add a warning note: IT is like a virus and screwss up the cities values, culture, balance wrt other proffesions, heritage, sense of belonging, brings in loneliness etc..to those cities in addition to choking the non extistant infrastructure further and faster. So it is nothing to be proud of!

All these things will not give your daily bread and butter but IT will definitely give

yes, your warning is quite timely.. in any business sudden boom is not good .. slow and steady growth is long standing .. the total culture of youngsters has changed for worst .. just because they get handsome salaries, they respect nobody .. buying power has goneup .. house rents have skyrocketed because of IT boom .. building owners may be happy .. but cetainly not middle class people .. even some tenants who have been living for decades have been asked to vacate just because an IT guy is ready to throw some extra thousands .. children has no respect for their parents .. old age homes are increasing .. father is being invited by son for his marriage .. the story goes like this .. where this IT boom is going to take India is a big question mark ..
