During the course of ten days (1st January, 2009- 10th January, 2009) I have identified 69 blogs developed by the Library and Information Science Professional working in India. Out of 69, I found only 44 blogs<http://sites.google.com/site/lislinks/library-and-information-science-blogs-in-india> to be worth mentioned. The others are only with one or two posts (massage) or sometimes without any post. What the astonishing fact about the Indian Library and Information Science Blogs, I have noticed during my course of action is that they are not professional enough to catch a sufficient number of user base (except of course the blogs of LIS Links, with which I personally attached). Many of the blogs are messes with posts from different subject areas of LIS. While sometimes they post announcement regarding seminar, sometimes they post job vacancies in LIS, while at other times they are trying to act as a directory of Library and Information Science resources in some specific subject areas. I think the Indian Library and Information Science professional should comes up from the above problem and they should try to devote only to one or two specific subject only to catch more users.
I am sufficiently depressed by able to locate only five blogs (and all of from the works of "LIS Links") that are able to meet the criteria that is blog(s) with 100 posts (massage) or received 50 Web Hits daily or 25 regular subscriber. (Any one). (I will be glad to know if I missed out something really wonderful blog that able to meet the criteria set out above and if someone able to point out to that). With many many thanks to those who have really helped me in compiling such a huge list within ten days itself. -- LIS in India: What's going on?
