  • #7 Palm WebOS: Ahead of Its Time and a learning for Product Managers

    Palm WebOS was ahead of its time when launched and was a prime competitor to iOS, BlackBerry and Android. There are intersting elements of the OS which are borrowed by the current OS platforms. I am looking this as what we as Product Managers can learn from this, and this epsiode is an attempt to do that.


    There are additional links I would want you to look at to know more about the Palm WebOS.


    WebOS demo:

  • Product Bakar coming back again, stay tuned!

    Welcome back everyone — and welcome to Product Bakar, the place where all we talk about is products and building products — and the journeys of people who just love creating them.

    It’s been a while, I know. When I first started this podcast, we had some amazing conversations about the journeys of passionate product builders. And then… life happened.

    Honestly, the podcast took a backseat because I got pulled into a bunch of other projects and assignments. But here’s what I’ve learned: building something meaningful doesn’t always have to feel like hitting sixes every ball. Sometimes, you just have to stay on the pitch, take the singles, and keep moving towards that mountain of a score.

    And now — I’m back on the pitch. I’m excited to officially kick off Phase Two of Product Bakar.

    What’s driving this restart? It’s simple — I believe there’s still so much to learn, so many insights to uncover, and a few stories and experiences I can share with all of you — the fellow product enthusiasts.

    So, if you’re someone who lives and breathes product — stay tuned. We’ll dive into case studies of fascinating products, have meaningful conversations with builders who’ve done the work, and explore the products that have made real dents in people’s lives.

    I’m genuinely looking forward to this journey — and I hope you are too.

    If this is the space that excites you, make sure to subscribe, and share this with other like-minded folks in your circle.

    Let’s build, let’s learn, and let’s celebrate the Product Bakar together.

    See you in the next one!
