Welcome to where you belong!
I am starting this blog, to basically connect the "Indian Diaspora" from all over the world, the inspiration was a conference I attended at the University of Hyderabad titled - "Indian Diaspora - Trends, Issues and Challenges" Feb 24-26, 2005. The University currently has a - Centre for the study of Indian Diaspora.
It was a refreshing, invigorating and very passionate intellectual and academic outpouring from Non-Resident Indians (NRI), People of Indian Origins (PIO), the Desi's etc.
I welcome anybody that is intersted in the phenomenon of "Diaspora" to use this blog, all you will have to do is email me .
I am Cecilia Abraham, currently enrolled for a Ph.D at the University of Hyderabad, Hyderabad, my evolving thesis will deal with “Films on the Indian Diaspora".

best of luck in your endeavour. i'm glad that this is a topic of study, being an indian american in the diaspora. a professor i had at stanford, who has since left for swarthmore, may be of interest to you. her name is bakirathi mani and she taught a phenomal class on this topic of indians in the diaspora. keep updating your status on your site and sepia mutiny so we can all follow along.
Thanks for your encouraging comment Giri.
