In this article, we are going to talk about some of the top
Indian bloggers who have made their mark in Indian Blogging Industry and these
online entrepreneurs are called Webpreneurs.
So our first Webpreneur is Amit Agarwal who is the founder
of Digital Inspiration (www.labnol.org). Amit
Agarwal is a Computer Science Engineer from IIT Roorkee and he has worked for
ADP. In 2004, he left his job to become the first Indian Professional Blogger.
Amit was working in Bangalore in a Technology firm but he
wanted to live with his family in Agra but the biggest question was what he
will do in Agra because Agra was nowhere in comparison to Bangalore when it
comes to jobs and career. Freelancing was one option and this idea gave birth
to www.labnol.blogspot.com which
is now www.labnol.org.
The first post dealt with the new printer and its review,
which was purchased by Amit Agarwal, who knew at that time that it was the
start of blogging era. How big Amit Agarwal’s status is, can be understood by
the title given to him by HT, which is “Founder of Indian Blogging Revolution”
