Thanks a Ton, Google:

Hey, I feel at the top of the world !!! Thats a cool feeling when you are the first of results in google. Just search for lazy geek in google and see my blog appearing at the top of the result else click here.

I know that google works on the number of links to the site and only based on that the ranking is made but I haven’t known how I reached there. Anyway feels like Di Caprio standing at the edge of Titanic and shouting. But …….am I drowning??

Looking at the nickname Lazy Geek, sometimes I am surprised as to how did I frame that. I think it was during on my midnight programming sessions at my project, I assumed myself as a guy who knows everything but pretty lazy to do put them in action. Looking back I feel it is viceversa. But this is what dictionary had to say about a geek

geek (gk)
n. Slang
A person regarded as foolish, inept, or clumsy.
A person who is single-minded or accomplished in scientific or technical pursuits but is felt to be socially inept.
A carnival performer whose show consists of bizarre acts, such as biting the head off a live chicken.

Where do u think I fit in ?..

Bloggers Blocked :

Thats a pretty good excuse ‘n’ explanation for the blogger’s block as defined by ceres. Here is what she had defined : *blogger’s block: a period of inability to write for your journal/web log; mainly because of a sincere wish to try and make it a useful one, and to stick by the standards you set for yourself. Good one! Ceres!!. Hope you come out of ASAP.

Just like Shakespeare in the movie “Shakespeare in Love” had a writer’s block here we are some 20% bloggers (don’t ask from where these stats came. just my assumption) who suffer from this bloggerblock-o-mania.

Guess what, I stand first there !!!!

VIVA :
These VIVA girls – Channel V Popstars really rock the show and a song by shankar mahadevan for them is as refreshing as Rehman’s first song for Roja. They are a pretty group of highly spirited youn talented girls who, I believe will stay for sometime.

I sometimes get a feeling that the ABBA of india hasn’t been born and we need a lot of push and support for the POP guys. The indie popers are really a bunch of gimmickers who belives that by good marketing and by good video they can survive the show which isn’t true. So these bands are ephemeral. But there are exceptions like lucky ali and other few. Lucky ali’s songs have a clandestine beauty and are mesmerising.

But thats just isn’t enough or an ABBA of India.

Weekend Blues :

Went around on a virtual round of blogs across the globe. Personal Journals have increased exponentially and there are some real quality creative writing up there that are missing in the .com sites. Some of the TEEN sites are still the best looked at for they have a good marketability (cheap too) on the content. A teen site has had 2 lakh hits since Jan’02 , can you imagine that for your blog ?

An interesting article gave insight into the diff between a journal and a weblog. find it here.

Weekend’s back and I am gonna hide between bedsheets and listen some good quality Metallica and some harcore 60’s jazz or Dave Mathews Band. If not I always have EMINEM to save me….The real slim shady…

Desperate Haikku :
It’s gone out of hand, the spec and span in my room was lost long back and I suddenly realized it y’day. Everything is in it’s own place and shape. This weekend probably….I thought, I should clean them. And thats what the I am capable of, procastinating !!!

My boss commented that my new look of the page has a very formal look instead of setting a creative mood. Well, thats a good cue for me. Thinking
wrote a haikku on the way to my office, actually it should have been on my way back . Thats what you mean by a ironical haikku !!

after a tiring day
full of empty cubicles
computer and me, still
