A presentation after two weeks in India with Insead business school.
"The overstretched 19th century elephant lumbers toward anarchy, while the 21st century mind ebraces chaotic democracy. Yes 1 billion strong are rising to the mainstream, the brain drain reversed course, as the home country gains the valley's cream, of the top crop.
But the taxis are stuck in traffic, and the governments are slow to change. And the youth consumers of nokia's futures are breathing pollution and more of the same.
India Shining, as we walk to the beat, of people surving, with what they sell on the street.
India Shiining, yes the weather is sweet. People are climbing, while the West is asleep."

Santiago Etchebehere
I'm 27, from Argentina, I've studied at the Engineering College of "Universidad de Buenos Aires" (Argentina) where I've also been a teacher assistant, I'm currently working on my grade thesis (Testing Automation based on Open Source Tools) to get my degree as IT Engineer. I really enjoy my life at home, hanging out with my friends, and I like learning languages and different cultures, which is not difficult in a city like Buenos Aires, where I live. I've worked for different software development companies in Buenos Aires, as a software engineer, developing with a variety of languages and tools (mostly Java and C++). Currently, I'm working for Globant (www.globant.com), an Argentinian software company since Jan 2006, and providing services to Google since Aug 2006 in the CRM QA project where I've worked with the team (Googlers and Globant employees) to create an automation framework based on Selenium and other tools for testing web applications. The framework grew and it's now being used by some other projects at Google too.
