Tomorrow is Raksha Bandhan, and trust us to put a tech angle to this too. And why not, when we have the net to do all our Rakhi shopping, be it for gifts for your sister, or the other way around, superb Rakhis for your brother. This is a list of nice sites that provide Rakhi and gift services. Bring out the ‘pedas’! And for the ladies, if that geeky looking tech reviewer is following you around office, send one to him too, nothing like a Rakhi to tell a guy to f*ck off...Indian Gifts Portal

These guys have a Rakhi sub domain, and provide global delivery, and also claim 24 hour delivery. It’s a bit daunting at fist, with links arranged everywhere on the homepage itself, but if you have the patience to sort out slowly what you want, there is everything from Kids Rakhi (Power ranger and Bal Ganesha cuties) to chocolate gift hampers. So if your bro/sis is abroad, then this is a nice place to send them a gift, as they accept all cards. It is a bit expensive though overall, the next site is slightly reasonable.Rakhi-gifts

Another sweet Rakhi dedicated site, with apparently lesser prices. This one too obviously has the red and orange Indian festive color scheme, but it's better laid out than the previous one. Clear links like Gold rakhi, rakhi for US delivery etc. are vertically aligned on the left, so it’s easy to see. There are the works - Rakhi gift hampers with Mithai boxes, dryfruits combos etc. Also there is the Gifts for sisters section where one can choose from Chocolates, soft toys, Jewelry, everything under the sun.Surfindia.com

One more choice, a differently laid out site with only thumbnails of Rakhis spewed across, starting from 150 bucks and going onto higher prices. You can sort by price, popularity and more easily select your gift due to the ample illustrations. They too accept al cards and guarantee delivery within a day.
