Ex-Yahoos start up
Himanshu Nautiyal, Ruban Phukan and Rajesh Warrier – three ex-yahoos from Bangalore, who now call themselves as RHR Networks Pvt. Ltd, seem to be dabbling in quite a number of things :
- PixRat – Bookmark and Tag Photos from the Web (it got techcrunched recently)
- GlogBlog – Bangalore Classifieds
- Bixee – Search Jobs from all Job Sites
- QuestionBank – Job Interview Questions and Answers
It’s great to see these guys doing a Bangalore startup!

Thanks for writing about us, Swaroop!
I look forward to seeing more of our friends doing startups especially since it is so easy/cheap these days – even the little guy can use the India cost advantage!

[...] Let me come to the point. There have been a slew of startups coming up in Bangalore. One has been a photo printing portal started by 2 IITians (http://picsquare.com). Some ex yahoo startups as posted by Swaroop (http://www.swaroopch.info/archives/2006/04/13/ex-yahoos-start-up/). There is a little trend here. Most of these startups are web based startups. All these startups also seem to have taken ideas from somewhere and executing them on the Indian market. This is still good as the success comes with proper execution than with a cool idea, atleast in the webspace. [...]

Its exciting to see people venturing for startups. as some one told people shud start venturing in domains other than webspace which is really challenging ,if one is looking for the latter.
anyways best of luck for all of them.
