In the late 90′s when Google was only launching and Yahoo still at its helm, Anand‘s dad first introduced him to the computer, mostly playing games like Dave and Wolf like every other kid of his age. T’was Cool!

In the beginning of the 2000′s, I was introduced to a highly addictive narcotic substance called the Internet which quickly became my second home. Anand was furiously designing away uselessly entertaining websites at Geocities.com mainly for fun and coolness factors that came with it while all other 13 year olds were busy with more realistic stuff like Cricket or WWF.

Then on, in December ’05. Anand’s new home was up called TheAnand.com. The site mainly contained information on my misadventures and had my own design malfunctions.

Exactly a weeks later in 2006, I found a new found passion for blogging and its advantages over traditional web page creation. Alongside, I was also creating more niche sites and expanding my network and try to attain my lifes’ goals being the Money, Mercedes and the Mansion by the time I am 27. :)

In Feb 2008, I attended the BarCampKerala2 in Cochin and have been the part of TEN India since then. We organize unconferences in Kerala like BlogCampKerala and BarCampKerala. A few months later, I founded Ayruz Web Holdings in Cochin, which was mainly to consolidate my web properties under a single name. The firm now has about 8 employees and offers services from digital marketing, movie promotions and web promotions services. We also have a few products such as MetroGeometry, WordZo and others in the works. I currently manage the operations at the firm.

Offline, I am Anand Subramanian, a 22 year old entrepreneur who dreams of completing his college someday, a successful internet marketer and a travel lover.

BTW, I was not exactly featured in the Wired and this is a mock up :) Why on earth would Bill Gates donate to the open source foundation?!!?
