Desicritics.com (Premier Blogging site)


Desicritics is a place to spend quality time for bloggers from India. Sadly the blog is not tech blogging about Tech about India. However the crows/junta is a tech crowd. Lots of cool gals on site like Aditi, preeti, squirrel. Shantanu datta presents political views while Deepti provides depth to human stories, Aman is a nice editor and we havea few blogging about the inthingie in Bollywood.

The negativeism is that the crowd is NRI. There are also unscrupulous people writing shit in here but they are fully manned by commonsense and temporal. Cheers to fun and frolic.

Desicritics is an online magazine that explores the world from the perspective of Desis, that is, people from South Asia. It provides news and opinion with a global South Asian perspective. The site is over a year old, and is recognized as "a leading source of information in the Indian Blogosphere."[1]
The site was launched on January 26, 2006 by Aaman Lamba, who previously worked with Eric Olsen on Blogcritics. Aaman Lamba and his wife Deepti Lamba co-own the site.
The site features articles from over 500 bloggers from around the world that cover a wide range of topics, from the "macaca" scandal to the assassination of Pakistani tribal chieftain Akbar Bugti. Desicritics covers news in the areas of culture, politics, business, sports, media and technology among others. The site also features fiction from up and coming authors.
Desicritics aims to deal with South Asia in particular, including about what South Asians think about any what topic, as well as non-desis viewpoints on global topics. Articles are syndicated by numerous news aggregator sites and online magazines including Topix, Indianpad and mytoday.com. Desicritics.org also serves as an official news source for Google. Desicritics was a finalist in the Best Asian Blog category of the Web Log Awards 2006.[2]
