Should BLOGS be regulated?

Hi friends yesterday i saw a program " We the People" on NDTV 24X7 at 8 p.m. and topic of the discussion was as the subject of this post "Should BLOGS be regulated?". Barkha Dutt was anchoring and many bloggers were their, famous one and all were discussing about their blogs and about content of their blogs. The Brave new world of blogs and i found this program really great so i thought why not should i share with you my friends. So here are some excerpts from my memories at best.
Why do people blog actually this answer can be given as
Is it for fame?
Is it for expressing yourself?
You want to be noticed among your colleagues you know status symbol.
There are 40,000 active bloggers in India and around 400,000 have got their blogs.
Blogs topics differ from interest to interest like their are
- gossiping blogs.
- study purpose.
- money purpose.
- time pass.
- liberation of their thoughts.
There are many candid bloggers who genrally write what they thought and they really dont care about whosoever is reading the blog neither about their parents nor about frineds,colleagues. They just want to be the different in this world.
There was one bloggers name JHUMMER BOSE and her blog was considered too candid, her blog name as
- whatgoesofmyfather?(mere baap ka kya jaata hai?)
- emancipationofeve
and one more that i forgot but she was really bold in that program.
some ppl also has got a name for her Foxy Tanya. She discussed that some nastiest comments come from anonymous and good comments alwas have name. Is it like betrayal of private domain then why are their so many blogger and moreover they are writing their blog in public domain so there is no such issue like privacy.
In that program barkha(anchor) gave a good example about the authenticity of the blogs it goes in this way
suppose there is a blog and it post a new topic(POST) about Kargil WAR and their is some conspiracy behind that war, corruption among higher levels of officer in politics and all. So where one would go for the authenticity of that blog, of that story, of that post.
some other factors goes in this way
- one will blog because you are feeling lonely, and you can blog to interact.
- Hindi blogging is increasing day by day and special thing abt that is content is really good, good matter. It shows that there are many who can write in Hindi also and very well, those ppl who didnt get any chance for any magazine and newspaper to write in it.
-Smsing and Emailing have made writting in short to some extent it affects writing, but blogging has revived the basic idea of writing and revolutionize that feeling.
-Rumours, gossiping always there back before independence but what was missing is Liberation and it has come through blogging. One can give comments for somebody who lives in england and about his blog, so this go vice versa. It gave a new high to writing.
meanwhile during break i watched another news channel TIMES NOW and there was another program which was giving the data for TOP 10 BPOs firms in India. It is following
10. EXL
9. HCL BPO

7. Infosys BPO
6. Wipro BPO

So friends that was all i remebered. See ya.
