This one was bit tough but I answered nicely. some questions I can remember are
1) Design World Wide Web from scratch
2) A webservice takes 10 secods for processing but 120 secs for data Transfer, how will you speed up the process (I mentioned parallel processing but he asked me to go beyond it) maybe faster internet smthing
3) Gave me Fibonnacci Program to write (did it in 2 mins)
4) Diff in white Box & Black Box Testing
5) What happens when user types in Amazon.com home page URL in address bar.
2nd one was bit tough, But I gave pretty decent answers except the 1st one.... got mail from recruiter 2 days back that they are moving forward with other candidate :) better luck next time ....
