For some reason I read that as 500 bucks. Is there much difference between 1 bit and 1 INR?
Whats the conversion? (I'm not familiar with bits)

We could do it on other platforms next time ..

Do you share these type of coupons often?
I haven't really redeemed any coupon yet , i can use this but i was thinking if it's like only once a person can redeem a coupon than i'd  rather wait for any better opportunity in future :D :D ;)

Whats the conversion? (I'm not familiar with bits)

1 bit is far bigger than 1 INR at currnt market rate, where 1 btc = 15000+ INR

1 bit = 1 uBTC = 10^(-6) BTC

Therefore, 500 bits is around 8 INR.

No. If someone have you in the circle, they wont be able to join. You need to have them in your circle. That means, the permission needs to come from your end as you are the Hangout host.

Um yes you can only use one coupon. As 100 INR is the min coupon value we have given out, sure you can wait for a better one. Probably UNO100 will be valid for many more months. Upto our marketing team to decide.

Lot of discussion ! Then why is it blank ?

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uPePTHr8y9g

I only experienced lots of noise and then you, Benson and another lady tried to say something. The last word I heard that you were saying discussion will be tomorrow and then it was closed !

I think, Skype is a better option, but AFAIK at least one person needs a premium account to hold a group VC.

Yup, it was premature of me to think that this was not working out so I disconnected the youtube buffer, but the hangout continued..

Yes, Rocket, like I said, First 20 minutes or so, technical problems, then Sidharth suggested that we continue, asked everyone to turn off mics and it went okay after that.

Also, since there is a limit for only 10 people, only 5 of them were newcomers, and 4 of them were involved.

Don't worry, we'll sort it out, maybe skype next time, but for tomorrow, we are trying g+ again. Maybe it works out..

How to post question in google hangout.

You can try posting on the youtube page for now. Since it was only skang, shikha and myself, we should be good to answer questions here as well.

I think we will have better solutions by the next hangout. That should address questions of everyone.

Approx 2-3 hrs extends on a can. Sometimes, it is the edge that is needed to solve a problem.

Not giving excuses, it MUST GO, but its around for now and it makes work :p

Redbull = Slow Death (http://www.rense.com/general88/bull.htm)

Quote
It is a drink that should be prohibited in the entire world as when it is mixed with alcohol it creates a TIME BOMB for the human body, mainly between innocent adolescents and adults with little experience.

Be careful...
