Global Voices is holding its annual summit at India Habitat Centre, New Delhi.

Yours truly and Shivam Vij were at the meet but I have to write a post yet. Sakshi talks about the first two sessions and gives a flavor of the agenda.
Ethan Zuckerman, the co-founder of the forum shares his thoughts on the translation of posts from various languages, so as to reach more and more people.

Kamala Bhatt rounds up the first day’s thoughts.
Update: Jace has photographs from the conference at Flicker.
