Yes, I am trying to learn online Journalism. I am looking for a few blogs for my feed reader. Do you have any suggestions ? Do you know any part time courses ?

As of now, I have added copyblogger.com and Online Journalism Blog to my feed reader. But I need a few more good blogs. If you know any good blog about online journalism, or bogs of Journalists, please drop me a comment.

Personal blogs of Journalists, will be a good set for reading right ? My blogging these days, is more about reading blogs. Even though I am not posting enough, I am reading a lot of blogs these days. Posting should eventually pick up.

I am not a theme designer. So, when I say Malayalam Wordpress Themes, its not a new design that I am creating. But, I am trying to modify Wordpress themes to add little Malayalam to it . I am testing this on my dummy wordpress installation where I play with themes. I should install a blog just for Malayalam Wordpress Blogging.

Malayalam blogging community seems to have Ignored Wordpress almost completely.I should try to bring at least some of them to Wordpress platform ( let them bring the rest right ? ).

The reason for Malayalam Bloggers being attracted to Blogger, is the “Transliteration” feature it has. I do not know how to enable this feature for Wordpress. But, there should be some solution . I should find someone who is good with PHP who can make a plugin ( may be ? ) . Please leave a comment if you are someone, or if you know someone.

I need to make a “to do list” of things that I am going to do. Planning makes things easy right ? hmm well planning alone won’t make things easy. Don’t you think so ?

Do you remember this post ? if not, read it first, and then, read on and Enjoy !! 1

Grand Theft Auto(rickshaw) from Balu’s Blog

I was in banglore for nearly 6 months and what I hate the most there, is the Auto drivers and the stuff they do. I have no words to explain how bad they behave and do business. However, Balu has a different and interesting way of explaining it.

Here is what I like the most about this post.

1> Don the autodriver
Me: Boss, Jayanagar jaoge?
Auto: Yes, 60
Me: Meter
Auto: 60
Me: Meter
Auto: (silence.. take a drag from his beedi.)
(For a second I thought I was in a Rajanikanth movie so I move off before he starts maroing dialogues)

Conclusions: Don ko pakadna mushkil hi nahin namumkin hai!

I am sure, you are going to enjoy reading more of it !!

PS: OMG !! this is called coincidence … I heard that punch line from Don ( my friend was playing it on his mobile ) right when I was copying this from Balu’s blog…. good start for this series….

Simple and Sweet !!

Submit your blog here and get blogrolled !!!

How to add ? Just drop me a comment here …

Being a blogger is not that easy these days, because if you want a few people to read and comment on what you write, you need to do well because, the blogs are growing in fast in number.
As much as you want others to read what you want and comment there, others also want you to do so.
Blogging has evolved in to a new way of social networking and sharing of information and at this point, an important thing that we should learn, is to communicate with other bloggers around the globe and find out who thinks and writes in the way we do or in a way that is of our interest. Its not easy to keep going back all those blogs and check for updates but you can make all those updates come to you. !!

google reader is the best way to do it. So lets get in to the point. What is google reader ?
