I had a plan to start blog long back – but you did it!! – This was one of the many comments I received by mails and phone calls. Well my answer is – it’s easy to start and that I will give all guidance. But the content has to be theirs. And not just start, write a few things and then keep quiet.

Bloggers know content is important. There is also a view – that content can be anything, but it must be interesting, new and attract visitors. Many VIPs and eminent men have started blogs. The varieties are countless and increasing each hour.

In olden days we used to pester out Patti (grandma) for short stories. And she would lovingly tell a tale. Then came magazines and the culture of story telling is almost dead. Some are trying to revive it through TV channels. And people went after wisdom to Gurus. Now Gurus come to your door steps and through Internet.

Communication was oral from one man to many. Then it was through books. Then, individual communication revolution thru’ E-mails.

And now again BLOG – but the fact is - how many will read? Only if I write and enjoy the article and give stunning news and stories people will visit often. So many things have to be learnt before starting a BLOG.

Of course – the simple steps of starting, maintaining – I will mail to people who have asked. And may write here also (is it of any use if I write the steps here?)

Blogging is at least better than watching TV where I hear others talking non-sense. Here people read the non-sense I write.

Most people are bothered by those passages of Scripture they do not understand, but the passages that bother me are those I do understand.

I can give links for blogging resoruces, RSS and other tools. But a little Googling will be better way to find them.
