That triggered me think, Ok, how many years I have been posting on internet?

I went digged-digged-digged upto my oldest post on this blog and found that I actually started blogging on blogger before moving to my self hosting wordpress based blog.

This seems to be the first blog post I made ever. Its been almost 5 years I have been blogging.

Had a quick glance at some of the old posts, and Its a bit of nostalgic moment.

Sharing knowledge has always been my un-spelled goal of this blog and I think it would be great if readers of my blog also get to hear from people other than just me…its kind a boring to read about what same person did recently or his ideas ..huh :)

Well, I am opening up my blog for guests posts, where I would allow other folks I know to post on it. There would be some criteria (which would evolve over the time) based on which I would allow posts to appear on my blog.

We can together make sure that this blog remains entertaining and informative. If you have concerns about a particular guest post, feel free to email me or leave a comment on the article and help me know what you think.

Do you want to share something on my blog… let me know at ruchitgarg at gmail dot com

But I think, my reading habit is outpacing my writing habit and there is just so much to share.

I think I should be doing better job with information sharing by saving time on weaving story around what I have read and forwarding my readers directly to the original stories. Off course , I will continue writing on this blog and enlighten/entertain/spam you till I find a valid reason for not doing so anymore :) which I don’t see this happening sooner.

This 140 letter blogging machine better known as Twitter will help me do this.  I will be posting/sharing links to lots of interesting items I read about. How you can get them, its very simple, just follow me.

Apart from me, there are lots of interesting personality out there in the Twitosphere  which you can follow here is a list to start.

There are tonnes of stuff available on twitter on the internet on how to use twitter is a video on the same to just get started.

Hope to meet in twitosphere as well.

This has been beautifully captured in the heading of Chris’s latest e-book 279 days to overnight success.

Its a free pdf e-book, available for download, which talks about rules he created and followed for his very successful blog.

I would recommend this for anyone who is interested in expanding their influence using social media including Bloggers, writers, online artists, and anyone otherwise interested in creating a new career.

Good job Chris!
