A post-debate article, on my take on the experience of being the only turban wearing Sikh at the first US presidential debate, has been published at Sikhchic.com. If the front page link is not working anymore, here is the permanent link.

I’m watching Sikhnet Film Festival. A great attempt by Sikhnet.com to share the video submissions for the annual festival at the same time. Sikhnet is using a web service mogulus.com which provides free broadcast.

At this point of time, there are 146 viewers watching the “35″- A documentary on the importance of learning Punjabi script by Sikhs. A very professionally made video by 19 years old Raj Singh. I’m impressed.

I invite more people to join Satluj, where we – a group of Punjabi Techies are constantly working on enabling softwares in Punjabi and Localization of Linux.

AjitJalandhar.com, one of the earliest Punjabi newspapers online, (and a mouth-piece of a certain political party – but thats a different story) is now serving not just politically biased news, but some freshly baked spyware forcibly to your PC!

Ajit spy Ware

What should you do?

  • Shift to Linux or Leopard
  • Use Firefox. On my Mac Book Pro, it showed the popup, but did not download the spyware, compared to Safari which did download the spyware. I would love to hear from windows Firefox users about their experience though.
