Ankit, New Delhi: Jul 1 2008

Today somebody asked me a simple question.

What you want from Instablogs? What is Instablogs’ core mission?

A thousand answers came to my mind instantly.

We serve news real fast, covering almost entire planet. Have a very colorful and vibrant community… etc

But then the real answer struck me

Imagine a world without borders.

Imagine a world without wars.

Imagine a world without cultural bindings.

Imagine a world interacting.

Imagine Instablogs.

Yes, this is what we are doing. And I, with the entire team of Instablogs, am proud of it.

And if you have any doubt, I invite you to watch our Daily news video show - Global Report.Every day we have 5-6 stories from different citizen journalists from entirely different regions, cultures, nationality, dialects coming together and working in a team to produce this show.

I firmly believe if we can bring common people together and let them communicate, we can solve some big problems.

What do you think?

Yes, I through Instablogs have met so many people from such diverse places that it is really unbelievable. The best part is that I get the opinion from the horse’s mouth not from a correspondent who is reporting for his audience.

My opinion about many thing’s have changed, because here I find people persuading me with the real reasons; nobody imposes his view on me.

It has been really great and I hope the journey continues eternally.

Instablogs is very much issue-based and grounded to reality. It is an amazing community of people thinking aloud and making a chain of thoughts. We have a world here without boundaries...

Ankit,

You have not left much to be said. Your words are the undisturbed echo of my thoughts on Instablogs.

A platform wide enough to accommodate everyone; a universal mouthpiece of the world in true sense! That’s Instablogs.

Instablogs is great. Perhaps bigger and greater that one could have imagined in the world of media. This is making open media a real serious thing. But it is a few steps below what is the non-achievable, that's John Lennon's utopia that he so desired through his evergreen song - Imagine .

Being one of passionate members of this community since inception, I must acknowledge the USP of Instablogs is its strong base of citizen journalists all over the world, as opposed to other renowned and well respected media organizations who have their correspondents posted in different countries. The greatest advantage of this community is that the articles, issues and opinions raised here are straight from the horse’ mouth, as compared to reportage by foreign correspondents (of leading media organizations) whose views might be colored by their biases and prejudices. Finally I will say, coming together is beginning and working together is the success.

I ask WHY NOT ? I read somewhere GOOD THINGS COME IN SMALL PACKAGES... and this adage perfectly fits with Instablogs. Have you ever given it a thought how life would have been without instablogs? Lemme tell it. YOU AND ME,would not have got the opportunity to talk ( through our articles and comments on a platform like this. The best part which i appreciate about Instablogs is it doesn’t suffer from prejudices and has been successful in keeping the hidden Gimmick at bay ! Good job folks at instablogs.

I don’t know much but need to find out a lot…..For all, the answer is right here….

Why Instablogs?

Because there’s a heart here, and a soul. It’s alive, and the articles express that. Because I just read opinions from all over the world in 2 minutes. Yours. ISN’T THAT COOL?!!

I love this site.

Addicted? Sure. Big time. There are many worse addictions.....

If this is addiction, gimme the needle LOL LOL

Bravo to the whole team here!!!!
