Broadband connections in India are not as fast as in Europe / US but they are good enough to update your blog. You'll find them everywhere in cybercafes. If you are lucky you might find some cafes where you can get speed upto 512 Kbps which is fast as per standards in India.

Happy Blogging ...

Do let me know your blog site. i love to read travel blogs. Here's my blog

Hi Andy,have just returned from India where on the whole we found the speed pretty good.Delhi,Mumbai and Jalandhar[Punjab] probably the quickest we found,Srinigar in Kashmir very slow,Varanasi also slow.We did not down load any photos,just took a couple of big memory cards.Have a great trip,kindest cheers,Carol Wilson.

There's a great chain of AC cybercafes in India called Reliance WebWorld. That's where you want to log on. Nice folks, fast connections, even a chai tea bar. Sign up at one location and use any location with your password.

Hey Dewayne,

Made it to Rishikesh finally after some more harrowing experiences. I'll put you on my email list and send you the details shortly. Glad to see you made it home in one piece, hoping i can do the same one of these fine days.
