The need

2007-10-19T09:26:00.000+05:30

Need-1
Recently,I and my pal were indulged in an activity of dissecting a slumbering giant called India(in short we were doing a SWOT Analysis Of India)the biggest asset of our paper(and a drawback)was the quantum of information available/presented
Asset- we had varied opinions/comments-cutting across the globe-on India
Drawback-we initially couldn't find enough information(which later on became lots of information).The main source of our information eventually turned out to be the articles published on India in various newspapers across the world.
Trust me,searching articles and matching them to suit your needs in an arduous task.

Need-2
I happened to buy The Hindu Business line-which has a supplement called Life-and read an article on Detroit,which sparked my imagination and aroused in me a curiosity to read more such articles.
Now,since there are at least 1000 newspapers in India and many more across the world,I thought blogging about articles on a separate blog would be a fun task,couple that with many people finding more articles and boy!we'll have information and information and information- all in a single blog.
The format of posts will be like this

A pic on the page.
A brief intro about who found the article and the source of the article
A summary(3-4 lines)
The link to the article
Suitable labels(a must)so that future reference would be easy
