Deap Ubhi (Founder, burrp.com; EVP, Infomedia18)

"Necessity is the mother of all inventions", they say. Truly so, in case of Webklipper!
The idea was born 3 months ago, when Deap wanted to share a small section of a blog article with Avlesh. The blog article was lengthy and when he revisited the blog, it took him quite some time to figure out the section he was interested in. Moreover, the only way he could have shared that piece was copy-paste in email. The two had a chat and the core idea behind Webklipper was born the same day - "a cool tool which lets you highlight a section of any webpage and gives you a permanent URL to the highlighted page which you can share with your friends".
Thanks Deap!

Venki Nishtala (CTO, Rediff.com)

Venki has been an involved mentor.
Widgetizing the product was originally a Venki's idea so that it becomes easy for content publishers, site-owners and bloggers to integrate the Webklipper service into their respective sites. That is how the Webklipper-Blue-Bar was born. Webklipper is now available as a widget for site-owners.
Thanks Venki!

Nupur Agrawal Singh (AM, Vodafone Essar)

Nupur has been a patient wife, tester and a motivator.
If you "discovered" some undocumented feature on the site and found it useful, you should thank Nupur. If you use the IE browser and Webklipper still works for you, its because of her.
Thanks Nupur!
