I am two years old, today!

Today, 27 March 2010 marks my second year into this blog. I have come a long way since I published my first post. What did I write on my first post? Let me "copy and paste " here:

Out in cyberspace wonderland!!

Hi people of cyberspace. I wonder anyone is reading this. It's like striking a lottery if you stumble on this blog! So go buy yourself a lottery or two or three.

After dabbling in the internet the past 3 years, I only realized recently that there was this thingy called "Blog" and a dumb skull like me could also PUBLISH a blog of my own. Wallah!! This is an important event in my life. Never had I a chance to do new things with such confidence. There is nothing to lose if I got stuck and failed (I shouldn't use that word). No one to criticize me, getting impatient with me, or demoralize me if I get stuck. This is wonderful.

After a few days gropping around with the URL name (say, I can even quote "URL" , I think it has something to do with "urinology"!) and browsing through the "Help" desk, a most challenging thought came to my mind: Why not just write a progress report of this new adventure of mine and post it with every step of progress? This way I can get started while learning the ropes. Killing two birds with one stone!! Very clever of me.

So, let's see whether this maiden post can be posted successfully. ]

I have really come a long way! And along the way, I have also made a few friends. Overall, I have become quite an expert in blogging and everything connected with writing in blogosphere. At the moment, if you care to survey the right column of this blog, you would find that I have two blogs, one website, and two "affiliated" sites, all very active sites which I spend hours each day "maintaining" them. As for attracting "traffic" I think I am still a failure. So to all my handful supporters who tolerated my cynicism and crude language, a BIG Thank You for your moral support.

The special person I want to thank is my Sifu Chew, which I dedicate this post to him. Without Sifu Chew, my life in blogging would have been made more difficult. It is this Sifu Chew who taught me the ABC of blogging. I am forever grateful to him. By the way he has a special name, Sadhu Chew. "Sadhu" is a Pali term meaning "Excellent" which is a favourite word amongst Buddhists. Very aptly chosen too. A very big "Sadhu" to you, Sifu Chew!

Now my "audience" is global! This is the fantastic wonder of the internet. Just by sitting here, I communicate with people all over the world!

Maybe I can make a secret request to all my moral supporters to please make a comment for this post. Then I can tell the whole world that I still have friends reading my blog after these two years. So this is my secret wish. May I blow the candles now?

(By the way, this is my 632nd post.)
