Its Time for Action !!
The time has finally arrived!!. Its the Blogathon 2006 !! and this is my first post of the 24 hours long, 48 post series of Blogathon 2006. Althought I haven’t recieved any contribution; I’ll still be blogging for Charity (Save The Children, UK).
For all those who don’t know what is Blogathon let me explain it once again briefly. A Blogathon is like a Blogging Marathon. During the Blogathon, people update their websites every 30 minutes for 24 hours straight. For this, they collect sponsorships. Pledges can be a flat donation, or a certain amount for every hour the blogger manages to stay awake. I suggest you read this and this for more information. Overall (at?present) there are 370 blog participating with over 70,578.50$ Plegde
My Plans:
I haven’t prepared for Blogathon 2006 yet because some of my friends said that Blogathon was supposed to be Human Blogging (not a automated one), So I would personally publishing all the article. I have decide take a break off from my college for two reasons
1. Its the Blogathon 2006
2. I just finished my Exams yesterday.
I have planned to stay on topic as far as possible. As said by Lorrelle in her?Blogathon Tutorial I don’t want to stress myself, so I would be posting small and simple posts, my language would be pretty casual.
Comming Up:
OK, here is what you can expect from me today:
1. 8-12 Video Posts
2. 5-8 Posts about the Blogathon Itself
3. 10 Post on Topic (i.e Technology, Blogging and Money)
4. 2-3 about myself
5. 4 post which may reflect the past
6. 4 post which reflects the future
7. Not yet Planned!!
Bad News!:
For the past couple of days my blog’s comment form is refusing to accept comments. Since its Blogathon I can’t waste my time trying to fix it, So my friend Sean Hickley is on it. And I hope he?finds?a?solution?pretty soon. Until then I want all of you to hit that Contact Button at the top!!
Even my computer is filled with lots of Spywares (Courtsey: My Cousin), So I would blogging from a Live Ubuntu CD
(Thats the real Bad News for me). I am really missing my Favorite Softwares like FeedDemon, Google Talk….. But still I have managed to find work arounds for all of those in Ubuntu.
My Friends:

Syn (aka Sindhu) was willing to participate in Blogathon, but she couldn't due to her internals (Yo, Its a kinda freaky system where in points are rewards for completing assignments or something like that)Its not over:

Kindly Excuse me if I have made any typo errors because I don't have time to check those today. Hopefully you can expect some of the most boring and stupid post here today. This post was was supposed to be the long post in this whole series. I just pray to god that I won't loose my patience.
People I would Love to Thank: Menza (for Inspiring me), Matt (for Publicizing me) and finally all of you (for?being?with?me)
OK, Now Here I Go !!!
