Moved to arvindtm.com

Moved to arvindtm.com

I was on Google’s Blogger platform for more than three years. Out of curiosity, I was checking out Wordpress other day. And then I thought let me create some test blog. You know, just to get a look and feel experience of an alternative blogger. As I discovered more and more of wordpress, deeper I sunk and I am not going cry for Blogger’s help.

If I have to tell a commoner how it feels to be on blogger Vs Wordpress, this is how I will describe.

When you are on blogger, you are given a piece of land (Free Hosting space), but on one condition. When you construct the house, it will go by their design. You can move your hands, but your hands are still roped.

When you are on wordpress, things are slightly different. You will pay for buying the land. Inexpensive though. But YOU stack the bricks, YOU have a say whether the entrance should face south or North, or you need glassed window, etc. and build a very rich house. Truly YOUR dream home.

How do you do ?!


We friends met at a coffee shop recently. The conversation went on something like this...
All of it. Filled with cholesterol. We ate Dark Chocolate and Apple Pie :)

What makes a read interesting ?

I had to share this little post from my favorite Scott Adam's Blog. He Wrote and I pasted here...


"The hardest part about writing is capturing your own inner thoughts. For example, if I ask you to tell me something funny or frustrating about your job, you'd give me tales of coworkers eating your food from the break room fridge, or tell me your boss is incompetent. But those aren't thoughts, just observations. We seem to store memories in terms of actions and some broad emotions, but not thoughts. And it is the thoughts you generally don't voice that make writing interesting."

I get into this split whenever I want to post. What makes a read interesting ? An opinion, a thought, an observation, a bare fact....!?

Did you see my mobile ?

Am quite forgetful these days. Missing birthdays, day of the week, misplacing keys, rushing to meeting at last minutes are quite common. Not that I was doing better earlier, but things have worsened in past few months. I am beginning to think if am contracting Alzheimer. But a sigh of relief after reading the warning signs of Alzheimer's.
I thought I found a good excuse but no, I am still normal, it's just a age-related memory lapse.
Did you say something ??

My Dream car for the Blind

I met two boys from Tamilnadu. They gave me a ride to MG road in their self-designed car. On the way I kept thinking how they could drive on the road. Because that car did not have a transparent glass pane in the front.

Bizarre ? This is the dream I woke up with this morning. Just sat down to put that car on the paper. I later figured out that such a car could actually be used by blind people. Heights ?

MB and Mbps confusion



For those looking for answers to MB and Mbps confusion, I created this graphic. In fact I had another post sometime back.
Do you realise...that my fingers are itching and getting desperate to put my Graphic tablet to some good use. Need fresh ideas for illustrations.
