This is inter­est­ing. What will they think of next?

bLo­gout. For once, Suman comes up with an inter­est­ing word :)

So instead of sit­ting in a cof­fee shop or a Koshy’s, we’ve decided to go away some­where for the next blog meet. And appro­pri­ately, the meet will be called bLo­gout (trade­mark Suman!).

At the the­atres: Watched Star Wars, Episode III (Revenge of the Sith) and I must say that I found it bet­ter than the last install­ment (Attack of the Clones). Though I’m not a Star Wars fanatic, I do admire George Lucas for dream­ing up such an immense saga (and that too, not in order!). I […]

He came on stage in his trade­mark black shades and black t-shirt. He took his gui­tar at 7.00 pm and only stopped at 10.00 pm after 3 hours […]

It turned out to be quite a marathon meet after all. 19 20 blog­gers attended and we had a nearly 100% atten­dance! There were 2 of wom­ankind and 18 of mankind. Hmmm.
