This would be my first actual post to the blog, and frankly I'm feeling a bit uneasy. First its been a long time since I wrote, wrote this way, so please excuse the rust. Secondly, its a bit unnerving to know that my blog is public, where anyone and everyone can read it. Ofcourse, in this is new "internet age" privacy has been taking a backseat, especially with social networking sites like mySpace and orkut attracting people of all ages. In spite of these privacy concerns, I think I really need to overcome my inhibitions and jump onto the bandwagon.
On the other hand, sometimes I don't understand why I have these concerns. After all blogging isn't just about revealing your personal self, its also about sharing thoughts and information, expressing opinions, publishing critiques or even sharing a joke or two. That said, I would classify myself as more of an escribitionist, focusing on personal experiences and reflection rather than reporting or political commentary.
Using this post as a launch pad for further, hopefully more interesting, posts, here's something for you

So keep visiting and keep smiling.

welcome to blogosphere !
About the blog being public and too revealing .. well, i think that sharing feelings/ideas/thoughts with others will definitely be fruitful in some way or the other! It neednt always be misused. Ofcourse, one needs to know what to reveal and how much, but if thats taken care of .. these sharing of thoughts will create new ones and might even help solve the unnerving earlier ones!!!
