With no formal education in computers, Khan has learnt everything about computers from books and from his round the clock available teacher ‘Google gurudev’. It all began in 2005 when his younger brother Idrees, a B.tech in computer science, left his books at home before moving for job in Gurgaon. “In my free time, I began studying his books and designed a website after learning about HTML,” Khan recalled.
Imran said though he has created more than 100 websites until now, he manages only two –www.gktalks.com andwww.gyanmajari.com. Till now he has developed about 50 apps related to education and distributed them for free. One of the apps General Science in Hindi for class 9th has been downloaded over 5,000,00 times.
