Yup, my blog is a year older than it was last year. And what can I say, the past one year has been truly self-satisfying – feeds have gone up, in-coming traffic has been good, money is decent and boosting too much but couple of Media mentions has done good things for my ego. From Blog Meets to Blog Camps, all have been informative and yet truly entertaining.
However the most important accomplishment has been the “people†I have met and friends I have made via TEIO. Some ended up being good off-line friends and some I haven’t met in person yet totally adore. Though on the downside, I did lose some special people as well but I guess this is all part and parcel of what we call “lifeâ€.
Anyway, without drowning you guys further in the bucket of boredom – just wanna thank you all for sticking around and hopefully this journey would only keep getting (more) interesting with time.
And lastly, would like to yell-out my special appreciation for Ms. Rakhi Sawant and Mr. Karan Johar – the ones responsible for the added sparkle to my blogging world.

Congrats Saks – in the (relatively short span of) 2 years, you are on top of the game, one of the best known bloggers in India, 300+ feeds & countless links & hits per day… whew!!!
“However the most important accomplishment has been the “people†I have met and friends I have made via TEIO”

First things first. Congratulations, Sakx.
I don’t remember when I started reading your blog, but I think I came across it searching for views on Jessica Lal murder. I have been an irregular visitor here. Sometimes I laugh and leave a comment and sometimes just shake my head and switch the window. But you can’t deny that I DO come.
That said, I think more than your views, interests and opinions (including those of more frequent readers as well), what draws me is the spirit of fun I relate to this blog. The fact that you really enjoy blogging is what I see most clearly. And that is all that really matters, eh?
Keep enjoying yourself!
P.S: I KNOW you are fed up of hearing this, but you do resemble Sanjay Dutt.
Go on, kill me.

Great. Happy B’day to TEIO.
I bumped onto your blog just by accident and ever since am checking its feed everyday. Wish your feed reader count goes on increasing with every passing day.
My site recently got 1k+ hits for 4 consecutive day. Am very much thrilled about that. Catch the details at – 1k+ Visitors.

Good to see you going strong
Congrats.
“my blog is a year older than it was last year”
BTW unless your blog didn’t exist last year, isn’t this statement true on all other days of the year as well.
