i'm glad your site is around. definitely provides interesting reads throughout the day and some worthwhile debates. hell, i've been looking for something like this online for years. congrats on the milestone, and hopefully there will be many more.

Ever think about Google Ads? And if you all did not want to profit from SM, you could even donate proceeds to a neutral charity or something (maybe even after server costs).

Though I personally think it's acceptable for you all to profit from this blog. It seems like you all have put in a lot of work to this site, and it shows :-)

Just a thought.

Congrats! Keep up the good work. BTW What does "Sepia" means? Is it supposed to be "Sepoy"?

In all seriousness (rare moment) you guys rock, this is my #1 favorite website. The day is not complete unless I've snickered and snorted or gotten thoroughly riled up at reading the day's postings. Congratulations on your millenium posting!!

PS: love the new banners!

You're bookmarked both at home and work and are one of my daily "must reads." Keep it up, all!

14 · Mike on March 23, 2005 11:23 AM · Direct link

Congrats. I am waiting for SM's sassy little cousin from Calcutta to show up and turn your worlds upside down with his/her precocious charm.

Great job guys! I never made time for any websites before but that's changed now. A few friends have also picked up the same habit. It's nice to finally have a site like this...

Number of dates/lovinâ ANY of us have gotten because of SM: 0

Abhi, just wait until I move to LA. but can we skip the date?

16 · rasam415 on March 23, 2005 1:54 PM · Direct link

your guys site is dope ... My whole family reads it.

17 · MD on March 23, 2005 1:58 PM · Direct link

Hey who you callin' a fundamentalist and who said I hate you guys?

Seriously, though, good work. And ditto on the Google ads: you have enough traffic for it. I wonder what the ads would be for? India Abroad matrimonials, Starbucks chaitealatte (insert your own lame jokes here)......

18 · Amit on March 23, 2005 2:05 PM · Direct link

Amazing work. Simply love it.
You the BLOG-MEN.
View it everyday.

19 · rajesh on March 23, 2005 2:46 PM · Direct link

Just want to echo the statements above. Thank you for making my days at work less soul-stripping.

20 · senthil on March 23, 2005 3:12 PM · Direct link

Congrats guys...

Ineresting site..keep up the good work
You ABCDs are running riot though and a few more FOB and hot blooded desis are required to keep you "confused" guys out of the woods.. ;)

22 · Guava on March 23, 2005 8:04 PM · Direct link

Thank you mutineers. Here's to at least a few thousand more!

23 · Karthik on March 23, 2005 11:08 PM · Direct link

To the best desi bloggers on the web: Good work and thank you.

"basement of our North Dakota headquarters"

Wait, did you actually manage to snag one of these for your headquarters?? They're all over ND...

Abhi, this particular North Dakota girl would go on a date with you because she is absolutely fascinated by your blogging personality.

Keep up the great blogging!

25 · Abhi on March 25, 2005 2:21 AM · Direct link

Hey ND,
YES! You have deciphered the nature of our abode. This leads me to believe that you are either exceptionally clever and live in North Dakota OR you have been sent by someone to infiltrate our group by beguiling me with flattery. Either way I now have a reason to like the great state of North Dakota besides this blog.
Thanks! ;)
