I highlight the emergence of localized Indian portals like Yahoo! India, CNet, and ZDNet. These sites, featuring dedicated sections for finance and news, represent a significant milestone for India’s growing presence on the global internet.
I curated a list of localized Indian websites featuring regional versions of FortuneCity, Britannica, and The Weather Channel. These portals reflect the growth of country-specific web services and information resources targeting Indian users in the early 2000s.
I use the 'What's new' sections on 123india and Yahoo's India directory to discover the latest Indian websites. These curated lists are effective tools for keeping track of new additions to the regional web.
I’m noting the launch of Google News India, a new localized edition for regional news aggregation. This update, discovered via Kiruba Shankar, marks a significant step in the expansion of Google’s customized news services for Indian users.
I compiled a list of early Indian dating sites like Bachelors India, Yahoo India dating, and Bharatplanet to help someone find local connections. This collection captures the landscape of digital matchmaking in India circa 2001.
I finally found a dedicated TV guide for Yahoo India after a long wait. While I'm excited for the launch, early feedback suggests it is primarily a collection of links compared to specialized alternatives like Zipazap.
