Hello all my Indian friends,
I read these articles about Remix OS from Jide.com, that I share with you. I believe that the Remix Mini hardware connected to a HDMI flat screen, with keyboard, mouse, and internet connection will be helpful to introduce "TNB" the next billion users to the internet via Android operating system.
With MultiTasking available in Remix OS, you can have many programs running at the same time. Just like I am using many internet browser tabs to collect these URLs to share with you.
I also believe that with a Graphical User Interface, those people that can not read, will be able to click on an image and play videos that show todays weather report or talk about farm economy topics. You might have to create the Android application to perform this task. This same GUI could also play MP3 podcast files that were created to share with other illiterate people that are able to listen to local Indian dialect.
The nerdvittles links below, show how to create a PBX with a raspberryPI, that could be called from a mobile telephone or a Voice over IP SIP phone and play messages to inform farmers about weather or market prices for farm produce.
I believe 2016 will have interesting computing changes inside India. You be part of the creative change to help others, use computers to better their lives. I share these ideas, hoping that you comment below on what works for your neighborhood in India. I realize that what seems simple to me living here in Oregon, might be hard to achieve in your neighborhood.

A good article that points out the hardware prices of computing power is coming down to $80 - $30
I believe that this Remix OS on hardware from http://www.Jide.com might be the next thing coming to India.
Look for Andex x86 Android booting from a USB Flash Drive to test out on your x86 PC.

I have thirty plus years with electronics and computers. My present linux distribution that I enjoy is PuppyLinux. Slacko version 6.3.0. Http://slacko.eezy.xyz. Or 64 bit version Slacko from http://puppex.exton.net with updated kernel. This is a live linux version that can be booted up from and used from either a USB flash drive 512 megabyte or larger or a CD R disk. So if I had no computer available, I would start with a USB flash drive with puppylinux installed. Then I could use a cafe computer or a community computer and keep my files secure with me on my usb flash drive. This is low cost way to begin using computers.
What is your opinion, Kumar. What do you envision creating in your district in India to teach people, or students linux? You can read more from my blog site. Http://puppylinux-or-pcbsd.blogspot.com. You are welcome to add comments at the blog site or email me back.
You describe to me the situation and conditions that exist in your district for teaching linux.
I will help you by sharing what I know. Give the usb flash drive a test run and tell me the results. Make a USB flash drive with puppylinux for someone else to use and report back their experience, please.
ps. here is an open source Android x86 custom

http://www.commodore.ca/commodore-products/commodore-64-the-best-selling-computer-in-history/ Here is a Commodore 64 history from 30 years ago. I was looking to compare the past with the future to see/guess what computer will take off next. I see the Remix OS, I look at the cheap computer boards like RaspberryPi that connect to HDMI for a display and use bluetooth keyboards and bluetooth mouse. Maybe have a 3.5 mm jack for playing Audio into headphones or powered speakers. Also have WiFi to connect to internet for playing videos and music. Also use internet connection for Voice over IP (VoIP) voice and video connections to other people.
ReplyDeleteNote this paragraph about software creation from the article:
The early / mid 1980’s is when the notion of freeware and shareware came to fruition. Thousands of programmers were putting millions of hours of labour into programs that they were making available without charge. Because the 64 had such a huge percentage of the market, it was a primary beneficiary of this innovation. Some have argued that the 64 was also the cause of this innovation; millions of high school age C64 programmers with nothing but time and desire created thousands of pieces of software that they had no retail outlet for. Because they had no cash for production costs, giving software away in exchange for getting your name publicized seemed like a pretty good deal to many kids.
So maybe with cheap ARM computers and an Free Open Source Software (FOSS) Operating System like RaspEX or RaspBSD we can bring computers to TNB "The Next Billion" people.
Three good Articles to read.
