Hi Everyone,
Many of you have discovered or learned about the Magic Number 7.

I'm sure you've heard of "7 Habits of Highly Effective People."

Hei, there are 7 days in a week

Oh ya, there are "7 Deadly Sins" ... Woooo...!

The soft drink "7Up" became popular after changing its name from "Bib-label Lithiate Lemon-Lime Soda.' Ummm ... Ya. No wonder...

Haiiiii .... yattt...!! "The 7 Samurai" of Akira Kurosawa ... and then adapted as "The Magnificent 7" of John Sturges with the Bang...bang...bang...!

There are "7 Wonders of the World."
Now, wait a minute here! EXCUSE Me...! There are gazillions wonders in this world...
But, we chose to have only 7 Wonders of the World... ?

"The Magical Number Seven, Plus or Minus Two: Some Limits on Our Capacity for Processing Information" by George A Miller is one of the most highly cited paper.
It basically says that our brain has an excellent remembering capacity of 7 items or in 7 chunks.

Hmmm... May be that's why we only have 7 Wonders of the World.

I think you've seen or heard more of the number 7 in many titles, books, magazines, articles, etc.

ENOUGH ABOUT NUMBER 7.....

So, how about the Magic number 7 for Telecentre ?

Let me start with this question:

"What are the 7 Strategies for Building Successful Telecentres ?"

What are the 7 items... the 7 chunks .... of strategies?

There are gazillion things on telecentre items/issues out there and we can make gazillions "dish" from it.

So, anyway I'll be writing here what I think as the 7 Strategies. But, I would welcome your opinion on what you think they are.

What I consider important may not be important to you and vice versa. The way we "chunk" things may also be different. We have many ways of "cooking" telecentre dish.

The 7 Strategies that I'm going to lay down here is based partly on my 6 years telecentre work and the new development that are happening fast around us.

So, here they are according to my perception, as of now, the 7 Strategies for Building Successful Telecentres.

Wala... The 7 Strategies that are connected with each other. Interdependent.

I'll continue this write up on the next blogs...

Your comments at this juncture, however, would be much appreciated.
