Matt of WordPress does not like sponsored themes. Google does not like sponsored themes either.
You know what Sponsored Themes for WordPress are. They have a link or two at the bottom or in the sidebar, linking to the sponsor’s website. The sponsors have, of course, paid the theme designer. They get a backlink from every [...]
I have been waiting for this for a while: A complete analysis of what has been going on in Nandigram.
Greatbong has written exactly that - what are the root causes, the role of Trinamool and Maoists, the role of CPI(M), Buddhadeb and the Bengali intelligentsia.
This is not the kind of stuff that you hear [...]
Street harassment and rash driving. Two of Delhi’s most well-known evils. Both out of control. They came together yesterday to kill Pearl Gupta, a 17-year old first-year-student of Aditi Mahavidyalaya.
This is what happened according to Parul, her friend who was walking with her when it happened:
“Barely 20 metres from the college gate, a scooterist [...]
Everything is so communally charged in India these days. Genius observation, isn’t it?
1. All those historical wrongs that have to be righted
2. All those religions conversions that have to be done to add to the flock
3. All that past ruling-class status to be regained

The ‘pseudo secular’ media is keeping totally quiet about Buddhadeb and Nandigram. Not a peep out of them. Some of them, in fact, are reporting that it is a ‘reaction’ to the ‘action’, initiated by violent Maoists and the CPI(M) retaliation was spontaneous, and entirely natural.
Not!
According to this screenshot, taken at 11.05 PM on 14th [...]
Hmm.. website stats programs are never accurate. They are not meant to be. After all, no one is still clear about exactly what a visitor or reader is!
But sometimes you find such variations that it is quite crazy to reconcile them.
On this blog, I use Mybloglog stats to figure out what is going on. I [...]
Seriously, running a site like DanceWithShadows without a proper CMS is a pain. It has been bothering me for a long time. I have been exploring how to integrate the site into a CMS for a while - and that quest still goes on! But occasionally, looking at Magazine -style themes for the WordPress blogging [...]
There, I said it.
The scale may be smaller in the case of Nandigram. But the basic fact is the same. There was violence by a large group against a much smaller group. There were deaths, more on the side of the smaller group. There was looting, there was rape. No one knows the details; Buddhadeb, [...]
Or purchased his own one-way ticket out of the country?
I am really disappointed in this man. And also in Pakistanis. Musharraf squandered his big opportunity to finally turn Pakistan into a modern democratic nation, and Pakistanis squandered away their chance to decide the direction their country should take.
Musharraf, after he got rid of Navaz Sharif [...]
