Global Voices Delhi Summit: December 2006

GV Summit 2006

Tomorrow I am off to New Delhi to attend the Global Voices Summit 2006. This shall be my very first serious blog meet, though I am not sure if it could be called a blog meet in the first place.

To say that I am very excited would be such an understatement - cant wait to meet other out-of-Mumbai (and some from overseas) desi-bloggers.

At times I find it really strange, blogging was something that I took up as a time-pass hobby but today I take it seriously.

Anyway this will be a very short trip (back on Sunday) not that they need me at work, just that my dearest friend is in Mumbai from Amrika for a very short-while.

So with the way things look right now, don’t think I will be blogging this weekend but shall be back with some noteworthy posts on Monday.

im pleased i’ve finally got my visa to come visit your lovely city ( and country! heh - -im a bangladeshi citizen so it was a tad difficult - globalisation eh? sigh these nation-states! can’t understand how their citizens came to be friends with each other :-)) over the festive period! Mumbai here I come…! I’ve just finished reading Shantaram by Gregory David Roberts and I think it was good timing.. fabulous book. I must try a trip over to this Leopolds place.

Kuch nahi Sakshi, better spend your time visiting kutub minar or jantar mantar. By the sound of it, it seems like lot of secular leftist hot air will be blowing in the summit. Kind of what happened in Mumbai during the world social forum or something like that, organized by the professional Leftist agitators, sometime in 2003 or 2004.

errr well Sakshi,

I do find seculars and leftists more cruel than so called communals.
Anyway, do enjoy, and if you are bored, I heard Gurgaon and Noida are too cool these days. They have some nightclubs better than Mumbai or Pune.
