I'm eagerly awaiting the armies of Mechanical-Turked WiFi robo-mops and robo-vacuums. Why hire real people to clean your buildings when you can get some Indian to control twenty cleaning bots at once?

Let me know when one of you hackers starts it up.

How about just start with Taco delivery? http://tacocopter.com/

why state Indian specifically? Just curious.

Any cheap 3rd world labor force would work, I guess.

Not that I support such exploitation. But that's 'outsourcing'.

I'd argue that India is not really a 3rd world country anymore. Besides, this terminology doesn't make much sense now that the soviet union is gone.
