Laksha.net Updates...

I am planning to put some hours in enhancing the www.laksha.net in coming weeks to include some online services. It will have a directory listing for Indian stores, Indian restaurants and other business running by Indians. It will also have customs pages for some businesses. Deal sharing is something we always do and many web sites supports that using online forums. Now what about having a WIKI kind of functionality where people can update the main deal page of the website rather then discussing and finding in forum. All this and more so stay tune...
