A new beginning...

Today I had enough time to spend some on creating this new weblog. Inspired by Gary and Piyush Sarode, I decided to open my mind in public. Coincedentally, last night i was watching a movie or some series "Ed TV", in it that guy Ed has signed a contract with some TV channel to allow them to live telecast his day-to-day life...and how this whole stuff turns into a nightmare for him and his family.

I was just thinking, isn't this weblog a kind of very initial stage of the same mentality? I am seeing how making personal things public is in trend nowadays, specially in the advanced countries. I will not criticize it, but would try to understand the psychological process behind that.... oh oh yes, you got it right. I have an inclination towards psychology and always try to find a rational behind each and everything happening around me, related to human behavior in particular. You won't believe that I with one of my friend Maneesh spent days in identifying and quantifying the factors affecting human behavior, and as you can imagine very soon we realized that its beyond our scope, and with that realization the modern civilization had to continue without a biggest breakthru in this field. Don't get disappointed its there in my todo list after my retirement. ;-)

Now, lets bring our focus back to the rational(s) behind the weblogging. I am trying to list a few very obvious ones first, with the course of time we'll get many more.
1. To see my name in the website.
2. Get an hit while searching in google. (though it doesn't happen currently)
3. Time pass
4. Displaying love to latest trend
5. Showing off my writing skills
6. Showing off the breadth of knowledge
7. Sharing my thoughts with known friends
8. Nobody listens to me, thatswhy I have to write it somewhere
9. Oh man its boiling inside me, better I flush it otherwise it may burst.
10. This world deserves my opinion to stay in place....

blah blah blah...
