So, here we are again. I am on my fourteenth month of blogging, moving to fifteen actually. I am ready to announce the ninth “Member Of The Month” and boy, am i here to stay! I’ve had my ups and downs, my “i’m here all the time” and “hey where am i anyway” times. But, to tell you the truth, it’s a life changing experience. You just reach out to the world and meet people. People, that under normal circumstances, you wouldn’t have the chance of meeting. People like Kim, Mike, Raju, Madhur, Rockstar Sid, Sire, Pavan, Giannou, PC and those that i more recently had the opportunity to interact and get to know like Harsh, Nihar, Tracy, Kikolani, Abhishek, Devakishor (i am really afraid that i am forgetting someone, so if i am, please drop me a line). People that are all over the globe. Yet, this little blog, with love and passion for blogging, has managed to keep them coming back. Has managed to help me keep in touch with them and even when i am missing around, they notice and worry about my absence. How magical is that? I know that my traffic reports are not high and almost a hundred visitors a day is not encouraging (especially when most of them is what i would call “hit and runners”) but still, i love engaging with all the rest that take the time to visit this blog, read what i have to say and leave a comment. So thank you all!
Focusing on this month, i really enjoyed starting the Interview series with Kim and Madhur. I really appreciate their time and effort on answering my questions. I intend on keeping this up with more bloggers all around the blogosphere. All in all it’s been a busy month. On to the MOTM now. This month we had a draw for the first place between Kim and Raju. Since the latter was declared MOTM for February, i hereby announce Kim to be “Member Of The Month”. I want to really thank everybody for coming back and commenting here. It’s an awesome experience that all of you help me have.
For the next month, i would like to announce a big project i started and will be coming out hopefully in a week or two. I am really counting on everyone’s support and feedback. So, keep on coming, as you always do!
Yay Kim! 15 months is about the age of my blog, too. It is life changing, isn’t it?
Can’t wait to hear what your new project is!
It was a draw? I wasn’t sure which one of us had the most comments … And that was a fair way to decide 😉
What an awesome post too – to mention all the people who you’ve met.
And not I’m very intrigued about your big project 🙂
@Tracy: Thanks for dropping by… Indeed it is a life changing experience…
@Kim: You both had 12 comments and this was the fair way to go. It would have been a mind puzzle if there was a third person 😉 As for the project i am still coding but this is definitely something i will be using. Keep coming back 😉
I lost it again. Phew..! There is a lot of competition for this member of month..
Waiting to learn more about your new project.
Way to go Kim. My only regret is that lately I haven’t been able to spend as much time reading and commenting on the blogs that I love. Heck, I haven’t even had the time to update some of my blogs, which can happen when you have too many.
Still, I can’t complain as long as I am still able to put food on the table and greet my family every day I reckon I am on a pretty good wicket.
Anything for you brother . My support is always with you. All the best for the future.
Well, even I am waiting for you BIG project… you rock buddy 🙂
@PC: Well all that matters is that you stick around 😉
@Sire: That’s ok man. I see what you are saying. And you are right. Greeting your family every day and putting food on the table is the most important thing.
@Madhur: Thanks again man. You and the others mean a lot…
@Pavan: Well hang in there buddy. You will hear from me soon. I don’t know how big you are going to see my project but to me it’s pretty big 😉
Sure man, will look forward to hear about you about your project. I’m sure like always its going to be great.
Best wishes.!! 🙂
Obviously its a fair way of deciding the winner 🙂 Congrats KIM!!
I am dieing to know about the new project 😀
Thanks guys for dropping by and showing your support 😉
Thanks for including me. I discovered you just 4 days back and its good to see that you remember me.
Will be arround and also hope to see you on my blog soon…
@Nihar: Well the thing is i am already subscribed to your blog and i visit often. I just haven’t commented yet because i haven’t found my self in a position to say something that will add to the value of what you are writing rather than a simple “thanks” or “very nice” message… So i stay silent 😛
