"Regional Blogging" - Good and Bad

I can see a lot of emerging blogs from different regional languages Hindi, Tamil, Telugu, Kannada, Bengali, Marathi...etc., in India, seems to be a good growth for the blogging community and the importance of the regional Language. I'm also very happy to see a number of people who browse regional blogs have been increased a lot.

Some of the regionally popular blogging sites like iLand, also introduced to blog in 8 Indian languages.(Ref. The Hindu Business Line). It is very nice to see such a good opportunity grow your language as well as B-Literature. Many poets are emerging, the information is being spread to all over the Internet and it also unites the people.

What is possible bad thing about regional blogging is bound to IT companies. IT administrators can see it as threat because increasing number of regional blogs gives a strong message to control and manage these blogs too. They may also need to differentiate between good content and bad content in each language, and control it. This is not only bound to Blogs, This is also applicable to regional language web-sites, forums..etc.,

Why am i talking about regional blogging because in India there are thousands of IT companies in each city and close to 75,000 people working in Infosys alone in India.

IT administrators may need to start thinking of managing regional blogging, if not now at least they will look after near future for sure.

If you have more points I welcome you to put your comment on Regional Blogging.

E-Waste?

Bloggers Unite - Blog Action Day

I'm very proud to participate in Blog Action day. I always had thoughts in my mind about environment in the blog. Thanks to http://www.blogactionday.org for providing me this great opportunity.

OK. Let us talk about E-Waste. Being an Indian, I'll talk about What is it all about? and what is the status of it in India?

Obviously my first reference about this in Wiki,
"Electronic waste includes computers, entertainment electronics, mobile phones and other items that have been discarded by their original users. "
Due to lack of time.. I just introduce you guys a web-site http://toxicslink.org/ which has so many articles about the environment... I request all of my readers to read and understand and think ourselves to take necessary steps. If i get time I'll post more about E-Wastes and Environment based articles more.
