What the heck!!! It's gonna be almost an year and I've not put up a post on my blog even once :(
This "starting a blog" thingy has always been in my mind - thanks to the hundreds of blogs I go through and a equally good no. of mentions by my friends.
And then came the idea of making money out of a blog. Gosh! That was a great idea! Who doesn't like to make some quick bucks on the trot, 'cos all you've got to do is place your backside firmly on a seat in front of the computer and type away - and Lo! You've got your coin box tinkling...
Sigh!!! If it was only so easy. Some things were conveniently forgotten.
First, it's not that easy to "place your backside firmly on a seat in front of the computer and type away" - I am quite lazy. Even if I manage to sit down to type, three keystrokes down the line, my mind just goes blank. What next? What was the topic, theme I was thinking about? Everything gone.
Next is that "coin box tinkling" matter. That does not happen to the best of writers for the simple reason - readership/viewership. In other words, the number of hits your blog gets. There are some other stuff too which factor in raking in the moola, of which I am blissfully ignorant.
Today however, I have made up my mind to start posting stuff. Anything and everything that would come up in my mind. And I hope to continue to do it...
