Food for Your Eyes | Pokhara Rendezvous Series 12

Up north behind Mt Fishtail.
Touched by the virgin rays of sun.
When the north wind blows one late afternoon.
Moonrise on Machhapuchhre, a precious view.
When cloud sweeps the valley and sunlight pierces Pokhreli skies one early morning.

Nepali Bloggers Worldwide E-Conference

The idea is just hatched. Salik is in the forefront of this idea. The date and agendas are open until now. Feedback and suggestions in this regard will be highly appreciated.

Blogan did not see much development except couple of meetings but I'm unaware of the reasons. Personally, I was not able to attend the meeting.

The main problem of Nepali bloggers is access and affordability of resources to blog. Most of them are from Kathmandu valley and a lot of others are from the diaspora abroad. To build a vibrant and strong online bloggers community we need at least one blogger representing each district of Nepal; disrespect of whether one is physically in his own district while blogging. It will help a lot to understand views, ideas and opinions that would come from different parts of the country. Again, access to resources is a huge problem. Lets find ways how we can work on this.

We would welcome ideas that would help us define our agendas and issues, even its very objectivity. Salik and me , we do have some agendas in our mind.
What's your take on this?
