives his dedicated time surfing the internet and reading mails from his customer.
Now whats your reaction on this story,you may say well this is a pretty good story. But I would like you to clearly understand the moral of the story which I find is the core of the story. First of all, Social Media is not a fancy word and is not something that is related to a platform or a technology. Social Media is a cultural change that we are witnessing due to the changing technology. But the core values of Social Media is still the same.
Talk with your customer- as Devesh did “I know a little bit of English as I am intermediate (10+2) educated. However, in the video, I was helped by my friend as he told me what exactly to speak in front of the camera.”
Take your initial step to next level- as Devesh took“I created my email id on Yahoo and now I religiously surf the internet at least twice a week. I get hundreds of emails every week. Most of the mails are from foreign travellers looking for my services. I also visit Yahoo and Google to be always updated about latest happenings”
Educating Others-as Devesh Educating his family “I have four children and I am educating them how to use internet. I have also been trying to promote the idea of putting up similar videos on YouTube to other small businessmen in Varanasi. But they seem to be ignorant about the power of internet”

Buzz allow user to view the summary of your Buzz posts. One can look the complete summary at www.google.com/dashboard like how many people you are following, who all are your follower, information on recent post etc.
Use an @reply to send a post directly to someone’s inbox. If you want to make sure one of your friends sees a certain Buzz post, you can direct it to their inbox with an @reply. Type the “@” symbol followed by the first few letters of their name, and select their email address from the list. Only you’ll see their Gmail address — other people will just see their name.
Try keyboard shortcuts to fly through buzz. Turn on keyboard shortcuts from Settings, and use “j” or “n” to scroll down the buzz tab, “k” or “p” to go back up, “r” to comment (same shortcut as reply in Gmail), and “shift + l” to like.

To keep track of payments that have been reversed is painful as well. Paypal tried answering the question as why it has suddenly stopped certain payments for India. Most of the questions have been answered by Anuj Nayar in The Paypal Blog.
1. Why did you suspend local bank transfers and personal payments to and from India?
We temporarily suspended these services to respond to enquiries from the Indian regulators, specifically questions on whether personal payments constituteremittancesinto India.
We’re working with the regulators and our bank processing partners in India to get this resolved as quickly as we can. We realize that this is causing considerable inconvenience to our customers and I want to reassure you that this is a top priority for the leadership at PayPal
2. When will personal payments be turned back on?
The regulators recently let PayPal know about revised licensing rules that we are now actively engaged in securing. Personal payments to and from India will be suspended for at least a few months until we fully resolve the questions from the Indian regulators.
3. When will local bank withdrawals be available?
Customers should be able to withdraw their funds to a local bank within the next few days. In the meantime, we’re going to restore the money into the PayPal accounts of any customers in India who have initiated a recent withdrawal, so they know that the money is safe in their accounts. Customers will also be reimbursed for any withdrawal fee charges.
4.The PayPal reversal has left me with a negative balance. What shall I do?
If you bought something or transferred money out of your PayPal account to your bank account before we reversed the payment then you may be left with a negative balance.
If this was a payment for a purchase of goods or services, you should contact the sender and have him or her resend the payment as follows:
If this was a personal payment, then the sender will need to find another payment method until we restore the service. We’re sorry about this.
If you can’t recover the funds from the sender, you can bring your PayPal balance current by logging in to the PayPal account and clicking the “Resolve Negative Balance” link on the Account Overview page.
5. My payment was reversed but it was not a personal payment. What happened?
Only personal payments should have been reversed. Customers who believe that their payments were reversed in error should request that the payment be sent again by following the steps above (click the Send Money tab and select “purchase.”)
