Telecommunication industry is Robbing Me.

Some times its sicking, when was the last time you watched TV which was not sponsored by a Telecom Company, there is Zong ’sabe sei sasti call’ then Jazz ‘aur sunao’ then Ufone its all about U but Warid seems to be a bit quite or i don’t remember their slogan somehow but still dont you think its too much. Geo Tv charges 180,000 for 1 min of air time so can you imagine how much these telecommunication companies pay per day for air time on tv / radio and print ads / banner that we see on the Road and in the newspaper. And its all our money.

Twitter is turning into a Message Board.

Twitter asked a Question “What are you doing?” but why when i look at my twitter page then its really difficult to find what other people are doing rather its easy to find what other people are discussing about so i guess its time that twitter should change the question from “what are you doing ?” to “What do you want to talk about ? ” or “Start a thread” (a billion $ idea indeed).

Telecom is one sector that is booming like hell in Pakistan. Though it started few years back with Mobilink being the pioneer and the first to step in but within years we have approximately 4-5 telecom companies feeding the ever hungry need of Pakistani Consumers.

Though i am a big fan of Mobilink but recently Telenor have been working really hard in the sector and one thing that needs to be praised for telenor is that they are investing into ideas and bringing new stuff to town. First it was Telenor Tv which was copied by Mobilink as MobiTv and now Telenor have signed up with Opera Mini to bring a fast and exciting web experience to its consumers.

Riding on the tremendous growth of telecom sector in Pakistan, Telenor Pakistan and Opera Software have partnered to provide users with a uniquely powerful and efficient Internet experience. Starting immediately, Telenor Pakistan customers can surf the Web with the revolutionary Opera Mini browser.

Opera Mini utilizes Opera’s compression technology to pre-process and compress Web pages by up to 90% before sending them to mobile phones, keeping download costs under control. Opera Mini has a loyal fan base of more than 44 million cumulative users. Its ability to download pages at lightning speeds, coupled with fun features such as Opera Zoom, positions it as the world’s most popular mobile Web browser.

The telecom sector in Pakistan has grown exponentially and mobile operators are among the major architects of this phenomenon. Based on Pakistan Telecommunications Authority (PTA) stats for March 2008, the total number of mobile subscribers stands at 82.5 million with a countrywide tele-density of 52.16%. The average growth rate in Q1, 2008 was an attractive 1.88 million new subscribers each month.
