Domains for sale

By debashish • Feb 20th, 2007 • Category: Personal

I had plans to start a Hindi Digg-clone but time constraints have been a barrier. I had registered two domains in anticipation, one is Kadighar.com (Kadighar is Hindi for “Home of links”) and another is a blogmemes.in domain with which you can become part of a Digg-clone network of repute who have Digg like sites [...]



Bhasha Blogs: Indic Blogs in the Indian Blogosphere

By debashish • Oct 17th, 2006 • Category: Blogism, Personal

[This was a piece originally written for Desipundit. Patrix recently announced that his team desires to draw curtain over the link blog. This is indeed sad and I really hope they bounce back from the burnout and are back soon. I reproduce my piece that appeared here.] Desipundit is turning one. Congratulations guys! It has [...]



Null Pointer moves to its own home

By debashish • Apr 7th, 2006 • Category: Personal

I recently moved to my own domain and after migrating the blog to WordPress (read this post to know how I managed to do that) I simply dropped a note here at JRoller to let know my readers who still come here. For the email subscribers I simply changed the feed URL. Today it struck [...]



Blogger block

By debashish • Jan 4th, 2006 • Category: Personal

Charu refers to an article on how to deal with the blogger burnout, a term I came to terms with when Jivha quit blogging. For me it has been more the case of Blogger block rather than burnout. I have never been a zealous blogger anyway but few months back I at least would right [...]

Think before you write

By debashish • Oct 17th, 2005 • Category: Personal

I have been simply amazed by the IIPM episode and the happenings in the Indiblogdom for the past few days. While it cannot be denied that bloggers are supposed to remain united at times of distress such as this, especially when the episode took a bad turn and one of the vociferous blogger has to [...]

Hindi blogs showcased on DesiPundit

By debashish • Jul 27th, 2005 • Category: Personal

Patrix, who wanted the group blog DesiPundit to have some desi flavor true to its name, was kind enough to invite me to be a co-blogger. I was keen on Anup doing it as he reads more Hindi blogs than I do and manages Chittha Charcha a monthly round up on the major happenings in [...]



Copy I will

By debashish • Jul 19th, 2005 • Category: Personal

Almost a year back, I had reached this site of one Dheeraj Rathi from the referrer logs to my home page at geocities. Now, my homepage is not a work of art, yet it is one of my original works. So it was natural to get startled by Dheeraj''s site, as it was a copy [...]
