On Asides

For those of you who visit my site to read the posts (unlike the few that read this blog off feed readers), you might be wondering what those posts with small fonts enclosed in blue boxes were. Well, just to clear the air, it is a feature of Wordpress's K2 theme that allows one to categorize posts into 'Asides'. These posts are just meant to be something of a nudge and a whisper to my dear reader, of some nice links that I found on the net, or a line or two about the state of affairs in my personal life, or some half baked comments I may have on some earth changing issue for which I cannot possibly write a full-blown post.

Initially I thought of disabling comments, but decided against it, as it goes against the very basic fabric of this blog - if it was ever founded on a fabric, that is. Also I wont have titles for these posts (even though I might consider for some posts in the future), so dear feed readers, if you see the first line of a post appear as the title, you know you are staring at an Asides post.

That's enough gyaan for the day. For those of you wondering how to make your Wordpress blog have an inline aside with the new K2 theme, drop me a line. I might make a post on it. :)

To a Permanent Home

Finally it comes to this. The long nomadic journey culminating in what is now surely, a permanent abode for The Piker. Welcome to my humble webshite(sic). For those who are new here and want to know more please click on the About tab on this page, read that, and if you liked it, get back to reading this post. And if you liked this post you could also subscribe to my feed as well as browse through my Archives and Creative Junk tabs (if you have ample time to kill, that is). For those loyalists, first finish reading this post and then go ahead and read the About section. It is different from the About tab in my old blog.
