It’s the end of another eventful week. This week we saw quite a bit of action in the funding space – out of the 8 startups that raised funding, 4 were education startups. Then, there is the story of E-commerce credit card fraud and payment gateways. Amazon plans on getting Indian developers on to its app store, but how? Ridesharing in India, and why B2C will never work. And, the one tip you should not overlook if you want people to trust your website.
Here’s a recap of all this, and more that happened this past week.
