Bye WordPress.com

I dreamed of having a Self-hosted WordPress Blog and so I have it now.

This is my new and main blog : http://geekfume.com/

My journey with WordPress.com was very short and not much enjoyful! But really, the community was great. It is not that a standalone blog does not have to community. Just the fact is that we have to work much harder there to build one. If you are a beginner, then its an awful choice. But if you have that motivation and willingness then nothing can stop you.

Not much to say though. But these are my last words to WordPress.com.

May GeekFume impress you when it will have much contents…Byeeeee…. Will miss WordPress.com Forums…

Ahh!
At last, my Internet connection is ON.
So let’s hear this dumb story:-

I first went to my hometown in my Puja Vacations(Holidays! ). I enjoyed a lot and learned a lot there. I then came here (Where I live now) once again with in mind to format my laptop. I never did that before and so asked my big bro. He just told that do it and you’ll win as you know Computer Essentials part very well. I just followed him and easily did it but with just one disk partition and some other problems by installing AVG 9 anti-virus. I did that (formatting my laptop and then re-installing) again and then succeeded in that work. But due to some personal problems, I again formatted my PC. I know that’s very boring.

Now the 3rd time, my internet connection started working very slow. The rate which requires very high amount of dumb patient and time. I really got frustrated at that time. But now after 3-4 days, god listened me and now its working efficiently.

8 advantages of having a slow Internet connection

Image via Wikipedia

I know it sounds strange and dumb but believe me. OK! Just read further.

Not everyone gets a high-speed Internet connection[normally 512kbps+]. I too have just a 156kbps one. I know it’s very slow but I am used to it. After some months, I’ll also have a 1-2mbps one but that day will be too far.

It’s not that you have a good broadband then you are luckier than others.At most, there are huge disadvantages of having a slow Internet connection but what about ADVANTAGES? YES, you got right, there are nice benefits of it too which certain slow users notice who also have a little access to high-speed connection. BTW, it’s just based on my experience and it can’t be said for all and so keep this in mind.

New age chat lingo

Don’t know how to start this topic, but…

If you had a CHAT experience before, then you must be knowing it. When we chat, we don’t use words like ‘Laugh Out Loud’ or ‘What the Hell!’. Instead, we use ‘LOL’ and ‘WTH’.I mean-These are mostly used by teens. Chatting experience gets very informal and fast by these acronyms.

Many get confused by these terms if they don’t know it.If that’s the case then just have a search on Search engines [eg.GOOGLE,YAHOO!].At least, that’s the way I do to find out.
