As of today, the third generation Indo-Dutch a new hangout: the weblog Indian 3.0 . This blog is a collaboration of two Indo's third generation, Kirsten Fox and Ed Caffin. Indian 3.0 refers to the third generation Indonesian Dutch people over the Internet to find each other. Fox and Caffin who want to blog from a new, fresh approach to respond to Indian news and issues.
Indian 3.0, the immodest ambition of the Indian group publicly to encourage their own independent identity check. The bloggers will write about this specific events related to their Indian character. The one time that a trip to Indonesia, another time an Indian festival. An identity is not something to just talk about it. Therefore, Caffin and Fox also organize activities themselves, which they publish on this blog. The first of these will take place on the fiftieth Pasar Malam Besar in The Hague, on May 23, 2008, and is called Tattoo Talk.
