Some time back I realized that the net did not exactly provide satisfactory content when it came to Sukumar Ray the poet, author, illustrator, scientist, humorist, editor, photographer, reformer, etc. I did find some good stuff; but what ever I came across was inadequate. So, in August 1999, I decided to put in my two bits of effort and start a website to:
- introduce Sukumar Ray to the uninitiated
- to make available the at least some of his works on the net
- promote a forum for discussions on Sukumar
- to provide information on the "other" Sukumar

Currently available are the following categories: Life of Sukumar, Selected Works, The Other Sukumar, Links, Downloads and Interact. I hope to eventually put up the complete works. But as long as I am not being able to do so I will be putting up my favourites - in Bengali script, with sympathy for those do not speak the language of Bankim, Tagore, Saratchandra and Sukumar. "The Other Sukumar" will discuss the non-humorist facets of the personality named Sukumar. I have a beta version of the Abol Tabol in an e-book format that I am offering in the "Downloads" category.
