Tag - 2006 Top Ten

Top 10 things to do in 2006.
Tagged by saaya. Actually I didnt have a Top 10, but anyway, I think this would make sense.

1.Thank Bloggers
I thought blogging would be dull after not being able to blog in o3. But actually it became better from last month. Thanks bloggers, especially for the Do U Know participation. It keeps me on my toes. Special thanks to all the o3 bloggers who consistently come here and dont mind the word verification. (Actually a post is on the way, on it, the problem is finishing it)

2.Stop checking o3 support blog to see if they have solved the problem.
They said after Diwali, its probably Diwali 2006. So dont waste time scrolling through the comments.

2.Stop creating or logging into O3 account
It doesnt work. Logging into it is a waste of time.And trying through 7 is enough. Any more would be spamming Indiatimes.

3.Spend 4 hours a day for blogging
Stay at home blogger might be fun. But part time blogger is better, for self.

4.Stop thinking that many bloggers could read the "Indian Sports minus Sania minus Narain"
The mainstream media isnt dumb. It knows what readers are interested in.

5.Start studying
From Today not weeks before exam. And blogging is not studying.

6.Drink 8 glasses of water.
So what if you couldnt do it last year, doesnt mean you cant do it again.

7.Talk softly
Thats a tough one, but atleast try it. Sometimes the message can be more important than the volume:)

8. Plan for it
Its not enought to think I will do it, Plan for it.

9.Dont give up.
If you fail once doesnt mean you cant do it, try to do it again.

10. Keep it open
You may not figure out everything in January, it could come in December, there is always room for improvement, keep it open.

    Yeah O3 support is dead and extinct.. guess even the office boy who was involved in it has put his papers down and the watchman is taking care of it ;))

    And indian sports..sorry me too guilty for not being able to drop in too often in there.

    Anyways hoping ur top10 r gonna happen in practice

  4. Donks...
    Just a suggestion..
    I too am unable to post from my office PC...on O3
    But it works from home....( No logic to it, but.... )

    Try logging in from a different PC, and preferably one having an XP OS..!!

  6. hi , .. a first timer here on your blog , came from prakash's my-digital-dairies .... One of my resolution for 2006 was to drink 8 glasses of water every day too ... I thought I am probably only one to have such resolutions , thanks to you for I know there exists atleast one more who has same resolution , Its really good for health and some hown on average cant drink more than 6 glasses , I also want to drink 2 glasses just after I get , but I forget daily ... :):)

  7. Hmm. was looking for an email id to send this to, could not find one, so the comment space it has to be.

    Going through your earlier posts I was reminded of the old days at the much slimed house trying breathe some life into o3, was good fun fighting the borg, but it never worked out.

    I heard from one of the tech team chaps from there today and he told me that there is nobody managing the o3 thingie, only the landing page is updated. The last person on the support blog quit the joint some two months ago, so no point looking for help there either.

    The o3 account authentication is not handled by the blog application, it is done by the common login thingie. You might have better luck (if you are really lucky that is) complaining to the general Indiatimes feedback contacts, though from what I remember they'd more or less refuse to give you the login details if you can't remember the password reminder question.

  9. prakashvenkat :)) and i thought , i was the only one :D

    well its terrible,but generally for me its just 2, but one of the other bloggers who drinks the reqd level, suggested that it would be easier if i could increase it by a glass everyday.

    i think if u can drink 6, 8 is very easy.

    ***
    codey great now my poem to o3 support is a waste:( the prob isnt wiht login its with posting. so guess end of story, though it was fun while it lasted.
