Kunal Jham develops application for iPhone


Kunal Jham, one of the promising Bhagnari youngsters has developed an application for iPhone and he and his family are very excited that it has been accepted by iPhone. Its a matter of great pride for the community that its youngsters are coming to the forefront of IT technology. Are we about to witness a Bhagnari Sabeer Bhatia, who created Hotmail.

The application is named DoGood. For more details and to download it on iPhones visit http://mobil33t.com/dogood/

We asked Kunal about the background and the inspiration for developing this application. His response was "Our story so far has been a pretty interesting one. It began with an experimental “Mobile Development for iPhone and Android” course at the University of Michigan. The class was a hit, producing many great apps and quickly acclimatising many students to Objective C. From this experience, we decided to try our hand at entrepreneurship. We formed an LLC and got invited into the TechArb, a business incubator for University of Michigan students.

That was only three weeks ago. And now we’re at Apple’s World Wide Developers’ Conference (WWDC) to launch our app and make it grow.

So, why did we choose DoGood? Well, while popular, the app store is quite saturated. Thus, we wanted to make something unique. An iPhone application that screams altruism; one that we hope stands out for its simplicity and ability to positively impact society."


A "DoGood" is a simple act of kindness - one that requires minimal amount of time for an individual who owns iPhone and is intended to become part of a bigger movement. Your decision to do something good today, reaches millions of iPhone users.

Here are some examples of DoGoods:

a) Show gratitude today - "Thank someone that works hard to make your day possible."
b) Save paper today - "Use your computer instead of paper. Together, we'll save a lot of trees."
c) Be positive today - "Think positive, speak positive. Show someone the brighter side of life!"


Let's DoGood together and encourage Kunal to bring more glory to Bhagnaris.
