A discussion in comments thread in Ashish’s blog set me thinking that I am not posting best of my content here on Visceral Observations since two months. I decided to post an update about my current blogging subjects.
Go ahead and feel free to give me feedback on my blog posts and interviews. If there are any tips for managing several active blogs they are welcome: 🙂

Hail Our Ragpickers, Save Them!
Reduce, Reuse, and Recycle are 3 Rs for energy conservation and environment. After emphasizing so much on reducing, reusing, and recycling in my last few posts at Visceral Observations, I decided to take a stock of recycling scenario in India. I am shocked!US and UK have active recycling centers,…

So you finally managed the //engtech RSS Digest! 😀
A further suggestion would be posting this same thing over on your Blogger blog as an aggregator of all your blogging endeavours. 🙂
Yes Ashish, I plan to do that…but I am wondering how to create new page at blogger. I want the front page to always have details about my blogs.
Also, did you see the template I changed for the blogger blog?
uhmmm developing in to a serious blogger !! have to learn from u 🙂
Poonam: No pages on blogger. If you need pages, hop over to wordpress or livejournal. You might consider giving Vox [www.vox.com] a try. Vox and WordPress are currently the best out there. 🙂
Yup, I like the new theme. Looks professional.
wow…so many posts on SO many blogs? I really admire you girl. I would be happy if I could write so many posts even in a month’s time. 🙂
@Dinsan: It seems I was always a serious blogger. Ashish keeps saying I should keep one blog for fun. 😦
How to do that?
@Ashish: I thought so as could not find any option to create new page. Is livejournal free. I never knew there was something like vox. Thanks!
You know what I want on my blogger blog is to keep the information about all three blogs on the first page and subsequently post all the digests from each blog. How to? Any better idea?
@Ruhi: Nahi yaar, I have less blogs than you and you already post more regularly than me. But I am glad to have found you. Where in Calcutta you lived? You received my email?
@Poonam,
I did receive your email and you should get my answers tonight (CST) 🙂 I used to stay in South Calcutta, near Bhowanipur. Are you familiar with that area?
And I definitely don’t post more regularly than you…all your blogs have quality posts. The CFA blog just has a couple of lines stating what I studied. My personal blog is all about my ranting. My job blog- It’s not been updated since AGES. 😛
came here thru talkingtails..nice wat a RSS collection :)gr8 work
@Ruhi: Nah, I am not very familiar, but I know about it. My visits to Calcutta were restricted to College street, shopping for garments, going to Howrah to catch trains to Delhi and to camp at various KVs (Barrackpore, Fort William, blah blah) for regional level (east zone) competitions.
And you really flatter me. But coming from you, makes me happy. 🙂
@dreamcatcher: Welcome to Visceral Observations! Glad you like it but which ones seemed better to you? 🙂
All listed services are free. LiveJournal offers pages. Not sure if Vox does but Vox is 200% cooler than LJ. 😀
I’d go with a wordpress.com blog. I mean you could set a page as the home page and the blog as a secondary page where you could post your weekly digests. Clean and simple. 😀
Ragpcikkers, jai hind a really gr8 initiatives….
Thanks for those links. I enjoyed reading those blogger interviews.
@Ashish, Ok! But no inclination to open another blog. 😦 will have to workaround with blogger. What is this talk of blogger not allowing comments from anyone otehr than google account holders? Was it not there since long time ago?
@Dream catcher: yes, rag pickers is a issue close to my heart. But I am only a contributor in Jai Hind Blog. There are several other contribuors on this blog.
@Thejesh GN: Welcome to Visceral Observations!
I am glad you enjoyed reading blogger interviews. You have a nice blog yourself. 🙂
Poonam: Turn Anonymous commenting “ON” in your Dashboard. Blogger by default disables that. Also remember to turn on Captcha otherwise you’ll be spaaaamy! 😛
@Ashish, I turned anonymous commenting on, but where is Captcha? I could not find it. 😦
very interesting, but I don’t agree with you
Idetrorce
Poonam: Hi, I could not understand what was interesting and what you didn’t agree to. Could you please explain, if you can?
