New Blog

On March 20, 2006 by Anant With 1 Comments - Blogging, Formula 1, Internet, Sports, Technology, Yours Truly

I’ve started a new Blog with a Chandrahasa and Musavir, my colleagues in Applibase and F1 fanatics. The blog, Formula 1 Jam will have the 3 of us as co-authors with each of us presenting our view points and thoughts on F1. It will be heavily skewed by each of us with Chandrahasa favoring Renault and Fernando Alonso, Musavir favors McLaren and Kimi Raikonnen and me, of course the God Michael Schumacher and Ferrari.

So if you like F1, do read that blog and get a dose of 3 different perspectives :)

A guide to Anonymous Blogging

On January 7, 2006 by Anant With 3 Comments - Blogging, Computers, Internet, Technology

With all the paranoia surrounding blogging and the spate of lawsuits, arrests, cease and desist orders etc, this is a great read for those who want to blog _completely_ anonymously. This goes very far out in using relays, anonymous email accounts etc.

Extremely good read for those who want to blog but don’t want the hassle of potential lawsuits, for example when whistle-blowing on a “bad” company or when one’s educational institute is very conservative.

A technical guide to anonymous blogging – a very early draft

Edit: I know this article is very old. I had actually published this post quite a while back but somehow marked it as a private post. Recently reviewing my meagre archives, I came across it again and published it :-)

Edit 2: Thanks to Dave, a newer article has been published and is available here

I’m on WordPress 2.0

On December 27, 2005 by Anant With 0 Comments - Rambler, Technology

Wheee… I’ve like been waiting for the latest WordPress release which initially numbered 1.6 was later changed to 2.0 because it contains so many changes.

On the UI side, the blog will look about the same. It’s the backend, the admin console/panel which is quite a bit revamped! :-)

So… Anyways, since you can read this, obviously the famous 5 minute install of WordPress worked beautifully and the site is not broke :-D
PS. At the time of writing, the wordpress.org site is broken due to a recent redesign and many links were down, due to I guess heavy traffic :-(

Upgrade to WordPress 2.0

I will be upgrading my blog to WordPress 2.0 so if anything breaks, please bear. I’ll be working on it to get it up ASAP! :-)

Which Sci-Fi character are you?

On October 20, 2005 by Anant With 0 Comments - Blogging, Yours Truly

Which Fantasy/SciFi Character Are You?

James T. Kirk

An impassioned commander with more respect for individuals than for authority, you have a no-holds-barred approach to life and its obstacles.

I don’t believe in the no-win scenario.

James is a character in the Star Trek universe. STARTREK.COM has his Starfleet record.

Google Blog Search

Google Blog Search allows you to search for blogs about your favorite topics. Works quite well though search relevance can be tweaked ;-)
