6th June 2008 . Last year , on this very day I decided to conduct an experiment . Bored of chatting and social networking , I decided to experiment with the thing called blogging . At that time , I didn’t knew if I will be really committed to my blog , or will it be gone too , like all other things which fail to interest me after a couple of days .

I am more than surprised that its been one year and I am still dedicated to  blogging . So much so , that I have transferred my blog from wordpress.com to my own domain . And now I have all the bases covered . Its Home Run . One year in running

And thanks to everyone from blogosphere who has helped to make this journey so wonderful , everyone on my blogroll , my reader and all those who have visited my blog even once (except all the bots who look so keen to comment on each and every post of mine  ) ….

The thing is that I really liked each and every moment of this journey . Today when I reflect back to my posts , it feels really great to see all the memories bundled up at one place … a place from everyone can sneek into my world …. my magical world .

HAPPY BIRTHDAY Magical Me

We all know what happened in Mumbai a few days back ….. the terror attack …. destruction caused …. loss of lives …… All of us are angry over this incident and are echoing a single voice to wipe down terrorism from the face of the planet ….. and to ensure the measures so that nothing of this sort happens again…..

Everybody is awake now ….. everyone wants to participate in some sort in the fight against terror ….. “The Rebuild India Mission” is one such step that we all need to participate in …… What this mission is all about???…….. Have a look…..

Late in the evening on the 26th of November, things seemed normal and peaceful. We all were busy with our night duty (read blogging) when all off a sudden the nation landed in dire straits. Some unknown intruders had penetrated our national territory with a motive of causing mass destruction. By the beginning of the next day, they had managed to do that and much more. Indians worldwide were left with only one thought – “enough is enough”. In the aftermath, the nation was left shattered, wounded and demoralized. We knew we had to build it all up again. We knew we had to initiate the ‘Rebuild India’ Mission – and that’s how it all started.

Step 1
Armed with a very small group of bloggers but ones with huge levels of motivation, we initiated a movement to publicize the voice of the citizen. Bloggers simply wanted to scream out their frustrations. We said we would provide them with a punching bag. Some were up with suggestions based on where things were going wrong and wanting their ideas to be heard. We said we would provide them the stage and the microphone. Gradually everyone starting from key business personalities to socialists were raising their voice. The gap between the elite and the ‘Aam Aadmi’ was erased and that’s how the ‘Rebuild India’ Article Repository was formed.

Step 2
With a huge content base in hand, we were contemplating our options when suddenly it occurred to us that these were the suggestions of bloggers. We needed the general citizens to approve these suggestions, for even a master plan fails without consensus. We got back to the drawing board and came up with a plan to separate the grain out of the chaff for public approval/disapproval.

That’s how the ‘Rebuild India’ Online Survey got going and this is where we are at the moment. At the end, we expect a full-proof case of stats and figures on how we rebuild the nation.

Step 3
This is where the game begins, as this is where everyone gets involved. We alone won’t decide what to do next, it’s the bloggers of the IndiBlogger network who need to guide and support us. In fact, you guys need to carry forward the rebuilding process, and we assure you that it’s not a small responsibility. It’s a responsibility of providing hope to over a billion Indians citizens and many more residing across shores. Tell us what to do and we would be all ears. Raise your hands in support and join us.

Let’s get together and make a difference! Let’s get together and rebuild the nation!
