Justauthority is an interesting Indian site which allows users to search through judgments of the Indian Supreme Court. So if you’re one of those curious cats who is interested in the details of the Rajiv Gandhi assassination, or government cases against Reliance and other companies, or landmark cases, this free online resource might be useful for you.
IDYeah is a niche Pune based design and IT company which created this site.

I live in Bangalore, India, thousands of miles from where the candidates are slugging it out for the 2008 US elections.
However, there is something about the spring-in-his-step, poetic, inspiring, post-partisan and savvy Barack Obama that has made me much more interested in the 2008 US elections than any US election I have followed in the past.
I’d been intrigued about the Obama campaign from the first time I heard him on TV in the Democratic debates in 2007 and read his famous Democratic convention speech. Subsequently, I ended up reading his book ‘The Audacity of Hope’ and was struck by the candidness and broad strokes across topics within the book. I sensed some new directions, some concerns for real issues, and a hope that those issues that impact the future (energy, space exploration, moderation over brinkmanship) might be addressed by this man who seems more open to collaboration and reaching out to the rest of the world than his peers.
I’ll be keeping a close eye on how the Democrats play out the next few months.
