Random Ramblings

I saw the movie Shrek Forever After. A very entertaining movie. I’ve liked the previous versions and this was just amazing.

The story is about how Shrek seems to be bored of his mundane life after marriage and misses the carefree life he lived before as an Ogre, when everyone was afraid of him and he could do anything that pleased him. He is tricked by Rumpelstiltskin into making a wish in exchange for a day from his life, and then Rumplestiltskin transports him to a magical world where Rumplestiltskin takes over the kingdom of Far Far Away and Shrek is never born, so his life never happened. Now Shrek has to win Fiona’s love again to break the contract and get his life back.

I especially loved the songs through the movie which includes One Love, Hello, For Once in my Life, among others. An awesome movie to watch on a day off.

Let me know if you like it.

This month’s the review has been delayed quite a bit. I’ve been feeling very lazy and have been procrastinating since a long time. But finally I’ve tried very hard and pushed myself to the limit and finally managed to have this post published.

So lets talk about May. I’ve been buzzing a lot last month (read this post if you’ve not heard about seededbuzz) and I’ve recently been buzzed for the first time too. Its a good method to exchange links and provide readers with other relevant articles to read.

Also you’ve probably noticed the new disclosure policy and some sponsored content recently, what can I say, I hope to make some money to keep this blog online. I’ll try to keep the posts relevant to the blog and publish honest opinions.

* PR Update
I’ve read on a few other blogs about the Google PR being updated on the 4th June and I’m glad that the PR for this blog continues to be 3. How did your blog fare in this update?

Well I don’t really have anything significant planned for this month but its best that you stay subscribed to avoid missing out on sporadic updates of great value.

Happy Blogging!

Recently I saw the movie “How to Train a Dragon”. And all I can say is that the movie is AWESOME.

The story revolves around a boy Viking, Hiccup, but unfortunately he isn’t like everyone else. In fact he is very different. He appears to be too weak so his father, who is the leader of the village, keeps him away from dragon killing. Yes, you’ve read it right dragon killing. It so happens that in this village is always attacked by dragons and the Vikings are too stubborn to move to another place so the continue to live there and fight the dragons.

When the able bodied men of the village go out to find the dragon nest and rid the village of the problem once and for all, the young vikings are undergo dragon training. In dragon training they are taught how to slay different types of dragons. Our young hero manages to befriend a dragon and tops to dragon training by learning about dragons from is dragon friend rather than using strength to fight them.

When his dad returns to the village,after they’ve failed to find the dragon nest, he is overjoyed to learn that his son has aced dragon training but when he learns that he has befriended a dragon he is really furious. They then set out to find the dragon nest with the help of the Night Fury.

Oh I’ve let myself get lost in the fantasy world and already revealed much of the movie. But I will not reveal anymore. All I can say is that the village is transformed thanks to one different boy.

You’ve really got to watch this one. Trust me, you’ll really enjoy it.

Wow! Another month has passed by so quickly. Its been nearly 4 months now that I’m hosting this blog and so far it has been a fairly good ride. The stats are looking fairly nice. The Google PR is 3, Alexa rank is 540,046. But off late I’ve been feeling a little lost. I read a post about setting a mission for your blog by Christie Kissinger. That got of me thinking, what is the mission of this blog? Thanks to this post by Tabitha I’ve been able to find the answer.

I had started this blog because I wanted to have my own domain. And also because I wanted to have complete control over my blog. Blogging here has taught me a lot about domains, wordpress, plug ins, themes, css, blog promotion etc.

The mission for this blog is to share my experiences with the world, to help people with my knowledge.

I like to share my knowledge with the world. I’ll tell you why, if I have one apple and we share it we both will have half an apple, but if I have one idea and we share it we both will still have one idea each. So although they say knowledge is power, this power increases when it is shared.

So I’ll try to focus on my mission and learn new thing that I can share with the world. Wish me luck.
