I've been following Bigdata open source projects such as Hadoop for more than 2 years now. Its quit easy to setup Hadoop cluster and implement map reduce job provided you've programming and system admin skills. Its amazing how this technology gained traction in IT world in past year or so. Look at following link on examples on how quantcast processed vast amount of data in few seconds.

Medical startup
During past 6 months I was helping a good friend of mine to jump start his Tele-Medicine startup by discussing various ideas and implementing Android UI framework/TI OMAP HW based dongle to connect various medical devices via USB, Ethernet and plain old RS232 interface. I learned a lot in past 6 months and it was quite interesting to discuss business plan and at the same time work on functional prototype. Will summarize my experience in my next blog.
