The First Post of my First Blog



When I say that this is the first post of my first blog, I mean to say that this is the first post of my 6th blog.. I'm serious. The blogs before this one, all of them had their lives cut short due to either me getting fed up of posting or the lack of interest of my pals in them or maybe because I didn't give out their urls' at all.. Six is the official number.. If I counted all those blogs that I created and abandoned on the same day itself, the list would run into the high thirties..

Anyways, my first blog with 'some' audience was 'Keeping Track Always.' It was a huge hit (among my pals) and it has notched up more than 5000 hits till now.. Yeah, I don't post there anymore but given the number of controversial articles and the sense of nostalgia that it evokes in ex-Paulians means that I still keep getting comments on its' posts now and then..

The second blog that I started was 'Singh.Sid: Photoblog'.. It was more of an experiment than a regular blog.. I used to click photos with my trusty old phone and then I used the WLAN network in my college (I had a cultural festival going on in my college at the time) to post photos to the blog.. I stopped posting when the festival ended as Flickr was more convenient..

The third blog of mine was called 'Analysis&Unschmucks'.. I actually posted a whole lot of articles on this one before giving up.. And about the name.. I was reading a Grisham 'the bar' novel at the time and I was fascinated by all those fancy names the big law firms had.. you know.. like 'Baker & McKenzie'.. 'Hunton & Williams'...

The 4th blog I started was interestingly named 'Deja Mu'..probably the most personal of all my blogs..And the 5th blog that I started was 'Meditating Chu Chu'.. again, interestingly named..I had fun with both of these blogs but.. it was time to move on, I guess...I've deleted 'Deja Mu' but 'Meditating Chu Chu''s still there..

And now, finally, I've started this blog with a highly imaginative name 'Singh-Sid-Singh'.. Let me wish myself 'Bon Voyage..'
