My Five Essential iPad Apps

I have mentioned loving the iPad in an earlier post. In this post, I will list and describe in specific the iPad apps that I am addicted enough to turn to everyday…because after all any Apple product is ultimately about the apps, right? So, here we go: iBooks: I’m in love with the design of this app.…

My new Early Birthday Gift…

…is the Apple iPad. Woohoo!! I bought it when I went to the United States in May on work, and I can’t believe I have managed to keep this quiet on my blog for so long. Well, I had my reasons to keep it quiet. I wanted to take my time with it and to…

Answering a Blog Customization Question

Today, Su asked a couple of questions on my blog customization: You have customized your WordPress blog with some pretty cool and funky features—the background, etc. from TCBOTB. I am relatively new to WordPress and can’t seem to figure out how to incorporate the background or buttons into my blog. Can you advise me on…

Lovely New Wallpapers

Recently happened to stumble upon an art site that had some wonderful imagery that folks can use on blogs or as wallpapers (if you are not into blogging).

Blog Beautification Project Complete

For the past couple of months, I have been waffling over a change in the look of my blog. While I loved my old theme (Pressrow by Chris Pearson), it was definitely time for an upgrade. It is difficult to explain, but I think when the content of my blog has evolved from a largely…

Fooling Around with WordPress Themes

Since I started blogging on WordPress, I have taken full advantage of the various themes they have on offer. I started off with Thirteen – a lovely green theme, before moving on to the very popular Misty Look and Pressrow themes. Three themes in three years! But, change is good, right. And, I love how…

Why do I blog? A survey

Ms Mazolla at State of Denmark is conducting a meme, where bloggers answer a few questions about their attitudes and motivations. I am doing this survey almost a month later, and so it’s probably not useful to her. However, since, I enjoyed reading other people’s survey responses, I thought I would participate too. How long…
