Is Cricinfo maintained by Indians ? - Page 2

You people need to get a life. Cricinfo was a life line for us when there was limited access and activity in the internet. Kids are all spoiled. How much did you donate to make it better?

I personally never had much issue with cricinfo I'm more concerned about espn and the other subpages I visit every day, but that argument is only one side of the story regardless. Earlier versions of cricinfo were different from the current version which is owned by Disney exclusively for their business value and has been monetized well enough to make billions a year, thereby collecting plenty of donation from us vicariously whether we knowingly opt for it or not.

It's a free site. More traffic = more revenue.

Simple logic.

Not only cricinfo, but reuters, AP, AFP and plenty of other news media are run in parts by their back offices in India. One sixth of the World Population are Indians. In future, more and more things will be run by Indians (and Chinese).

Yeah, I wished that India or Pakistan wasn't in the world or at least not as our neighbors as they have always inflicted suffering upon us. Personally I wish we were an Island nation like Sri Lanka, we would be far more developed and free from outside influence.

Had there been no India and Pakistan, Bangladeshis would have lived a little more peacefully

Who cares who maintains it? Do you know what difficulty they went through when they started it?

Read this article on how cricinfo was established.
