The nth Bharateeya Blog Mela
December 27, 2004 04:23 AM
Update(21:00): Due to cascading reasons, the nth Blog Mela has been postponed to the (n+1)th Blog Mela. I mean Madhu is hosting the current Blogmela and I'll host the next one on 7th January.
Oops, I almost forgot about the mela. And I too was about to slip on a kela. Anyway, the next Bharateeya Blog Mela will be held here on the 1st of January, 2005. Yes, the first day of the brand new year! For your convenience, the rules are posted below -
Posts must either be made by Indians or must focus on India or Indians.
Send in permalinks to the individual blog entries only, not just the URL. If the permalink is not working, send me the title and date of the blog entry.
You can nominate your own posts or someone else's
You can submit any type of posts except personal journal entries.
Drop it as a comment to this post.
The entries have to be dated between December 20-31. Yes! almost two weeks worth of posts, to fill up the gap. Let's have a big bash!
Please send your nominations to me latest by January 1, 12 pm IST.
If you are new to the mela, here's a brief, albeit dated, FAQ. The last Blogmela was held on AnarCapLib and the one before that on नुक्ता चीनी.

I'm sorry, Nilesh, but thanks to Yazad pushing his Mela back by one week, my Christmas edition too has been postponed. So I'm hosting the next one. :)

Thanks Nilesh. I noticed that. But MadMan's Mela timeframe is only one week... and not from 20th Dec onwards. So these posts of mine don't qualify! ;-)

I will consider them.
(Why didn't you send them to Yazad?)
