Welcome to my computer blog

Hi ALL:

I am hoping to use this blog as a place to post everything that I learn about computers on a daily basis.

FAQ:

Q:How will this be any different from the millions of websites that are already serving this purpose ?
A: True, there are numerous locations on the web where you can get the same (and definitely more detailed) information. But please remember: this is a personal journal. There is a thought process attached to how we go from one post to the next. There will be a flow which will be something I experience. In that sense, it will be different. This blog will not stand rooted to a specific technology platform or a specific paradigm. We will learn about all things that are even remotely related to computers.

Q: Why write a blog when I could have referred books, journals, magazines, e-zines etc ?
A: I have observed that writing about something makes you explore it a little more than if you just read about it. This is especially true if you were to write something in the public domain because then you would try to make sure that what you are writing is factually correct and not just an impression that you gained while reading about it. Furthermore, like I have stressed before, this is my blog, my opinion piece. No article or post on this blog will be complete without stating my opinion on that subject.

So, there. We have the basic ingredients in place to start learning. I am still learning. So there will be some errors/inaccuracies in some of these posts which I will try and correct as and when I come to know of them. So, please pardon those errors and keep your comments coming so I can learn more.

Thanks and keep participating !!!
