Let us introduce ourselves to the Indiblogger community
Hi Bloggers .It would be great if we introduce ourselves here so that people may come to know who we are,where we are from and our interests.So let me start :
Iam Mohammad Arshad living in Chennai ; an engineering student ; love to learn - whatever topic it is - i love learning through the internet - my other interests involve SEO [although not a pro ] , blogging and web designing [i love doing things related to javascript - especially the frameworks].Thank you :)
Hope you would tell me about you too .I hope Renie makes this post sticky so that people may just visit this thread and know more about everyone .
Reason: spelling
Arshad - great idea.
I'm Renie, from Nagercoil but have spent the last 12 years in Chennai. A Zoology grad, I'm now a web architect / entrepreneur and the founder of IndiBlogger.in. Needless to say my present role does not require the dissection of frogs. 
I love photography, although I can never find the time for it. I love astronomy, and make sure I spend a few hours with my telescope everytime I go back home. I love aquarium fish - especially the more aggressive varieties of Cichlids. And I love Music, everything from Dire Straits to Jewel to Iron Maiden.
wow .. interesting Renie .How come a zoology grad then becoming a pro in web ? Any inspirations ?
Hi !!! I'm a home maker & a full time Mom to my sweet son Umar & enjoy every moment of motherhood. I love reading & writing various blogs. Your Comments will encourage my blog to become more user friendly. http://parentingworkshop.blogspot.com Do leave ur footprints by posting comments
It was more of de-inspiration - I started losing interest in Zoology the moment I started studying it!
Hey Renie,
Thats so true... you never get to know things until you start studying them...
I am Yogesh from Bangalore working as a software engineer and have taken to blogging since April,07. I also love to read novels. Among my favourite novels are "Atlas Shrugged", "FountainHead","Shantaram" and lot of John Grisham's as well.
Arshad, it is a good initiative by you. We can truly make a small circle here, who will keep chatting, discussing and informing each other about our posts on our blogs. We can do goood commenting. Lets start with a small cricle and if it seems good, then lets invite our close friends to this circle and thus grow our circle.. Lets see how big it becomes..
I hope all the other people who have replied to this thread will like this idea and actively participate..
more about you is here!

@Adarsh,
have you read One by Richard Bach?
I would recommend Illusions by Richard Bach.
Getting back to the main topic, great initiative ...
Here goes me ...
I am person with no roots. Father was in Airforce so had edication all over India. Started education in Bangalore, then Madras (as it was called then), Bareili, Gwalior. Finally settled in Bangalore - with a brief break for higher education at IIT< kanpur. And since I am in Bangalore for the past many years this is my home now. I love to read and blog. I do not have one favourite author though. I read them all. Lately I have become partial to Taleb (Fooled by Randomness and The Black Swan).
When I am not reading or blogging or listening to my wife and two boys, I work at a company called AK Aerotek. We design, develop an verify aerospace related software.
I am 43 going on 44 (in a months time). Would love to know if there is someone older on this forum.
@Hashir - Yes, I have read One. I also liked Bridge Across Forever, and Illusions!
@Amitabh - Nice to see many Bach readers here.
You might say we have bach-to-bach Bach lovers here,, ;-)
I am a Bach fan! Have read his Illusions, Jonathan Livingstone Seagull, Bridge Across Forever, One, A Gift of Wings.
When I am not writing, I am reading, taking pictures, travelling, working as an HR professional, being a mother to my 9 year old daughter, a friend and wife to my husband and well a hell lot of things. I am a gypsy, on the move every one to two years, changing destinations and places, living many lives in this one. Been there, done that does not satisfy. Never quite will. Do visit my blogs! I am hopeful you will find something to hold you by! http://sandsinmyfist.blogspot.com and http://sandy-senseofsight.blogspot.com
