This site is a collection of writings and other stuff that I have been doing online, offline or in any other form. The motive behind having website is to rather get my hands dirty with technology that I might not be able to work with at office. I have been able to use Google API to fetch blog feed, and I hope to get Google map integrated as well.

I think app engine is a great way to host your personal website. Be warned that this would require some dedication and knowledge on various things like Google App Engine, Python, HTML, CSS etc. I hope to write about how to make use of Google App engine to host your own CMS. The biggest advantage of CMS that I see is that once you have the layout and style in place, adding new content is a very easy task. It for sure does not provide certain features that a blogging service does, but it comes quite close to wiki.

- Nail down things and host the damn site on app engine. Get rid of other hosting services.
- I would blog more and feel less lazy.
- I find it a bit difficult to decide about, how exactly should I go about hosting things up. I have been trying hands on blogging, wiki and pure html everything seems to have some catch.

The process of learning involves copying ideas and work of other people :) so thats the clarification bit if you find theme of the site a bit common. I certainly do intend to change the theme or at least alter it.
