When I saw the title of this article, I thought "Oh, New Delhi has a sim to itself, just like Amsterdam and the like." But no, instead, it's a sort-of-fluff piece about how the majority of India's SL users are from New Delhi. At the risk of sounding boorish: So what? Is that really a fact strong enough to carry an entire article? The rest of the thing is mostly outsider information about SL and LL, with a bit more about India thrown in. Honestly, the whole thing has me scratching my head -- and I've been recently flea dipped, so I know it's not parasites. I mean, Go India and everything, this is no slur on New Delhi by a longshot, just ... huh?

1. Well... personally I think that it is a fact to carry an entire article and it says something about where tech and technology advancement is placed in the world. India has about 15% of the worlds population with that many people you would think that SL use is spread across the country (like in the United States.) If a study came out that said SL use in the United States is coming mainly from South Carolina, there would be a serious inquiry into why that is the case? Are there new tech jobs appearing there? Is technology more widely accessible? Are people more technology knowledgeable? I mean, with as huge of a population that India has, why in the country are the majority of users for SL hailing from New Delhi (one can make assumptions). A statistic like that says something very important about the social, technological and possible future marketing climate for India.
