Many, if not most, of us might have gotten rejected at interviews and recruitment processes. While rejection itself is reason enough for one to brood over and blame the selection process or the employer, I had tried on such occasions to sit for a while and put myself in recruiters shoe to analyze what might [...]

I came across Erik's survey on the “the 10 Habits of Highly Annoying Bloggers” and decided to jot down few things I detest about a blog:

Blogs with black background and yellow fonts
Blogs that are both blogs and photoblogs
Blogs that would not accept an email id of the like debu at email dot com in [...]

There is an interesting quiz that would perhaps let you know if you are a Blogoholic. I thought I was one, coz even if I don't post very regularly I read a lot of blogs everyday. But it emerged that I am only a casual weblogger. “You only blog when you have nothing better to [...]

This has been the first ever Blog-Mela hosted by Null Pointer, and though the number of nominations haven't been spectacular, they haven't been discouraging either. Now that I hosted it I can empathise how difficult it is to select a handful of entries from a maze of good posts. My thanks to Melodrama, Ravages, Aadisht, [...]

An interesting but debatable point has been raised by John C. Dvorak. Dvorak feels that the so-called Blogging Revolution has bitten the dust and that Blogging can't become the future of journalism as predicted due to two reasons:
