Its been a long long time since I have written anything here, it almost seemed like the place was dusty… but then looking at the blog stats, I realized that I do get a decent 3 hits per day average, which is amazing considering the fact that the last post written on this blog is dated back in July. I am not sure what brought me here, back to write a post, some of the possible reasons are:
- A recent comment was made, so I got an e-mail saying so.
- Depression in life.
Evident by the song I am listening to: (This is my all time depression song)
Now playing: Led Zeppelin – Stairway To Heaven
via FoxyTunes - Getting internet access and free time together after a lot of time. (Yes, sometimes there are major internet problems in my college)
I would give a bit more weight to the second reason, owing to the fact that the song is clear evidence (:D). On brighter side of things, nothing exceptional happening in my life since July up to today. The only thing I can be proud of is the linux users’ group that I started off in campus.
This is the mailing list of the group. I know that the fact that the mailing list is a Google Group is an insult to the concept of LUG, but then that was not a decision I took, or was informed of before it was taken.
This is the way I pass my time, except for excessive doses of World of Warcraft :D. So now that I have actually overcome the initial inertia of blogging, I hope that I will continue to blog this time around, without any huge gaps in posts. The only problem is that well, my college likes me so much that they think I should study, and so they do NOT allow me internet access at random times, which is a very good thing according to me :P.

Joining any LUG seems exciting at first. But soon after you know your way well around Linux, you might find the LUG redundant and filled up with elitist snobbery. This of course is my personal opinion from the experiences at the LUGs I’ve joined/founded.
I have actually had similar advice, and so I have decided not to invest so much time on the whole thing. That just makes me one step more jobless than before :D
On the contrary, I’d suggest you spend more time there ;)
