Photos! Photos!!... More Photos!!!

Hi All,
Browsing through the photos on our group-site, I thought that for a group of 1500+ members, the number of albums/photos is rather low. Those who are into photography in any big or small way, are invited to display their craft on our group-site.

Goa is more famous for its beaches & churches, but the temples of Goa are equally worth seeing. I have captured a few through my camera. The images are available in the Goa Photos album. Kindly browse through them. Some feedback/tips would be great!

To access the Photo archives, visit: http://groups.yahoo.com/group/marathidtnet

Sign in, and go to the Photos department.

Keep clicking, keep sharing!

Yours,
-G.

Welcome to Marathi.Net !!

Namaskaar !!

Welcome to Marathi.Net blog. This blog would serve as an companion site to our Yahoo! Group, the Marathi.Net. Primary objective is to keep a record of discussions & decisions that have shaped the group over the years. We might also be able to note how - or, whether - the group has evolved for better!

Those who are unaware about Marathi.Net Yahoo! Group may take a look in here:

MdN Mind Storms volume III

Dear All,
Welcome to third edition of Marathi.Net Mind Storms!

Mind Storms is a collection of some of the interesting debates and discussions held at our Yahoo! Group, the Marathi.Net. This volume is 45 pages long and contains 12 debates. The selection of these debates was a personal choice, and I hope to have done justice to it, in terms of content and interest-level. No change has been made to the contents, except a rudimentary spell-check, and some formatting to make the text more readable.

A disclaimer: The views and opinions presented here belong to the respective contributors, and they should not be taken as collective mindset of Marathi.Net group as a whole.

You may wonder what purpose such a compilation serves. The benefits are manifold.

1. Not many of us would browse through message-archives to read upon past stuff. However, to have a compilation like this makes us at least take a glance.
2. Message archives are accessible only to group-members. This document is something that you can share with your friends.
3. Creating this document is itself something of a joy. It makes me take a ride down the memory-lane and re-live those past months once again.

The document is available for dowload at http://www.esnips.com/web/MarathiNet

Do go through it. Am sure once you begin reading, you will not close it until you have been through it completely.

A genuine Thank-You to all whose names feature in pages to follow. You make Marathi.Net a place worth being a part of.
Keep writing, keep arguing!

MdN File Archives open to all

Dear Friends,

As you will be aware, Yahoo! has increased the group file space from 20 MB to 100 MB. This is something we have been asking for long, as we always had to remove some files to make space for others to upload. Now, we no longer need to bother about such constraints... there is ample space for all! We believe that our members are mature enough not to misuse this freedom of file-space.

MdN Files section is open to all members to upload their stuff. Please do not forget to drop a mail to group informing about the upload. On our part, we are uploading some of the files that were removed earlier due to space-crunch. Of course, MdN veterans would be having most of those. New members are requested to go through them... they truly represent the Best of MdN.

To access the files, visit: http://groups.yahoo.com/group/marathidtnet
Next, go to Files link. MdN Archives are available at, where else, MdN Archives folder.

Browse, Upload, Download, & Enjoy!

Ganapati Bappa Morya !

Dear All,
Ganesh Chaturthi is here ! To allow you to share your joy with other members of Marathi.Net, we have following :
