Love reading and sharing interesting blogs? We are looking for guest contributors for DesiPundit for a period of one month. We are looking for five people and we might invite couple of them to stay on as regular contributors at the end of the month. You don’t have to be a blogger but must have a strong regularly-updated blog list in your feed reader. If you are interested, click for details:
Email me at patrixblogs [at] gmail [dot] com (or leave details in comments below) with the following – Name, Blog URL (if applicable), and number of blogs you read on a regular basis (most important factor). It definitely helps if you have been sending in tips regularly. If you are reading blogs already linked frequently on DesiPundit, don’t bother. Deadline – April 11, 2008 midnight.
Update: Thanks for the great response. The guest contributors will be announced Monday after the invites go to the selected ones over the weekend.

Hi!
Can I help?. I read regularly 5 to 6 blogs every day. Not more!
But must warn you: I have been a blogger only for the last few months and how do you know, the ardour will not cool off soon?
However, if you are in a recklessly optimistic mood..

Rada,
5 to 6 blogs is unfortunately too few.
Now only if I could know that but unfortunately I can’t even tell that about myself let alone others.

Rambler, mentioning number of blogs you read just gives us an idea of the variety of links you can post. No one would like you to see post links from the same 5-10 blogs, right?

I am not quite sure of what exactly you are looking out for.I average anything between 15 to 20 blogs everyday [these days]…Hope this helps!!!

What I should have mentioned is that I read 5 to 6 new blogs every day!
Anyway, I think you are right: Let me cross the 50 posts/5 months bridge first. Then hopefully, I will feel more confident of enlisting myself!
Cheers!

Hello DP:
I no longer have a blog, but I used to own seven blogs. My most popular blog was BollyTheater.blogspot.com
In less then two months I was able to get 59 subscribers. I provided free movies and music online, technology’s tutorials, and talked a lot upon India. Now I am a hyperactive contributor to http://www.rambhai.com , my website that I do not update is http://www.HarPalYahan.com, which is only a chatroom. But If you are interested in seeing my work and how much i read you can give a visit to rambhai.com. This week i have commented more then 80 times on several stories. I joined RamBhai couple weeks back and there I have had great success, people never used to comment on any of the stories but since I started commenting on different stories more and more people started commenting which encouraged others to comment, and now many people often comment on RamBhai. Stories used to be voted max 20 times, now the stories are being much more popular and the contributors are getting their hardwork payed for, which means I have contributed as a savior of RamBhai. I hope you take it seriously and look at my achievements. Even though I don’t blog my blogging passion has yet to gone, I still come online many times and constantly looking to post something and share my thoughts. i read a lot too. Just try me once and you won’t be let down. Plus i consider myself great in researching anything and everything. So if any of your readers would have any questions I will surely answer them. And i love this idea of several contributors contributing to one work. And if this is a job you do not have to pay me, and I don’t want any share of the advertisements either.
