It was December 2006, I was first introduced to Orkut - then India's sole authority of Social Networking. Orkut's influence was so deep in me that it took a heavy toll in my office work. Literally, I worked in between Orkutting; I explored each and every bit of its user-interface, joined 1000 communities(that was the maximum limit),argued in heated debates in many communities, made friends with 100's of virtual users(some of them turned into close friends now);this process continued for the next 3-4 years. In the mean time, I explored Facebook and Twitter too - but both failed to appeal me. In particular, Facebook, was just useless to my tastes and community discussions.
One of the things I liked in Orkut is surfing through different persons profile and studying their mindset by glancing over their interests, books, movies, music etc. In one such occasion I was intrigued by a term called "Webpage" and correspondingly a blogspot address was there. Only then I knew that each individual could create their own webpage and pen their garbage.
From that moment I was so restless and desperate to create my own garpage. Just in the next few days I did create a blog for me, Thanks to Office Net. As like anyone who had bitten by a blog-bug, I came up with minimum three posts in a week in my early stages of blog. They mostly contained amateur movie & music reviews which are unbearable to read now.
Over a period of time, I came through a lot of Tamil blogs and influenced by them, I came up with a post by toiling till midnight 2.Interestingly, a set of dedicated folks who read my blog regularly praised like anything and advised me to continue in Tamil. (I sensed their minds saying- Enough killing English) I have no other option than to continue in Tamil since I’ am not ready to lose my one or two readers. From there on my journey with Tamil began and its still going smooth. If you want to have a risk, here’s the link: http://musicmahesh.wordpress.com
Have a deep breath!!
Again now, before few months a terrible idea popped in my mind. Why can't I have one more blog exclusive for English? I always love keep changing (only) things; I can't settle in anything over a period of time. That's the reason I switched from WordPress to Blogger now.Though I kept pondering about creating a blog since last few months, things didn't get materialize till this auspicious Independence Day. Anyway what a great day to launch a blog!! It’s just a pure coincidence!!!
