I shared a CNN timeline detailing major rail accidents in India. The list shows that these disasters are a persistent issue, tracking significant derailments and collisions across the Indian railway system over several decades.
I visited the London Eye and was later mistaken for a cab driver in a bar. I also reflect on the precision of British Rail timings and the cultural differences in railway delays between England and India.
I share the transcript of Amitabh Bachchan’s "India Poised" speech. It captures the tension between a skeptical, traditional India and a dynamic, emerging nation ready to lead and succeed on the global stage.
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 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 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.
