Also, because it's a new space free of the conventions guiding strictly "literary" forums, there is a new variety in the voices you hear. For instance, while the blog of a well-known critic like O.L.N. Swamy offer some erudite articles on literature and the dynamics of language growth, the debates it generates make for exceptionally interesting reading. The observations of M.S. Sriram, an established writer and a professor at the Indian Institute of Management, on the issue of hybrid identities also leads to many discussions. Arguing that narrowing down Kannada identity is counterproductive, he writes: "The search for a Kannada identity is like peeling an onion. If we go on excluding layers, we will be left with nothing but tears."
