Dear All: Could you please take a few minutes to answer three questions that will help me think through some ideas I have about the site?
I would also appreciate any other suggestions/thoughts you may have. Feel free to use the comments section below or if you prefer – you can email me directly at jaidharma AT gmail.com
Thank you for your time.
***
First question is to do with frequency of posting. I currently have a very large backlog of drafts and posts that I would like to publish. Some of you may also know that I maintain another blog (though not as actively) on venture capital, innovation, start-ups etc. If I were to combine the two blogs, I can easily post 2-3 posts every day. The question is would this be appropriate? overwhelming? welcome?
.
Next, a question on the mix of topics/subjects I cover:
.
And finally, how often you visit the site?
.
Thank you for your constant support and encouragement, as always.

Contents are ok… But topics and subsequent discussion does not end up in forming a view or taking a formal position… Is this type of discussion useful? For example we have discussed MK Gandhi in detail and trashed him as useless defunct heaped upon by media and congressis. The next logical step should be propagate his correct image… What have we done to do that?
Discussions without followed by whole hearted action, do not lead to anywhere… For example, one can devote time or life time or generations criticizing right wing Christians, Muslims, Congress, MK Gandhi. It is not like as if these issues are being criticized for the first time. It is true, to believe that, by creating a blog, one did at least something and it is also true that without whole hearted action, efforts mean nothing. Keep blogging… After some time, it will be mind blogging :-))
Any ways do create a specific topic Kaliyuga (not something like Corruption mentioned in Vedas) it will help you guys to understand why we are where we are and where we will be in future.
Had a good time interacting with the learned and aware community folks of India @ this site… All words, limited action & end result is zero impact… Like RSS (Rashtriya Swyamsewak Sangh).
