Memorial to some Flatlined XLRI Blogs

Lets start with
XlCampus
Professor Fenn has written a touching last note.

Time to pick up the spade

Hello again,

Lets call a spade a spade. This blog didnt acheive its objectives. It was meant to be a shared resource that spoke about informal events on campus. The dream was that there would be someone on the residential part of the campus, perhaps a young budding journalist, some student from the other part of the campus, and some faculty and staff who would write about informal events on the campus. A way of putting our life online.

The good news is that XFactor can be downloaded from one of the XL blogs. If u r an Xler, U know which blog it is. If you don't you know how to mail me or Mad Shuks : )

That's my round up of Blogs that have flatlined. Anyone want to add more to this list or the current blogroll. Drop me a comment on this post.

I found this on The Best of X-Factor and I think its very apt to be posted here.

  11. hmm....

    me from 2005....working now with Dr.Reddy's..Hyderabad..guess what you had a major 'hand' in getting me through in XL.

    I read up 60 pages of google on XL before the interview....and it were the early days of the net then (not so many forums as today)..and the most information I found about XL was from sites related to you...found some of your pics and stuff....advice on tulleho etc.

    I told the panel all that I had found ...and they were quite amazed :)
