The Indian blogging scene is seeing a more marked change as compared to its English counterpart. To a great extent it is due to these characteristics of Hindi blogging:
1. English blogging had much more time to grow and mature before it was marginalised by the social networking platforms such as Facebook and Twitter. Starting in 1994, English blogging reached its pinnacle sometime in 2005-8 and then its pre-eminence went down. Hindi blogging started much later but Hindi users adopted social networking almost simultaneously with English users.
2. English users have adopted professional blogging on a large scale. Hindi bloggers have remained personal bloggers. Those who wanted to express better or had problem with English or wanted to earn money through their creations on the web either switched to blogging in English or started posting on YouTube (and other video platforms) rather than sticking to mainstream blogging.
3. In its peak, around 2010-15, Hindi blogging was marked by a number of blog communities, aggregators, web-magazines and other forms of collective/ curated blogging. Once the importance of blogs as medium of communication declined, the relevance of many such efforts, especially communities, also went down. That has eroded the value of blogging as shared self-expression and creativity.
4. Some good newspapers had started blogs on their platforms, giving blogging a high pedestal in online publishing sphere. These would mostly be reproduction of their columns. but some of them allowed others to open blogs. That too is no longer prevalent, except for a few.
The present post lists the best among the remaining collectives on Hindi blogging scene and also prominent web magazines. However, in the case of aggregators, since they are feed-based compilations, not quality but regular updation has been considered.

हिंदी ब्लॉगोस्फीयर (याने ब्लॉग संसार) में कई बदलाव इन वर्षों में देखे गए हैं, जो कि अंग्रेज़ी ब्लॉगोस्फीयर की तुलना में अधिक बड़े हैं. इसके कई कारण हैं, उनमें से एक है हिंदी ब्लॉगों के समूहक, हिंदी ब्लॉगिंग प्लेटफार्म और हिंदी की वेब-पत्रिकाओं का क्षीण हो जाना.
इस पोस्ट में हमने हिंदी के प्रतिष्ठित समूहक, ब्लॉगिंग प्लेटफार्म इत्यादि के लिंक दिए हैं. (हालांकि समूहकों को गुणवत्ता के आधार पर नहीं आंका गया है क्योंकि वस्तुतः ये फ़ीड के माध्यम से स्वतः पोषित होते हैं.) अगर कोई उत्तम स्तर के वेब मैगज़ीन, ब्लॉगों पर चर्चा करते ब्लॉग या समूहक हमसे छूट गए हों तो इस ईमेल पर सूचित करने का कष्ट करें: kp.nd.2008@gmail.com.
