  1. Pretty Wild!…. Also I created a post as well as a poll on my blog site about India Blocking Access To Blog Sites. Check it out!

  2. Who uses Geocities these days anyway? But seriously, that’s ridiculus. We’re in the 21st century, governments shouldn’t be blocking access to information.

  3. I’ve heard News Reports on TV that the ban will be lifted within 48 Hours

  4. Airtel GPRS with system is connecting but not opening any site my mobile numder is 9849326890, plz give solution for it.
