Anant’s blog: Why the Digital Media Awards

From the time we first saw the internet in India, I’ve been obsessive about it. I watched the Rediff.com launch closely, I got excited about Sharekhan.com, about Indya.com, about the launches of Hungama.com and others of the ilk.I got myself a Yahoo.com id, [email protected], an id I use till today. I started a blog when blogging was the rage, on, naturally, Blogspot.

In whatever year it was, he got a rank of three thousand something, which meant he just failed to make the cut.
