Bangalore IndiBlogger Meet 2009

We’re back, and we can’t wait for this meet to start! The Bangalore meet last year was a load of fun, and it was the meet that inspired so many others all over India. This time around, we have a session on the much awaited Windows 7 instead of the session on Live Writer. We also have a session on blogging rights and freedom of speech which will moderated by the guys at Mutiny.in. So if you’re from Bangalore or if you’re going to be in Bangalore this weekend, this is a must-attend event!

428 blogs with PR4 – now that’s a pleasant surprise! Although blogger still seems to be the preferred choice over wordpress, with 3976 on blogger and only 741 on wordpress.

Read the complete report here, where you can see the list of PR 8 blogs and other interesting information.

Binardyday has compiled rankings based on Alexa here. Frankly, I’m not a big fan of either PR or Alexa, so I can’t wait for him to complete his analysis which is going to include backlinks, technorati rank, number of social bookmarks and feedburner subscribers.
