@Leonard Fernandes: Hey thanks, I had no idea other such websites existed! I’ll definitely keep an eye out for you guys. They may be my friends, but I will only choose the best service on the market :)

Hello Diwaker,
I wish I had friends like you. In India, we too offer print-on-demand at cinnamonteal.in – have been doing it for nearly a year now with about 40 books printed every week.
What’s life without a little competition?..:-)
Take care,

Leonard

Hi Diwaker – I agree with you that a printed book is an amazing idea. Just offering up another suggestion, as publishing a book is not for everyone… So the internet offers up a few other offers (as I mentioned above).

@Nicki B.: Hey, haven’t seen you around here before! :) The key difference is that you can get a real, printed book at Pothi (much like lulu.com). As a revenue source Triond sounds great, but a book to your own name is just something else don’t you think?

There's also another place that I write for, where you can get published online, called Triond. I have a lot of Indian friends that write for them, and you can publish novels and short stories and articles on nearly any subject you want, plus you get paid for your pageviews. Maybe this is another possible resource for people? Thank you for your post, Diwaker. I will have to check out Pothi.

@Chris X Edwards: India is an evolving market, so yeah, hoping it takes off! Here in the US for a while it seemed like lulu.com and others like it were taking off, but then Amazon started shoving them around. Big bucks often invite big trouble :)

Always wanted a paper copy of that bit torrented book that isn’t yours? ;->
I sense a big success with college students!
