My good friend and colleague Hessam is working from Hyderabad in India for a month and a half, and while there he'll post blurps about his adventures, on his blog.

His flickr-account is already mostly indian shots, and there's even one of him, sporting a sultan look and his nice new beard. I am afraid he'll be staying over there...

On a similar note, Jan, Mr. Extreme Backgammon himself now blogs at bakebrain.net, in two languages, so now I can actually understand almost every second post he writes. On the backgammon side of things, he spiced up the extreme bits with Google Maps integration, and a nice customised search engine. Word!
