Agenda :
Primer on Blogathon India  .
We are glad to announce that our group is supporting the Delhi leg of Blogathon India.
As some of you may already know, Blogathon India (www.blogathon.in) is a week long, group blogging online event, to be held from the 20th to the 26th of April 2008, being organized by various blogging communities in India.  Ours is the community partnering from the capital. This would be an ongoing endeavour and not just "a one time meet" in a series of Blogathons. The purpose of the event is to raise awareness about social issues amongst bloggers and other internet users (including non bloggers). Bloggers from all around the nation are expected to blog about topics which fall under six categories - infrastructure, politics, media, sport, cinema and gender. And best blogs will also be awarded by a jury of eminent experts. The topics in these categories are:

Infrastructure: Sunday, 20th April 2008
How can we improve the traffic condition in our city?

Politics: Monday, 21st April 2008
How do we change the focus of politics from caste/religion to grassroot issues?

Entertainment: Tuesday, 22nd April 2008
Does Bollywood overshadow regional cinema in India?

Media: Wednesday, 23rd April 2008
Why are Indian news broadcast channels not as mature as their International counterparts?

Gender: Thursday, 24th April 2008
What are the challenges that society faces in accepting the concept of alternate sexuality? How can we address them?

Sport: Friday, 25th April 2008
Are ‘media’ and ‘commercial interests’ in cricket the only reason that are killing other sports in India?

At DBM XXIII, apart from the usual networking and interaction, we will have a discussion on the how, what, when and where of Blogathon to help us maximize our participation in this event. We would also be re-announcing the specific topics for all the categories and would also take feedback on how to conduct further blogathons. We are also expecting non-bloggers there, hence we would be helping them setup blogs and would encourage them to participate by creating their own blogs.

For any media related queries or for directions to the venue, please call Priyanka at 9811511719.
 Look forward to seeing you all.
Please register for your participation so that we know how many ppl to cater to.

Delhi Bloggers Bloc is a 5yr old community of bloggers from Delhi and NCR region in India. This group aims at evolving a meaningful community out of Delhi bloggers - bloggers who have lived in Delhi for some part of their life.

We look forward to building a strong online community that also translates into meaningful offline interaction (the keyword is meaningful). We aspire to interact in constructive ways and evolve both online and offline. Apart from all this we of course meet during "delhi blogger meets" and also focus on areas of interest to the members. And whosoever thinks this is a serious proposition, we have a lot of fun all the way as well :).
