News : Yahoo group is shutting down. All contents will be taken offline within a week. Yahoo group was so large a community in the 90s and before FB came to existence. And my war in social media more or less started with Yahoo groups.

Looking back there were 1000s of islamic groups in there, where people from all over the world visited, unlike FB, which right now is mostly country based communities. And I came to know about Salafi teaching, Ashari vs Athari debate first from yahoo groups.

There were also a lot of anti-islamic groups. The "Mukto Mona" group was born and started their activity in yahoo group. All the cross group fights and debates. All history now.

Before that there were IRC. Then came yahoogroups. Later BD participants flocked to somewhereinblog, which right now is access blocked from BD. Then came FB, which still is running. And I noticed most of our JI brothers have recently shifted to Twitter.

Time flies.

  • "কিয়াস" না, সে সম্ভবতঃ "ক্যাচ" বুঝাতে চেয়েছে ইংরেজিতে। "কথাটা কেচ করতে পারি নাই" গ্রাম দেশে বেশ প্রচলিত কথা।
