Blog Mela Announcement
April 15, 2005
Yes, folks, yet another Blog Mela is being hosted at MadMan's Web. This one will be on 21 April. If you missed the last one, catch it at AnarCapLib.
I'm sure you know how it all works, but here you go again:
The Rules
- Posts must either be made by Indians or must focus on India or Indians.
- Please send permalinks to the blog entries only, not just the blog URL. If the permalink is not working, send me the title and date of the blog entry. Whole blogs are not accepted as nominations.
- You can nominate your own posts or someone else's.
- You can submit any type of posts except personal journal entries. By "personal journal entries", we mean the navel-gazing posts of the kind that would be of interest only to your friends and family.
- The entries have to be dated between April 14 and 20.
- Not all entries nominated may be accepted. Editorial discretion will be used.
- New rule: If your site has those annoying pop-up, pop-under, or floating ads, forget about it!
Please post your nominations as comments to this post. Don't post too many links at once or you'll trigger my spam-buster.

Posted by rambha at April 17, 2005 11:32 PMRambha, these have always been the rules of the Blog Mela. Look around a bit before you make asinine comments.

I would like to nominate Satya's post on Libralizing education in India for the blog mela.
