Here I tried to create something like global news portal with the help of people, Google blogger and some backend technology(Zend, PHP, Perl, RSS, OpenSolaris, Sun Virtual Machies).
Why I do this:
- Follow "Simplicity is the ultimate sophistication" rule. samachar.com was good but now it's complex, full of adds,limited to indian sites and languages and lot more MNC stuff.
- Prevent flasy ads, roll-over animation. Just have pure static news headlines and description.
- Since it is static, It's very fast to load and non-irritating.
- Since it is not own by MNC, Chages are quite fast. No SDLC.
- Create something called SnapShot to search/browse the news headlines by date.
