Best Cricket Sites

Am compiling the list of the best cricket sites. If you have something to add. Just leave a comment and I will add it here

BBC Cricket

This low profile site from the BBC has latest news and covers most international and county games

Cricmania.com

Latest news, real time cricket content and good stats

Cricketnext.com

This site - now acquired by TV18 has undergone a lot of makeover- this site is worth a watch with lot of news & videos which I guess is a brainchild of Rajdeep Sardesai. Doesn't have too much of stats though

cricket.indiatimes.com

Everything else from Indiatimes is BAD except their cricket portal. Good for India Cricket News.

Off topic, NEVER USE INDIATIMES SHOPPING

cricinfo.com

The home of cricket and certainly is. Gets a little slow when India plays :)

mahacricket.com

New kid on the block. Little slow though

Top Indian Online Flight Booking Sites

The Airplane industry is booming in India - so are the online booking sites for Flights.

The following lists the most popular sites - most of them offer hotel packages as well in addition to online flight booking. This is no review of each site and I've personally used only Yatra.com which got the job done for me.

Here in no particular order..

cleartrip.com

Promoted notably by Ram Shriram of the Google, Junglee fame, Cleartrip stands out for simplicity and yet very usable in most of its features. Cleartrip seems to have the most popular airlines - Air Sahara, Indian, Jet Airways and Kingfisher. Certainly missing is Air Deccan. Also offers online hotel booking

makemytrip.com

Makemytrip claims to be the cheapest airfare site or they pay you the difference (gimmick!). Site is fairly usable and has tieup with 7 airlines and Air Deccan missing again.

arzoo.com

arzoo.com - a failed venture (I don't remember what it was before) by Sabeer Bhatia has been relaunched as a travel site - Has tieup with almost the same airlines as cleartrip. Also offers hotel, service apartment and holiday booking as well


yatra.com

Promoted by the TV18, Reliance ADAG and few more. Perhaps has the most tieups - most of the airlines in here including Spicejet, Indigo and Air Deccan. Very comphrensive and good service - the only one I have used.


mobissimo.in

Not exactly an Indian site - but does offer comphrensive flight information and connecting flights as well. Haven't seen it too much to comment but doesn't look bad at all.

travelguru.com

Has tieups with Air Deccan, Spicejet but no Kingfisher!

ghumo.com

No Indian - airlines that is, seems have to tieup with all the private players. Precaution than repenting ? :)

If you have some other site that you know - comment and let me know - Will include !

Blogs replacing TechSites?

Okay - I thought to myself ,When was the last time you visited a Tech site? About 2 years ago, I used to visit the tech sites almost few times a day - be it CNET, ZDNet or PCWorld.

These days, I hardly go to any of them - the other day I went to CNET and was petrified at the clutter on their site - is that the reason or these sites just don't have the information that people want? Or was it that certain "known" blogs are a better source of information than those sites. I see a story on Techcrunch saying that CNET is bleeding Traffic and I for one am not surprised!
