    bharat :

    Maintain a google doc and update region—town —-state wise ….
    Pls dont waste a full post for regional launch(not for new providers)….
    At least restrict yourself for posts at Circle level
    Seriously most of us dont even read such posts…..
    TT guys pls make note of this

    Dear Bharat Khanna, 1.As per our site traffic specialty for BSNL 3G news (published on TelecomTalk) ,peoples from all over India like and reading the full news all the time so its not true that “most of us” not reading as you (Mr. Khanna) thinks.

    2.On social networking sites like Twitter,Orkut,Facebook and Google Buzz lots of people from the certain region/cities/states update their status with Our 3G news link that means people always like to read and share the TT’s 3G news and waiting for 3G news which most of comes from TelecomTalk.

    3.Every post on TelecomTalk got great response from its readers so “waste a full post for regional launch” is not correct one. We always track/check site traffic for all post after publishing on telecomtalk with our system.
