India…From the eyes of a Non Resident Insider

The New AmreekanDesi

Here’s announcing the launch of amreekandesi.com. Yes we have moved!!

So i was thinking of getting my own domain, and it finally happened this weekend. Still setting up, but looks like the basics work fine already. Please do visit, and send me a note if you find some functionality broken.

I promise you this…i have many ideas for this site. It will take its due course in getting there, and your support is crucial.

Please update your favorites, blogroll links, feed links etc.

Please also tell your colleagues/neighbors to come read amreekandesi.com ;)

To Be Or Not To Be

I am considering going Big…getting my own website and doing a whole lot of fancy stuff with it. Just wanted your take on this…yes yes you reader..i am talking to you there.

What do you think?

Would be very interested in hearing from people who have made a similar switch from WordPress to their own blog. People who didn’t make the switch? Would i lose everything (my readers, my pagerank(!?) etc)?

Any tips?

Any recommended hosting services?

Above all, would you still read the blog? Visit more often? ;)

Keepin It Real

Dear Readers,

Subject: I am not Dead

This is for you the millions of you crazy people who read this blog and appreciate my writing, and adore me and dream about me and want to build temples for me and have come to expect so much of me. I have not been able to keep up the professionalism that this job requires, and have not been able to write as often as you (and I) would have liked to.

You see, i am in Love. This blog’s got competition.

But yea, i will keep trying to sneak in a few minutes here and a few minutes there to create my masterpieces. So don’t you worry, main hoon na.

So come on in, take a seat. Here have some tea. Some gulab jamuns? Oh..they’re fat free. Don’t you worry. There…thats more like it.

Yours Sincerely Humble Pathetic Lazy-Ass Servant,
Um Reekin Dizzy
