Ajay - On the Road called Life!

I’ve been plagued with comment posting problems for a long long time now.
Infact it wasn’t just this domain, but all domains on my VPS. It wasn’t just comment posting but posting about any form.
It didn’t throw up any errors, though users would get blank pages in firefox, or the Zero Sized Reply error.
Well I tried [...]

I upgraded PHP on my VPS to 5.2.1. Had to patch the cache.php file as it throws up errors.
I hope that the upgrade to 5.2.1 solves the commenting problems that people are facing.
If you do notice anything out of place on the blog, please do drop in a comment / email.
Thanks.

I’ve noticed and so have others about a problem while posting comments on this blog.
IE throws up a Page Cannot Displayed error and Firefox asks you to download the PHP file.
I’m still clueless as to what could be the exact problem with this and so I’ve decided to test Akismet instead of SK2 for a [...]

About a week back I created a new feed that collates five of my feeds. This was done with the help of FeedBlendr. It is a good service, but there is a lot of room for improvement. The feed work but it seemed to give a problem with Feedburner.
I decided to give Yahoo! Pipes a [...]

I’ve been pondering about a way to offer a single feed that will take into account all the different feeds that I publish.

I’ve been searching for services that offer this but will confess I’ve been largely unsuccessful. I ran across Feedblendr which aims at establishing just that.
I’ve combined the following feeds:

Main Blog Feed
Comments Feed

Inspite of the fact that my comment policy (has anyone read these?) is a little “strict”, I’ve been very liberal about comments and trackbacks on this blog.
My comments have finally risen and I’ve always believed to make it worth the while for you to comment out here.
I’ve had the DoFollow plugin for a long long [...]

The past two months has seen a lot of changes to this blog. For one, I’ve changed the look yet again and have also added and removed a few other features.
Cosmetic Changes
I got rid of the header. With the new theme, the header looked totally out of place and occupied a good amount of surface [...]

Honestly, I am a little disappointed. I’ve been running the poll for five days now, and I’ve received only 25 votes.
I thought polls were something that people loved and I did ask a relevant question. Anyway, I’m going to try my luck again and implore my 250+ readers plus the thousand or so who wander [...]

Ok, not all of them, but a great chunk of them are. Alexa recently updated their Traffic Stats page to include country information as well as reach.
Though I am an Indian Blogger, this blog has nearly 40% of its visitors coming from the USA. My server logs show me around 50%.

I am surprised though that [...]

Copyblogger has an interesting article on improving blog stickiness.
Of the four points listed the point that topped the list was “Ask”, which is something I believe in.
While this blog focuses on my life in general, it wouldn’t be successful without YOU. And what better way to ask than via polls.
I’ve signed up with PollDaddy.com [...]
