And how I re-learnt some life lessons that all kids should have known all along.
Saturday was another great, warm, sunny and calm morning. Which could only lead to one thing … books, umbrella, towels, salsa, guacamole and sunscreen lotion. On, and the sand, surf and water, of course.

Here we […]

This is […]

Well, if you all recall, there was some pretty negative publicity with payperpost.com, the blog advertising guys who pay bloggers to write about specific topics. That led me to a quick stopping of using there services.
But, on a whim, I just logged onto their website this week and see some quality changes.
For example, many […]

Just read about it … Yahoo maps India is now live and kicking!
