Worried about rising fuel prices? It's certainly a problem for most of us when the fuel price hike pinches in our pocket by disrupting our monthly budget slowly but steadily. (of course not if your employer pays your bills directly or owning a car is not a necessity but luxury) Well, you can't do much about the price hike as it is inevitable in a scenario where global crude oil prices are soaring and government is reluctant to reduce taxes on it. So why...

Speed thrills! Most of us like to feel the thrill of it and some of us are even crazy about it. When I mention speed, it's not limited to fast and furious movies, Formula One race or Sports cars; even in our normal life we enjoy speed.

Last year on a Saturday morning, I suddenly got myself offline, disconnected from all the means of communications without which life of a geek like me becomes very difficult....

I am not Asocial, I am just very selective in socializing with people. Life is short and I don't want to waste any part of it by pretending to be someone who i am not. According to me, what others think of you matters less compared to what you think of yourself, and it takes a lot of time and efforts to build that level of confidence and ability to believe in yourself when nobody else does. I have invested so much of my time and efforts...

I have been blogging since 2011 and this isn't my first post. Yet i feel like it's a new start as I am not the same person that I used to be in 2011.

I used to post regularly on other social networking sites like facebook but blogging was almost at halt. I even tried to resume my old blogs twice but i...
