Since you consider Indians out side India as well, May I be included in this list?

Ah! you have even listed Rama Satoskar's Blog. She came in with no knowledge of Flash/Flex to our Oinam Team and she was one of those Promising Programmer we decided to groom into a good Flash/Flex Developer. I think she got busy with college. Should be worth getting back to her when the time is right.
Will check out the other sites.

Abdul you have missed me in the list :(
Posted by: Durairaj at January 28, 2007 11:10 AM
@Durairaj - I knew, I missed many. Nevermind, Can you please give the URL of your blog?
@Brajeshwar - Good to know you know her. Can you also give more links of India based flex/flash blogs..
Do you have any info about Delhi's based group, I gotta add Arpit's blog also. I don't see many posting on his blog lately.

Great initiative Abdul -- I've had the pleasure of working with some very skilled Indian Flash developers ver the last year so definitely think there's a huge potential for a very lively and active community to develop.

Abdul please find the URL of my blog. But i have started it yesterday only. :(
Posted by: Durairaj at January 29, 2007 01:05 PM
@Abdul, Yes, Rama was one of our trainee for Flex. I think Arpit moved to London and is more into managing than just coding. I think he is busy. I'll update you as I find other flash/flex blogs.

Hi Abdul,
Thanks for adding my blog, though haven't updated for a while, I am always looking to do it. I am still doing Flash coding, though not yet fully started with Flex :(
Since I moved to the UK, the Delhi Flash user group is no longer functional.
Anyway, love to read your blog, keep up the good work!
