Social media is a special place, a virtual jungle to get lost, browse into unknown territories, and learn about cultures, creatures and customs that had been unheard of just a few clicks ago. I remember laughing off the details of Ambergris until I searched that on Netscape in the late 1990s to know the properties and value of this rare commodity. The search continues through the years jettisoning between philosophy, history, science, anthropology, and technology. Social is indeed a great hangout, I keep hearing myself repeating this mantra every time I meet someone inspiring. I have interviewed individuals from all walks of life as I consider myself a generalist rather than an expert on any subject matter. Every time I spoke to someone new, I have felt the minuteness and limit of my understanding of this world and the knowledge that’s spread across us. I met Imran online while speaking to Yehuda Hofri, who lives in Amsterdam, and happens to be an expert on startups and Tech. One thing led to another and voila a conversation blossomed spanning a period of almost three weeks. We shuffled between Technology, history and God knows how many books and I still feel that there’s so much that has been left unsaid. Imran is one of those nomads who were able to find the direction of their lives early on; someone who loves conversing with individuals and teams and created a solution to enable happy and dynamic environments.
