Several Things

Metroblogging Chennai is turning into a fun and often informative place to read about the city. Lately I have been most looking forward to the posts of David Appasamy (the link lists his latest posts on the site), many of which are about a Chennai which is vanishing or gone. The latest, for example, talks about Buckingham Canal when it was actually used to transport goods - something which is today hard to believe, seeing it silted up, polluted, almost destroyed.


A French website for travellers who create illustrated travel journals (carnets de voyage). Many beautiful images from members' carnets.
