The Dark Knight

/ Guttu / 7 Comments

I couldn’t believe this. I think I need some sleep. Check out this picture. If you are digg user then you probably have seen this. The actual story behind this post is Digged here.

The Dark Knight

I am posting the same image here. Hope that person doesn’t mind this. Is this movie this worth?? How can a movie beat the greatest in the list. The Godfather Trilogy, The Shawshank Redemption, The Good The Bad And The Ugly are the best movies. I’ve seen all of these and they deserve to be there. It’s amazing that a film manages to go ahead of these classics.

The Good The Bad And The Ugly is my favorite movie. I just cannot give this place to any other movie. I watched this movie two years ago and it’s still the best. Then goes The Shawshank Redemption and then the Godfather Trilogy. The Trilogy is slow and gives me a headache but in the end it ends to my favorites.

If the rating continue at this rate then I’ll be reserving tickets when it comes to theaters near me. Just curious about this movie. Maybe it’s the Ledgers death causing this and\or his acting. If you are reading this and watched the movie then please rate it out of ten.

10000 Hits

/ Guttu / 3 Comments

Four days back I saw this movie. The name of the movie was 10000 B.C. The movie was ok and I had good time. But in order to make “Happy Endings” the story lost it’s charm. Would have been an ideal end for the movie. Though you always have “Happy Endings” if you take it in different perspective. (Hmmmm. I’ve started to use heavy words. Just to make the post heavy. Don’t mind them). This post is not about this movie. But about my blog.

Yesterday I achieved the first milestone. I got 10000 hits to my blog. No cheating nothing. I don’t have to tell that because it’s been six month for those hits. Anywhere else it would have been much more till now. It doesn’t make a difference to me. I’m really happy to achieve this. Just a psychological win that will make me dip deeper.

I had announced a contest on entrecard for the person who hits 9999. I knew that would happen today. Here is the screenshot of the person who was the winner. He commented as chato and is a good cartoonists I suppose.

9999 hits

The day before yesterday I was about to upgrade my blog. But my uncle came to stay at our house. I was happy but had to sleep early and shutdown PC. So was unable to upgrade. Today when I was ready to upgrade, there was some problem with server router. My site was inaccessible in some parts. So the upgrade is still in queue.

After this much hits, I’m ready to make some changes to my blog. They’ll be as and when I get lots of free time. Thanks to all the readers all around the world for reading nonsense and helping to achieve this.

Age of a Blogger

/ Guttu / 2 Comments

I’ve been blogging for five months. Actually it’s far before that. But I did it on large scale since five months. At present I’m 24. So I’m not that old. A bit young blood (These lines are written just for my personal satisfaction that I’m not old). So what’s the perfect age for blogging?? Do you have a certain age limit in your mind??

There are millions of bloggers around the world and I read many blogs. I really don’t know their ages. What I look and read is the thing they write. The entries they post. If it’s interesting I comment and give a visit again. That’s how my blogging goes. But in spite of these things I had an age limit in my mind. Like 60-70 years. No one can blog over that. But I was wrong.

On 12th July 2008 the oldest blogger died. Her name was Olive Riley. You can read about the news here and here. And do you know what was her age?? She was 108 years old. Pretty young. This gives clear idea that the bloggers and blogging does not have age limit. It is you who limit yourself. If you really wanted to blog then you would have asked for help. Zillions of sites and peoples ready to help you.

The blogger died is an inspiration for all. At least I’m inspired. I will now be posting with more passion. You can visit her blog at
World’s Oldest Blogger
or
World’s Oldest Blogger
Domain may not be working but the blogspot link works. Visit and give a tribute to her.

May her soul rest in peace..

Entrecard Reviewed

/ Guttu / 3 Comments

And at last I am writing my review on entrecard. When I started using entrecard I wrote some posts regarding this site. I don’t think those who’ll be reading my blog will be unaware of entrecard. I’ll still give links to my earlier posts about entrecard.
Entrecard – what is it??
On a high

Things changed after that. I tried entrecard for a week. I got some serious traffic and good number of pageviews. But in the end it was not at all good traffic. As I expected earlier, the traffic was temporary. Things like “u drop I follow” will just give traffic to your blog. Not the readers. And I am always looking for readers. I don’t expect comments also. I know they’ll come automatically if you read.

So after a surge of traffic with the help of both entrecard and linkrefferal, I stopped. I stopped for a week. I didn’t comment anywhere nor did I replied to the comments posted on my posts. Just remained silent and did nothing, other than trying to solve domain problems. This was to check if I’m really getting readers or it’s temporary.

The results were expected. The average number of visitors dropped. And hence the pageviews. But still happy that I got those readers in spite of doing nothing. Now that I have got a domain I need to do better. So I’ll be active everywhere. At least I’ll try to. I’ll keep entrecard widget. It’s not because of the traffic, but the readers it gave. While looking at statistics I found that there is some increase in readers. Those who bookmarked my site. This number is very less compared to traffic. But good for me. In the end entrecard is good for those who have adsense on their blogs. They’ll get good revenue. But it’s not for those without adsense.

I wrote in a comment in the second link above that I’ll not post about traffic for 10 days. Now it’s more than that. ^_^ I’ll keep updating about my blogging progress.

Keep reading nonsense and

Finally a Domain

/ Guttu / 8 Comments

Phewwwwwww…This domain thing made me go crazy for a week now. To notify all my fellow readers, whom I’ve not been responding for a week, I bought a domain. www.thinknonsense.com. So please update the bookmarks. Though you’ll be redirected to this page automatically I still suggest to update the bookmarks. To all my link exchangers also. Please update the link in your blogroll. Your link stays with me anyways.

I bought this domain on 4th July. I thought it’ll be easy task to change things and within a day or two my site will be up. But no. Very poor support from my host company Hostindia made my life difficult. To all those buying a domain, I suggest not to go for the said company. Whatever I asked I got a one or two line reply without any detailed info. They should provide support when I pay them the price they want. But they didn’t. The reply timings were also not good. Queries asked after 6pm got reply after 7am next morning. This should not happen with domain seller.

The reason I went for this was that I don’t have a credit card. And if I had I would never associate it with paypal. I have some money in my paypal and I was able to buy a domain by using send money link. The activation was quick. I got the domain running very quickly. But poor support made me go mad. Now I got a lesson and know why people go with Godaddy. Continue reading →
