Your Turn Challenge

I came across this post from Seth. And hence this challenge link. I have enough reasons to participate. And I have a big ball of laziness that says I should not commit to anything publicly. Let me see. I am giving myself a day to decide. Maybe I’ll convince myself that I can actually publish everyday for at least 7 days in my life. It is my turn to challenge myself....

Hello World!

I’ve been blogging on and off at various sites including wordpress and blogger. I’ve also tried consolidating a bunch of them a bunch of times.
