Inblogs.net - Slap the Block for Indians

Inblogs.net

Yasir Memon & Naveed Memon have come yet again to save the blogging community from the douldrums to have launched Inblogs.net which is similar to pkblogs but more suited for the Indian traffic.

On July 17th the Indian Government has started blocking a number of websites specifically Blogspot, Typepad and Geocities. This comes as a sudden shock to the very active blogging community in India of which a few actually generate a significant amount of revenue in this business. If you care to take part in the on-going discussion it can be found on Bloggers Collective

I am also proud to mention that a few Pakistani creations have come into immediate use by the Indians and we are proud to share our resources with our Indian counterparts as a show of support in the hope of making friends across the border. We are more than willing to shed our differences and stand together to protest this ban both in India and Pakistan.

Of interest is the list of websites that is being presently blocked by the Indian Govt copied from the List of Banned Sites

    hinduunity.org was blocked in Pakistan also
    hinduhumanrights.org
    princesskimberley.com
    bloodspot.com

    blogspot.com

Unbelievable. India bills itself as the world’s largest democracy, and then they pull this?

Then again, my country (the USA) isn’t exactly perfect either…

pkblogs came as a lifesaver to many of my friends in India! :)

Great effort. Its good to see us against them (govt.) and I’d like to believe that we are winning censorship.

Indian democracy, here my friends what is known as an oxymoron.

Wait, is that the same country that

* has the caste system
* lets minorities get massacred
* says that you can’t get government aid if you convert to a monotheistic religion…

the list goes on…
