Regulars have probably noticed a slowdown in the volume of posts on Über Desi. We attribute that to a variety of reasons: work, family, social life. However, we have been active on Twitter (twitter account and hashtag).
Tweeting leaves me with mixed feelings, while it makes getting the word out much easier, I feel like I’m neglecting this blog. While I love writing, I was never really into long winded posts. This stems from among other factors, suspected mild ADD affliction and an intense dislike for fluff. So while still doing regular blog posts (emphasized for effect), I will also be experimenting with using Twitter to compose some posts on this blog. Now these posts, may not quite resemble our regular form of posting. Also, Twitter presents its very own unique set of challenges. For instance, a tweet can only be 160 characters long and this has to include the link and hashtag, effectively reducing it to around 130 characters.
We built this blog with blood, sweat and Sanjaya. Über Desi was created to bring together thoughts, stories, anecdotes, gossip on everything Indian, American and Indian-American. Über Desi is our #1 priority and while we’re evolving and adapting, we’re also keeping the good stuff intact. So, we urge you, our readers to be patient and hit us with feedback on how we can improve this twitter-to-blog experience.
