Blog Mela 2005 Issue #2

The year saw a great start for the Bharateeya Blog Mela. The Tsunami special moved slightly away from the tradition with nominating complete blogs instead of just posts. Now that’s a good ‘value addition’. Unfortunately, the response for the second mela hasn’t been good. With just one submission from Amit Varma of the excellent blog India Uncut, the blog mela stands cancelled. Go, check out Amit’s post. The next blogmela at Chaoszone, to be held on 14th, also seems to face the same problem. Hopefully we’ll see more nominations there.


Well I hear you say I could have visited some blogs and nominated a few posts. But that defeats the whole purpose of the mela. Plus, this week has been too cruel to me. So let’s move on.

Yes, we'll move on. Next time, let's pitch in more. And mela hosts who are under the weather / work pressures could always ask for help. It will be given. Cheer up!
I am sorry I wasn't more pro-active ont his, Nilesh. Do you want to host in March again? I promise we will all help this time :)
Thanks Yazad, Shanti. Ofcourse I'd love to host a mela again. And I won't hesitate to take your help. :-)
Good. Next time, of course, we would expect a minimum of 50 posts in your mela -- so hope you're prepared ;-)
hehe =)
