They say, to a hammer, everything looks like a nail. That explains why I would want to try and make a blog behave like a bloody website. It's coz I'm an IT guy.
But don't worry, it's not that difficult to navigate this little 'website' of mine. You can go through the Short Stories and Poems that I have written over the years and put here as a, sort of, repository slash gallery. Needless to say, I'd appreciate if you could leave your comments. Good ones are fine. But the badder and uglier ones would be that ones that would interest me more (another IT trait...give me feedback so that I can improve the software) :-)
The 30 Day Challenges are an inspiration I got from Matt Cutts TED Talk where he said that previously he felt that his life was slipping away and he felt there wasn't much he was doing about it. In a Goosebump inducing moment of clarity, I realized that was exactly how I feel too. So he started doing various 30 day challenges to try and learn new things or experience new...well, experiences. So I squeezed all the creative juices from my brain and came up with a fantastic plan. I would do what Matt does. Write a blog about it. Ha Ha Ha. Yet another IT trait...Ctrl+C....Ctrl+V.
