A New Wave

To be idle at home after completing degree,waiting for a call letter from a company I was placed an year ago ,I found to be a very hard thing.With nothing but my blog to spend my time with,I found my hobby could earn me cahs as well.This was possible by Bloggerwave.com .
Bloggerwave is one such venture that aims to connect the advertisers who tend to find a platform for advertising their products and bloggers who can boast of one such platform in the form of their blogs..This is a mutuallly benefitting proposal where the advertisers get a good exposure to their products and bloggers can earn cash for their posts.
This site requires the bloggers to register their blogs ,wherein they get a mail of confirmation if their blog is approved.Bloggerwave is a pretty fast process where I got an approval within a day.Bloggerwave is one great chance for bloggers to make money with their blog.
Make money ...its easy now.

The window seat...

Take me to any place in the world-anyway by train,bus,car,ship,submarine,aeroplane etc....one thing I would demand is a window seat i.e a seat adjacent to the window during travel.I dont have any idea why but I am becoming obsessed with the window seat of late.Kids ofcourse love the window seat but to term myselves,a 21 year old as a kid is too much even though its my blog.
Window seats offer a never ending list of comforts in travel.The burst of air that constantly you get across your face when you gaze out,once in a life time glimpses of scenery across the road side,occasional drizzles that wake you up when you feel drowsy and the joy of reading the signboards along the road and to share this piece of information with others with a tone as if you had visited these places already cannot be explained but has to be experienced in person.You are the first one to open your eyes to the golden rays of sunrise and also the first one to hit the dreams ,dozing off with the cool breeze.
I experienced all this in our recent tour to Kerala.In addition to all the above there are other comforts as well.For a person like me who has never used a comb in life ,the wind is the natural hairstylist and it suits me the best.Also I developed a good timepass there during the long road trips by bus.It may sound stupid but try it and ull understand that its not.Waving hands to strangers along side the road is what I am talking about.Its not just the hands ,it involves the entire body...a smiling face and a curious expression in eyes admiring the beauty of the land as a guest are needed to get back the gesture from the people along side the road.In Kerala my hit ratio was almost 100% ,I got back whatever I delivered.I had made quite a few interesting observations as well.Beautiful girls,women and children return the gesture very happily waving their hands with delight ,welcoming with a broad smile.But its the men who never attempt to do it.None of the men I waved to ,waved back at me.I wonder if I look like a person who has come all the way from Tamil Nadu to steal their goats or set their fields on fire.Their expressions said so,either a stare, a frown or an angry look.
I may sound silly ,but try it .You will know how nice it is to be greeted by someone who has never seen you before or for that matter youll never see again.But everything has its limitations.Jumping all over the place and scaring people or staring at women like a villager staring at a candy shop must be avoided.Be decent ,enjoy the experience.

A few jokes

I found a few jokes to be very interesting...

A couple is lying in bed. The man says, "I am going to make you the happiest woman in the world."
The woman replies, "I'll miss you..."


Isnt this the state of many couples in the world?Are people living in a real happy married life or is it a mere fear for the society that keeps them together?

Q: What do you call an intelligent, good looking, sensitive man?
A: A rumor
I understand that all men will do agree to this.Arent men considered fools and isnt is a common feeling among women that men are inferior in terms of intelligence?

Q: Why do little boys whine?
A: They are practicing to be men.
As a child you always tend to imitate your parents,heroes,inspirations,teachers etc.We were monkeys once and monkeys are best at imitating ..so it obviously shows.

Q: What does it mean when a man is in your bed gasping for breath and calling your name?
A: You did not hold the pillow down long enough.
Once again a state of unrest in marriage.

And this one...ppl dont get offended ..
Q: Why do men whistle when they are sitting on the toilet?
A: It helps them remember which end they need to wipe.
I found this to be damn hilarious.Could not stop laughing when I actually imagined the visual.You know I am such a person in whose mind a visual flashes everytime I hear a joke or read a story.

A place to advertise

SocialSpark.com has now grown out to be a leading website where bloggers and advertisers meet.I am a proud blogger in this ever growing page that proves and promises to be the destination for all those souls that seek to advertise their products online through honest and neutral comments generated by bloggers worldwide.
Social spark is developing into a hub of numerous advertisers and it would be a great experience to blog about the newest things in town.It has been a very pleasant experience here.What can make this more pleasant is the widening of the product and advertiser arena.The advertisers and products now seem to be limited to particular regions.Regions in the sense countries of USA ,UK etc.Though these products have universal appeal there seem to be less advertisers from Asian countries.The Asian countries like India ,China,Japan,Taiwan, Phillipines etc which boast to have the largest consumer base considering the huge population now seem to have caught on the blogging revolution as well with numerous bloggers on prowl.Advertisers based on these regions would be very fruitful.These regions boast of many indigenous products in electronics,software,IT,BPO,consumer goods,food items,medicines,fitness,health products,automobile,research,dress material,cosmetics,herbs,leather,spices,books,films,serials,advertisements,channels,starts ,movies etc.
With the upliftment of middle class in these countries the buying power of people has gone up and so is their quest to look up for ads and produsts online.So Social spark may look out for advertisers from these regions and product pool.

News Fatigue

This term was in news recently.Even before I read what it is I was sure it has got to do something with youngsters and I was sure.It says that young adults who seem to have been inundated by facts and updates from the numerous media options like the emails ,news channels,mobile messages,dailies and also rumours and gossips seem to have troubles in accessing in depth stories.
This I think is a very common problem among us. Atleast I am happy that am not one of the victims,I am now seeing many who seemed to have fallen prey.Having spent some time with many of my friends in the recent past I bet atleast 50% of then have this problem.No one with whom I have watched a news channel seemed to be interested in a news item after it is broadcast in the flash or as a headline.All seem to switch between headlines in different channels with the press of a remote.
So is the case with the sms messages.The first line for most of them is enough to make them disinterested.The message then rests in trash.Ages are gone when we used to see folded papers read over and over again.This trend is catching up on the media too with agencies fuelling research to identify trends which may attract the younger generation.

In Plain Sight

USA Network's new original series In Plain Sight promises to be the hit of the season with its highly interesting characters and cast.The story which revolves around a smart and sexy U.S Marshall with secretive jobs Mary ,her very talented partner with great intelligence Mann,her boyfriend Raphael,her boss Stan,her mother Jinx,Mary's younger sister Brandi and a detective Bobby is sure to cause a stir among the viewers.I was really fortunate to get to view a trailer and read the character profiles of USA Network's new original series In Plain Sight.

I should admit the fact that apart from looks the power and force of Mary Shannon seemed to attract me the most.The whole series seems to have been spun around this lady who is beckoned with lots of responsibilities and expectations.Also the character which is deemed to be multifaceted with roles of a mother,body guard,friend,councellor etc seems to be a perfect choice for me.
This show and its characters have everything t offer to all members in a family.My mother was more excited than me. I am really looking forward to this great series and of course to my favorite character of Mary.The show is to aired from June 1st.

Fun at work

Qantas is an airline company based in Australia. After every flight, Qantas pilots fill out a form called a problem sheet,which conveys to the mechanics, problems encountered with the aircraft during the flight that need repair or correction. The engineers read and correct the problem, and then respond in writing on the lower half of the form what remedial action was taken, and the pilot reviews the sheets before the next flight. Of course, the ground crew and engineers have a sense of humour too. So, here are some actual logged maintenance complaints and problems as submitted by Qantas pilots and the solutions recorded by maintenance engineers.
(By the way, Qantas is the only major airline that has never had an accident.)
