Dear all,
One month ago, on Jan 26 2009, the never forget initiative
was launched. In the past one month, we have had over 4000 site
visitors, over 150 members in
our facebook group, and most importantly, over 90 members in
the team of volunteers. Not a bad start in my opinion :-).
As part of the celebrations of the first monthiversary, we have the following new developments to report:
1.
The blog has a new look, and it now looks just like the main website :). Thanks to Krishnakanth for modifying the blogger template.
2. There is an _upcoming events_ section in the left navbar at the
website now, and we have a volunteer meeting coming up in Pune on the
28th of Feb.
3. We were
covered in today's edition of "Intellient Pune".
4. We are now in possession of the complete official manifesto of Mr.
Suresh Kalmadi, the MP of Pune, provided by none other than his own
staff!
And
now, as always, is a set of options of what YOU can do to celebrate
this event :). If not today, then how about during the weekend?
1. Create a page
like Ajay has - listing his thoughts and plans. Amazing stuff in my opinion.
2. Go through the list of promises in
Mr. Kalmadi's manifesto, and help us tabulate them.
3. Help us collect the complete list of MPs and MLAs in the country. I
am sure there are websites with the info. We just need to make a clean
spreadsheet out of it.
4. Spread the word about the site. Blog about it [again :-) ].
5. Pledge to take charge of your city/constituency.
See the list for current leads.
6. Feel free to add to this list :)
cheers,
Animesh
