Katyayana was a disciple of Gautama Buddha. He is also known as Kaccana or Kaccayana, Mahakatyayana, Mahakaccana and in Japanese as Kasennen. Katyayana is one of the “Ten Disciples of the Buddha”. Mahakashyapa, Ananda, Shariputra, Subhuti, Purna, Mahamaudgalyayana, Katyayana, Aniruddha, Upali and Rahula. He was foremost in explaining Dharma. He was born in a brahmin family at Ujjayini (Ujjain) and received a classical Brahminical education studying the Vedas. Katyayana was a Sanskrit grammarian, mathematician and Vedic priest who lived in ancient India, around the time of the Greco-Bactrian Kingdom. He is known for two works:- The Varttika, an elaboration on Panini’s grammar. Along with the Maha-bhasya of Patanjali, this text became a core part of the vyakarana (grammar) canon. This was one of the six Vedangas, and constituted compulsory education for Brahman students in the following twelve centuries.- He also composed one of the later Sulba Sutras, a series of nine texts on the geometry of altar constructions, dealing with rectangles, right-sided triangles, rhombuses, etc. Katyayana certainly have been a man of very considerable learning but probably not interested in mathematics for its own sake, merely interested in using it for religious purposes.He wrote the Sulbasutra to provide rules for religious rites and to improve and expand on the rules which had been given by his predecessors. Katyayana would have been a priest instructing the people in the ways of conducting the religious rites he describes. Authorship: Nettipakarana, a work of grammar, and Petakopadesa, a treatise on exegetical methodology, sulvasutras dealt with geometry.

I think business model is important.

Posted by Braj Chaturvedi on April 28, 2009

Twitter is the magic word. I have seen all social media enthusiasts talking about Twitter. I asked one of my friends what is Twitter’s business model. He had no answer; probably it does not have any business model.

I think business model is important.

A closure review of the product made me feel that while a business model is important, Twitter is a company that can afford to take its time in finding the one and even if it fails to discover one it will survive. It will survive because other businesses are building on top of the micro-messaging service and using it for their own services.

Some businesses have discovered that Twitter is an effective way of communicating with consumers. Dell made US$ 1 million using Twitter. People who sign up to follow Dell on Twitter receive messages when discounted products are available the company’s Home Outlet Store. They can click over to purchase the product or forward the information to others. When Dell can make money why not others? The corporate success story can motivate Twitter to creating corporate accounts.

I realize Twitter has created such a valuable platform which is beyond the debate of business model.
