what my friend mandar thinks of this site
this is a chat i'm having with good friend of mine abt this blog...don't take him too seriously.

mandar: THEN YOUR PAGE IS BALNK AND BANAL
anish_raju: hmm..that shore is critical
mandar: nahi re...... there si no content
anish_raju: buddy, the whole idea of a blog is to write some stuff everyday..its not static..nor does it come with prdefined content..it grows every day....
anish_raju: so u wanna see content, and also a [peek into what i think of the links that i keep adding, then u need to keep visiting the blog every once in a while
mandar: where is your blog?
anish_raju: abe..the site u visited is my blog..
mandar: yaeh..... but u dont write anything in it
anish_raju: abe tereko dikhaae nahee pad raha hai kya?
anish_raju: what is the first topmost thing u see on the page?
mandar: just a sec
mandar: give me the page id again....
mandar: what i mean is blogs are very few and far apart
anish_raju: http://www.anishraju.2ya.com
mandar: they are just 2 liners man...... direction less.....
mandar: most blog sites i have visited are fabul....people write lotta things
anish_raju: hmm..that my friend is something i agree on..and will change..u will soon see me spouting a lot of philosophy on it..in fact some of teh latest is abt to be posted on it..

Finally!
I have my archive online, so right-click here to get some of my quizzes. If u like it, leave a note for me.

will be putting up archives of quizzes i conducted at Ramco & SIFY soon.

i'm on a quiz site hunt on the web..so here's another one..Mindturf seems to be a decent site with quizzing contests and all BUT u need to register at indbazaar.com, which they direct u to.
here's another one: Quizplayers is a british site with quizzing info, stats on quizzers & quiz shows in britain.

quiz site here
here's a quiz site which i over looked. BTW, this site is a certified ISO 9001 portal (?). The guy who runs the site was the quizmaster at the IT Quiz 2001 in Bangalore: Quizbrain

cool quizzer
dunno how i missed getting to this page..till today that is...
Suresh
has been quizzing and quizzarding for some time now, and most importantly, i like his style of questions! BTW, check out his site name..it's the reverse of his name..h s e r u s ..straightened gives Suresh..cool idea if u r running out of site names to register, and still want to retain a sense of individuality in ure site name.

Mastermind
Gave the Mastermind eliminations at 12pm today at the TAG centre. questions were much better and definitely tougher than last time around.Sample some of the questions:
1.Who was the captain of England when India played the 1st ODI against them in 1974?
2.Where was the first football World Cup held?
3.Who is the mother of Daniel Charls(i think) and an erstwhile model for Estee Lauder?
Met up with some familiar faces there....

OK, now I'm getting desperate here..basically waiting for the time to tick over past 12 in the night so that I can check the archiving facility on this site.

Can u believe it? It's 12 in the night, and I'm still up!

Captain's log
Right then. In true star trek style, I start this journey to where I have never gone before. Adding my trivia & quizzing links on the left here. Will add more as time goes by.

The Very Purpose of Life!
Quizzing, music and Science-Fiction; not necessarily in that order...add some partying in assorted areas like Bangalore, and some sleeping and biking and cricket, and you have the recipe for a mildly intoxicating life.

What you can find here are some quizzing and trivia links, some updates on my myriad moods in life(ha) and some I-don't-know-how-to-classify links.
