Hello,

Thank you for visiting. Hope you liked my blog. Since you are here to know more about me and this place, I guess its best I answer THE fundamental questions:

• Who?
• What?
• Why?
• Where?
• When?

The ‘Who?’

Firstly, thanks for having a little interest to know who I am, though I’m not sure why you want to. Anyways, I’m a student pursuing engineering in the computer science branch. Loyal to my branch of study, I’m at my PC at least four-to-five hours a day. (Most people around me think that’s a lot of time that I spend at my PC, but hey, that’s what I am.)

And all the while on the PC, I’m either hooked onto the internet or playing Counter-Strike or programming. And if you find me online, I’d probably be blogging, or visiting various forums, or playing Runescape World of Warcraft, or managing ‘Frology!‘, and occasionally, I stumble too. And in my *other* free time (which I never happen to get now-a-days!) I do write poems, and short stories and essays. 

College, being 14KM from my home, is just wonderful. We hardly have classes, (quantitatively as well as qualitatively). So, in the free time, we end up playing cricket. There are a lot of open spaces around my college and we make best use of them. (I hope to post a few pictures of them)

Edit: College is actually, 12.5 KM from home – I checked it on my bike’s odometer. Nowadays we have more classes – only quantitatively. And any free time we get, we usually think of getting back home and enjoying a quick nap. (Yeah – To think of it, we’ve become a little lazy!) Also, the open spaces around the college are diminishing; thanks to the land boom, which has spread to our college area.

I’m a tech freak, and no it’s not a mental disorder! I get fascinated by all the new gadgets that come out to the market. I do hold long discussions (and arguments) about them with friends too. Not much of a crazed TV viewer or a movie go-er. But yeah, I do catch good movies occasionally at a theater or just rent it, or even download it. (Sssh..!)

And to think of the fact that you are still reading this, you must be a very patient person like me. Or you must be that desperate to know about me. Well, it seems like you haven’t lost your patience yet. But unfortunately, I have. That’s all folks. Thanks for knowing me! I bet it will help you someday!

The ‘What?’

A Blog (a short for weblog) is a chronological collection of information. A blogging system such as WordPress is a web-based application which allows creation and maintaining of such a Blog. This blog is about me: My ideas, thoughts, rants, and writings.

Update: I found an awesome video that makes you know what a blog is all about, in plain English!

The ‘Why?’

A Blog is a platform to express oneself. It signifies the writer’s freedom of expression and provides a reader base which consists of everyone who is connected to the internet. In accordance, this blog is my feeble voice shouting into the WWW.

The ‘Where?’

Physically, I’m from Bangalore, India. For anyone on the web, this is my home in the Web Wide World!

Other places on the net that you may possibly bump into me:

• Frology!
  Owner, Administrator, Content Manager and Moderator
• DNTemple
  Administrator
• Prosoft Studio
  Chief Operating Officer (not very different from an administrator, but I like my designation!
• Orkut
  (Not a big fan of it anyways)

The ‘When?’

This blog was officially created at the end of 2006, when it was actually my collection of jokes and funny email forwards. It was called ‘Whatever!’ which is now rechristened as ‘Frology!’ which can be found here.

That must basically answer much about me and my blog. If you have anything to say or ask, feel free to use the form below.
