Adjudciators comment

Comments of Ms. Ayesha Taranum (Oneofthejudge):
Ashwini P
Very good range, participated whole heartedly and loved writing in the competition. Would have been cherry on the cake, had she responded to comments or added her friends on her blog list

Mahadev Swamy
Excellent example of learning and trying, kept the spirt and wrote well as days went by, should have concentrated on spellings and grammer, but thought process has to be appreciated. Major Greek fan :), very vocal about his feelings and thoughts, he has.

Divakar
Has tried his best to improve

Nagaveni
Wrote well whatever little she put in.

Raghavendra N
Looks like he digged in deep to understand the way of blogger working. Intersting posts.

Mary
Language is an issue again, but a good try

Pradeep Raju
Kept users updated of latest happening, lost password and bounced back, but if he was a little more frequent, would have done wonders :)

Chithra Sastry
Writing what u like is what makes blogging interesting, this girl spoke her heart, hopefully she should continue blogging

Karuna N
Good job, played around with words, images, but lacked the zing

Nagashayana
Could have done a great job, but somewhere lost the enthu I guess

Manjunath SR
Could have done a better job, language must be a constraint for him, but well tried

Chaitra
Though her blog was named Ambitious, she had her feet on the ground. Good writing ability and explains the concepts in a understandable laguage

M Sunil
Has tried his best to overcome the nuances of writing, would have been great, had he been regular and more informative!!?? (BTW >> I like this guy, he thinks I am kewl, check his last blog post ;))

Asha
Good range of subjects have been choose, am not sure if those are her own words or copy pasted from else where. Nevertheless a very informative blog. Would have been good, if the sources were acknowledged

Ramamani
Has tried his best, got a little hay-way, but a good job nevertheless

Pramodini
Played safe, picked a subject and is still continuing!!!

Ashok R
Dabled with pictures etc, but content was rare

Chidananda
Has the capability, but utilised it in putting up quotes.

Meenakshi
Language

Raghu TK
Variety of topics touched, though off 15 days blogged for less than 6 days..Good try, could have been good competion, but never got into the real race!

Ravikumar K
Has tried utilising the image features etc. Atleast tried giving it a new background, but hasn’t bothered about formating the text etc.

Shivaprakashy
Has played around with some of the pic tools and colors etc. Choice of work posted is good. Would have been great, had he written with more concentration on sentences and spellings.

Smitha Prahalad
Started with some promise, but lost the race very early

Hari GRG
Some more meat, and concentration at what he writes, he would have been a close competition

Ashwini Shetty
Stayed on the safe path, cut paste from everywhere, but the topics were quite interesting, atleast I learnt how to put my best foot forward

Raghavendra
Tried various options of posting pictures etc, but failed at the color of the text and just lost interest?

Skumar
Good range, took some pains to atleast make an effort to post on what he thought, promising, but did not venture more

Srinivasa Naika
Has played around with color, text formating etc, but none of the blog posts are orignial, as in they are cut paste from other websites. Frequency, content are high, but what lacks is, making it personalised. Am lost in giving ranking here. I liked the bl

Alvin
Has a flair to write, but did not leverage on it

Harish
Well…laziness prevailed

Harish HT
Played around a lot with images, but never got to put words to pictures.

Amrutha N
quite capable, but Alas!

Syed Mudassir
Must be suffering from writer's block, did not visit after first two days!

Mahadev Prasad
Lazy????

Siddalinga Swamy
Interest level low or is it am busy and lazy?

Rajendraprasad HN
Did not even participate in the race???!!!

Naveenama
I don’t want to give her any marking, but a special prize for saying what she feels. Sir, please help me meet her, when I am there



Comments of Sri Sreeharsha (2ndJudge):
Alvin John Chandra
Except couple of Blogs like Man of words… & Love birds, there is hardly anything to read

No exuberance

Most of the content are CTRL+C & CTRL +V. But looks like she has searched well to get them

Just pictures with quotes, will not do any wonders

Did not continue the initial spirit

Smitha Prahalad
Did not continue the initial spirit

Sreenivasa Naika
Has chosen my favourite topic - Search Engine.:-) And also played with colour. With right color combination it could have been a treat to watch his blog. For ex. Blog on "About Search Engine" doesn't exist unless you block the whole text. Good work on Quotes too.

Good to watch!!!

Sunil M
Special Oota reminded me my MLIS days when I used to stay @ hostel during exams…Apart from that its ok ok

Syed Mudassir
Did not continue the initial spirit
