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 been [...]



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 [...]

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 [...]

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 [...]
