The South Asian Blogosphere
The South Asian in me can't help but read news feeds and blogs ranging from the South Asian Journalists Association (SAJA) to DJ Rekha. I thought I would share with you a cool online panel discussion that SAJA organized earlier today. While the time has already past, it would still be worthwhile to find out how it went and further explore this exploding entity known as the South Asian Blogsphere:
The South Asian Blogosphere and How it is Changing the Media
As part of the second-anniversary celebrations of SAJAforum.org, SAJA's newsy blog, we are hosting an online panel discussion among some of the best-known names in the South Asian blogosphere. They will discuss the state of the blogosphere (South Asian and otherwise) and how it is affecting how news and information about South Asia and the diaspora is gathered and shared.
