Default Best Pakistani Web Sites !

Best Pakistani Education Sites:
Considering that the driving force behind the Internet's popularity in Pakistan is the student community, it is a surprise that few attempts are underway to cash in on the education market. Websites like eTaleem and U2Test easily rise to the top due to the distinctive nature of the services they offer on the scant e-learning scene - minus the presence of XYZ institutes and schools online, mind you. Judging on the basis of quality content and variety, we drew up a handful of links that students of all ages will find useful in their search for local educational references.

ETaleem www.etaleem.com

Best Pakistani Health and Fitness Sites:

Who needs the fountain of youth, when you can get the best in health by the click of a mouse? Admittedly, the online efforts initiated by Pakistanis are no WebMD.com but our own distinctive lot of medical help and fitness sites are no short of pleasant surprises. Our November 2000 coverstory explored Telemedicine in detail and as a result received tremendous feedback from doctors and health buffs alike. There is a great demand for locally developed health content however users need to be aware of the dangers involved in following practical instructions or medical advise offered online without appropriate authentication. Our pick of good health resources follows.

Best Pakistani Politics Sites:

To believe or not to believe, that is really the question. If the Internet would have been around two decades ago, it would be very popular with politicians and their potential voters - there were no 'free' public forums to speak of then. It is proving popular with the politicians today but it is hard to say what their target audience makes of the lengthy mission statements online. A few years of public scrutiny, not to mention the same politicians' time in office has made netizens skeptical of all the hot air blowing off the Websites of major political parties in the country. Why we think you should give them a click? Because the politically inclined have done a darn good job of it.

Best Pakistani E-zines: With the advent of the Internet, magazines have been given the opportunity to get wider coverage. While few of them are exclusive to the Web, most e-zines are an extension of the hard copy magazines available in the market, which are now offering some or all of their content for free online. At present, the number of Web surfers in the country is expanding at a phenomenal pace, and they are fast turning to e-zines for information and entertainment purposes.
