I am some sort of a pioneer in making money online my friends circle. Initially I used to persuade my friends to make money online, but these days I am persuading them to start blogging. So far I have succeeded in converting one to blogging religion but he is not actually blogging for the right reasons. Ahh Well! The other managed to get a site, hopefully soon he will be a convert.

Since in the past year that I have started blogging, it has become some sort of a addiction, a private place in the public domain to shout about anything and everything. Blogging is such a great experience that….eh? My Firefox Spell check says blogging is not even a word!

Stray dogs need to be protected, for the better of poor bike riders like me.

You should probably know by now that I am not a biker as such. Bikes for me are just point A to B transport hardware. Yesterday me and my friend were going out shopping small time when a stupid stray dog jumped into the wheels of the bike and me took off much like Superman to the road and in the process scratching my left hand pretty badly and my legs my friend has 2 brake light sized scratches on his knees

Yesterday night at about approx 2100 hrs IST I realized why Eve tasted the forbidden Apple after all! Why? How? What and all those answers coming right up! I reached back in Cochin yesterday night after visiting my School – Rani Public School in Vadakara, Calicut. I finally had to chance to collect some important documents after 3 years of passing out.

So, whats this got to do with Eve and the forbidden Apple? Cochin to Vadakara is about 250 Kms or 155 miles. I was told that the riding my bike all the way totally stupid according to most of my friends considering the state of roads in Kerala. Here is what I travelled the distance in:

Usually the New Year for me meant getting drunk and partying out on the roads with friends doing things that are usually illegal and totally stupid. This year I chose to do something different and try slide into the new year than try to run head on into it with a bottle of Vodka!

A lot of people who have spent the last week of a year in Cochin will agree with me that it is the best place to have a smashing Christmas and a New Year. I know a lot of people who want to have some real fun (legal and illegal ) come from places like Banglore and other South Indian cities.

Its the holiday week, I expect the traffic to dip on almost all the blogs and online shopping and even offline shopping to pick as CNN reports that a chunk of US citizens are not done with the X’Mas shopping yet!

And as for this blog and me, I might get back to regular blogging if I can call it regular in any way possible this weekend or so once I am through with the exams on the 29th. So far its pretty good except for the mathematics which I am hopeless with the only consolation of “Better Luck next time!”. The others were much to my surprise pretty easy. Now all I hope is that the examiner does not correct my papers thinking about his ex-girlfriend who ruined his life!

King Nomar, my good Internet friend and my first Internet money making friend went low profile after he sold his blog. I am sure he must have got some nice change since it was bought by iEntry. The very same iEntry who bought CashQuests for $15,000 (I think) recently and are in the perfect process of killing it. They have not even approved my comments on that blog yet. I sometimes feel sorry for these blogs which are rarely updated by the new owners and end up in a slow death.

This is another of those mails I keep getting everyday. This one actually portrays the funny side of Indian society. Keep smiling and have a smashing weekend!

The problem of reading things too literally and reading between the lines?

Only if we could reach it!

So close together, you bet!

Title says it why I have not been blogging, not chatting with you people on Yahoo, MSN and even Orkut for that matter. I have been am really busy trying to figure out the various protocols like TCP/IP, figuring out who a System Analyst is and learning about binary trees (nope, not those normal green trees ).

As a result, all my blogging activities have been stalled till the end of this month. While all other bloggers who go on a break have photos to show you, I can only show you pics of my IGNOU’s BCA (Bachelors in Computer Application)textbooks

Today I found myself laughing my heads off with this email I got. Its a questionnaire about common “myths” on good health. A must read for anyone concerned about their health!. Which is your favorite tip?

HEALTH- QUESTION & ANSWER SESSION

Q: I’ve heard that cardiovascular exercise can prolong life; is this true?

A: Your heart is only good for so many beats, and that’s it… don’t waste them on exercise. Everything wears out eventually. Speeding up your heart will not make you live longer; that’s like saying you can extend the life of your car by driving it faster. Want to live longer? Take a nap.

While you have nothing apart to do online, I usually engage myself in my sites stats which usually make no sense like our stock markets One set of stats I always keep an eye out for is my search engine keyword traffic. One one side, its a good SEO practice to write information on stuff people are looking for, on the other hand its a sneaking up into what people use to find my site

I have this really nice plugin called Search Meter for WordPress which shows you what people are searching for in your wordpress blog. I find it amusing to see what people search for in my site. Here is a screenshot of one of the best parts:
