I am happy to inform you all that our group SpiderIndia has successfully completed 4 years. 

During these years we have exchanged close to 1500 messages with lot of information and numerous interesting photographs. We have also crossed 250 members mark recently and growing.

One of the interesting feature this year has been Photo of Year 2008. http://diversityindia.blogspot.com/2009/02/spiderindia-photo-of-year-2008.html which is receiving good amount of hits.Anyone still wants to share some photo for the same is welcome to do it. We would definitely continue this in years to come.

I hope from this year on the lines of ButterflyIndia meets, we should initiate SpiderIndia meet where we will visit a place together and watch spiders. This will give members opportunity to interact and learn from each other and share knowledge. Please do write me back if you feel it is a nice idea to try and organize a SpiderIndia meet. (If you are not familiar with ButterflyIndia meets visit the Blog and check some posts about ButterflyIndia meet @ http://butterflyindia.blogspot.com/)

Please feel free to give suggestions to improve the groups interactions and share this message with friends and groups who might be interested in spiders.

I would like to thank all the members to make this group such a nice place to learn about wonderful world of spiders.

Thanks and regards,

Vijay Barve
