“I have a smartphone and can’t stay without it. I check all my mails and keep connected to people with my phone. I use Google Reader, Gmail, Google maps on my phone to stay connected even on the go. I feel that each entrepreneur should take out time to read and invest their time in learning, for which I feel that Google Reader is a really good option. Most of my work is done through Excel and PowerPoint, so I don’t need any other software,” says Phanindra.

Phanindra Sama is the Co-Founder and CEO of redBus.in, an online bus ticketing service provider. The company had raised $6.5 million in its series C round of funding from Helion Ventures, Seedfund, and Investus Capital Partners in 2011.
