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

The first time I visited IndiBlogger, I thought that it was simply just another platform to talk about blogging. However while going through some of the topics in the forum, I could realise how each one here has been attached to IndiBlogger that they are able to relate to incidents of the past. And most often I don't seem to understand what other are talking of. The simple reason being that I do not know what has happened in IndiBlogger before I had come here. But I wish to know all those things. Here are two such examples. In one of the topics here I saw Pundit Commentator talk something of people I don't actually know. And here is a part of what she had written.

(1) Gouri's thread on catching his posts on Mohan's blog.

(2) Blog post presumably written by Renie flushing out rampant plagiarism by Sourav Pandey and all the reactions thereafter.

(3) Pramod Lohia's thread regarding the Sourav Pandey case.

While I am aware of the second thing, I have the least idea of what he wishes to say in the first and third points. And another thread here by Mohini Puranik that  tells something related to her leaving IndiBlogger.

Can anyone tell me more about these events? Well, I am also searching the forums for topics related to these discussions.

And another thing, shall we compile the history of IndiBlogger right from the day it was launched, an account of all upgrades, contests, major achievements and all the important discussions in the forum? Do I hear someone saying that they are going to help me in this issue.

Ranjit, why do you insist on changing my gender? You've already been informed by Hemal and myself that I am a "she", not a "he".

and how exactly are we to trust a historian who has not lived through the community action, is brand new to the scene and instead of poring over the raw data (aka forum threads), chooses to get second hand information from a single source?  Sincerely hope if you are serious about this exercise, you do justice to it with no hint of personal colouring of the facts as they went down.
