“Bangalored”
All of a sudden, I’m finding more and more people using the term ‘Bangalored’ to mean something that has been outsourced. Statements like “They’re Bangaloring it to Asia” and “More IT jobs are getting Bangalored to China than to India now”. Dunno who coined the term but it’s picking up fast.
Turns out (and I googled for it after writing the above paragraph), this term has been in use for quite some time. But the last 2-3 days, it’s been popping up left, right and centre. Another blogemenon (this one is supposed to mean a phenomenon related to blogging I believe)?
“Bangalored” — I find the term amusing.
