The "blogger list"

Post this topic on X

In Content & Inspiration

The IndiBlogger forum is now a read-only archive. Every public discussion is still here to read, but new topics and replies are closed.

I was going through the news and saw that every channel or newspaper brings out a list of people who have outstanding this year. There is a list of people in every field who people look up to. I felt there must a list of bloggers as well. So, I've started this thread.

Just tell which blogger has influenced you or the blogger which you think should be on this list with your reasons.

Earnings is definitely a point to judge but not the only one. As in general tech bloggers here earn more. You can take any factor to give your suggestion like popularity, impact on bloggers, impact on society etc.

Let's create the list. :-) :D

Samyukta Sharma of http://www.isimplylovemakeup.com/ and Alok Vats of http://www.inewsindia.com/ have been my inspiration this year. Samyukta for all that she manages to do in 24 hours and Alok for his awesome posts on blogging :)

Alok is definitely helping a lots of people with his posts. Smile Samyukta's I had visited now, it's nice to know about her blog. Smile

Every year these lists are made and I find them depressing because no one ever names me on any of them. If the other bloggers are inspiring people, I wonder what I am doing.  Grazing buffaloes? 

Gaurab
from New Delhi |

Someone may suggest your name this year Wink

Ranjith
from hyderabad |

No! You are grazing pigs. Tongue out

As you are desperate to be named, let me name you.

I, Ranjith, hereby name TF for XYZ Awards for reading 89 books in a year, pulling people's legs in IndiTalk and for providing free editing services on IndiTalk. Money mouth

TF Carthick

Why don't you suggest my name, Gaurab? Bring some solace to an old blogger's wearied heart in the spirit of Christmas and New Year.

TF Carthick

Ranjith - Thank you, thank you, kind Sir. May God bless you with hundreds of children to keep your name alive.

TF Carthick

Well - Ajesh - you made me sufficiently curious to go over to your blog and find out what the little red people was all about.

My inspiration has to be Tanishq Sharma (http://www.captiveofthoughts.com) for his emotional and touching stories and social articles! (And also for helping me set up my blog!)

 In her own words : A multitasking, down-to-earth, cheerful woman, with big teeth, who enjoys  flights of imagination(even if they are on the broom), always remembering that there are meals to be cooked, things to be cleaned, vegetables to be bought, whistles to be blown, spitters to be filmed, bills to be paid, jokes to be enjoyed, songs to be sung, and yes, of course, blogs to be typed, and questions answered

None! Laughing

My list of bloggers-Indi chatters....

Ranjith..Annaaa.

CK...Tough cookie to crack with  morals ( U know what am I reffering)

Vijay ...Positive vibes

Nandini.....The detective

NSV- Cool Man

FP aka Small p ( English teacher)

Once in a while there are few special appearence in Indi-talk..

Ragini- Cool lady..Sushmitha- Confused girl... Rio...

Now a days Ajeesh Sir and The fool are also there on Indi talk regularly :P

Why do all these pple inspire me?

We all dont know each other in personal level..But still some where we have formed a connection...We all some how know if we want any help (regarding blogging or just a ear to vent out frustration or even a gibbrishh talk which no one understands) there is someone to help us out. We all pull each others leg in many levels but we dont hurt each other..We gossip publicly too :P ( Spice of life u see)... Any time of a day, we are confident that one of the above mentioned person is availble at the needy hour on inditalk...We all trust each other's inditalk addiction to that extent :P....

Vijay Prabhu

My influence remains one and only Ranjith SaarTongue out

Gaurab
from New Delhi |

@Knitha - Wonderful. I have also been able to connect with many of the names mentioned by you in the forums and it has been a great experience. Have also got help and tried to help whenever I can. Went to Indi-chat few times...it was nice experience there.Smile (Not a "chat" person)

Since you were nominating you missed your name...which I think all of them will nominate. Smile

TF Carthick

Thanks Knitha - what 7 years of blogging could not achieve 7 days of chatting has. Seems like I have been focusing my efforts in the wrong direction.

Would have named many bloggers but have really not read many blogs but Alok Vats( http://www.inewsindia.com/) for his useful blogging and SEO tips and Narsimha Sharma Veturi (http://www.veturisarma.com/) , RIO (http://likemymusings.blogspot.com/) ,Saru Singhal (http://www.sarusinghal.com/)  have a very engaging and distinct style of narration which appeals to me .I hope to discover many more to add to my list ...

This year I traveled with bloggers to different cities, countries and met them at several events which gave me a chance to interact with them face to face. Knowing them personally helped me follow their work more closely and it was definitely influencing in more than one way. I wouldn't want to name just a few. There is a big list with me and as I am exploring new ones, the list is growing.

The bloggers who have influenced me here- or have made me feel welcome on IB.

1. Ranjith. (wasn't that a bit obvious? He is the guru of IB!)

2. Fairy Princess. The marvellous Di! She is the one to have fun with and i had my first IB chat with her. Laughing 

3. The Fool: Oh he inspired me in a lot of ways. Novels, Studies, IIT! and blogging! :)

4. ck: The guy who knows everything about anything  Laughing 

These people have made me feel welcome on IB and i really enjoy their company. We might not know each other in a personal level, but still have a blast :D Thank you for making my stay *till yet* on IB a fantastic stay Laughing

* I may have missed a few names*

TF Carthick

Ah! There I get named - again for chatting. Thanks Shivam.

Aseem Rastogi
from Lucknow |

This was a wonderful year meeting, interacting and getting inspired from various successful bloggers at different events as well as during a trip abroad.

TF Carthick
from Bangalore |

I have not been actively pursuing blogs this year as such as I have shifted my focus from personal blog to niche blog on science fiction and fantasy - I am yet to discover an Indian blogger who writes in this genre.

Personal blogs, I continue to follow people who I was always following - Pankti, Rachna, Umashankar, Indu, Asha, Jayashree, Seeta

C.Suresh continues to remain my friend philosopher and guide - the one blog I relegiously follow.

There are a few other good blogs (some very famous) which I have enjoyed reading but eventually abandoned due to lack of reciprocity. Call it back scratching or whatever but I have found no blog to date to match my favorite novels. So unless I have added incentive of the blogger following me back, I anyday prefer to spend my free time on novels - now with my kindle that allows me to read at night time during commutation as well.

Of course all the Indichat folks are always fun to hang out with - DS, Rio, Ranjith, Cyber, Pankti, Parichita, Shivam, Ajesh, NSV, Vijay, Knitha, Nandini

New person I discovered this year from Indivine - Alok Vats - He has catchy titles that attracts attentions of bloggers and writes in a simple way on basic bread and butter topics of interest to bloggers.

New bloggers I discovered on Facebook - Sid, Sakshi,Rekha and Jairam - Don't always read their blog nor comment every time I read. But they have been creating waves in social media and I have peeked into their blogs more than a few times in the last year.

Thanks TF - what 5 years of blogging could not achieve 7 days of chatting has. Seems like I have been focusing my efforts in the wrong direction. Tongue out

Listing names is difficult... but I thank every one for writing blogs that I have read at one time or the other, though may not always have commented. Every post read has given me one or more reason to go on writing/ blogging.

I know I will keep reading your posts... and will keep writing. :)

I am an old memeber of IB but new to utilising it. Was Busy in my world.

But the time I entered IB again 2014 , I found forum bloggers really inspiring...I mean the people above... all of you...

I admit I hav been silent listner but still you inspired ...that blogging is not just writing .. I was just blogging and posting it during 2009, a scrap book for me to read in future...but I see IB made it more to connect and know where we are wrong, share and get inspired...also in IB, get frustrated if we dt win...and share that frustrationSealed ..feel happy if we won something

reaction on controversy blog / topic.. Rules of IB/blogging ... inspiring themes... So much happens on just a blog... cool...
