Sajha has seen a lot of nicknames evolve and eventually disappear. Still there are many handles who have managed to remain constant without fadeing into the background. Some users like ashu, Sitara, Poonte, Deep, Nepeare here for some years and are unique in their styles and specialization. Like, ashu for business and "samsamayik gatibidhi" of Nepal, Sitara for short stories and wit, Poonte for humour and international relations Deep for Nepali stories and Nepe for gazals, Kavita and politics.
However, there are newer members who have different specializations like in photograhpy-- i_nepali aka bhanja, Aloneguy27 and therock. In the past, there used to be a guy call Arnico who used to post beautiful pictures of Nepal. Especially after Feb 1, I have noted Sajha has experienced more users and consequently more nicknames. In the new generation, there are lots of promising people like newuser, dadagiri, Ok, etc. , just to name a few. Also due to the emergence of Nepali unicode, Nepali story telling has become both easy and interesting. Dadagiri, Ok, pundit, Nirman, etc. have emerged as the new generation of storytellers emulating Deep and Gunaraj.
Still, some of the veteran old generation have vanished, for example, Biswo- a skilled political debater, Paschim, Arnico and even the astrologer Trikal. Still wondering if they are around in another avatar. And the new generation is also vivid and interesting. Each one has a unique way of writing and own interests. Guys, keep on posting about how you think of other users and what specializations they have.
P.S. I wish to type in nepali, but now too busy(lazy!!) to look for win Xp CD or even learn it for one hour. Hope to do it in summer holidays.
