The age of 'blog ' pathys

Read this chennai chronicle news . This will really encourage you to blog because laks of people are blogging daily in India.

The age of 'blog ' pathys

Frustrated with the fact that the money making drill known as your job has evolved into sitting at a desk from 9 to 5, getting paid peanuts at the end of the month? For all those buckling under the monotony of daily life, the global phenomenon called blogging may just have opened the doors to wealth heretofore unseen in office space.

But how does this work? The answer lies in the revenue generated from ads posted on each blogger’s site. Kiruba Shankar, a popular blogger from Chennai, says, “There are several ways to make a handsome earning through blogs. However, the most popular mode happens to be through ads, specifically – Google’s Adsense service. Subscribers of the service are paid a commission on the basis of the number of hits that ads placed on the subscribers’ blog get. The ads are posted according to the relevance of the blog.”

If you are a lover of gadgets and you frequently blog about the latest in gizmos, your blog could be posted with ads pertaining to local dealers of such gadgets, auctioning sites that sell them at different rates etc. The revenue earned by a blogger would depend on various factors. Ganesh, the blogmeister of Rupaiya.com explains this, “The money you make from the ads depends on the subject of the blog, it’s popularity and its ranking. For an ad space, one can earn anywhere between Rs. 2,000 to Rs. 9,000 per month. Hits on these advertisements could a fetch a blogger anywhere between Rs 4 to Rs. 300.” Ganesh says, “I have made about Rs 7 lakh in about a year and a half. But there are even those who earn from Rs 5 lakh to Rs 20 lakh per month.”

Parminder Singh, the business head of technology, Google India says, “The revenue as well as the exact number of bloggers in Adsense are confidential. Of course, it’s very popular in India and almost every major blogger is a part of it.”

However, ads are not the only way to make money through blogs. Ramanujam, an engineering graduate who makes more money from his blogs than his ads says, “I write product reviews and link my blog to the product’s website. So in turn, that company pays me.” He adds, “I have made almost a six-figure amount which is enough to sponsor my higher education.” But before these figures tempt you to quit your job and start blogging, Kiruba cautions, “It may look like the next big thing in terms of money, but it’s not as easy as it seems. Only a fraction make that kind of money. Moreover it takes a blogger almost a year, maybe more to make money.” Jamshed. V. Rajan, the product head of Ibibo.com, says, “Even though some portals have a system similar to Google’s, they are not as popular, due to the factors like accuracy, relevance etc.”

Are you getting the answer to the question ,'For what, are you studying '??

I am really strugging to get answer for that question. In my schooling days I thought , "I am studying for getting first rank in class". Then I understood that the answer was not sufficient for me to keep interest in studies.
Somehow I managed to get P.C Thomas tuition Centre in Plus two days. Then I understood , I was nothing , I was totally weak in lot of areas . Getting a good rank in P.C class was very difficult, that retarded my interest in studies. Then I kept another target as getting admission in a good engineering college. After getting ECE in Thrissur GEC, I realised that also not giving a permanent desire for study. For what I am studying ? getting good job, getting a rich girl, buying a car....etc.. These answers had come through my mind . But those were not giving me a final answer or an end to that question.
After started to write some technical things in my blog, I realised that I could have write more technical things or whatever I had studied. That would be very useful to next generation and also my article or blog would live even if my age over. Currently what I am thinking, just write down in blog whatever I am studing. Actually these intention, really give me interest in studing.

The 96-yr-old who blogs

Understand the meaning of the words of Randall on his 96th year.

"I am a learner. I believe that when one stops learning he ceases to live and that it is never too late to learn,"

These words are nice and encouraging me to do what I am hided in myself.


Randall Butisingh


At an age when people begin to lose interest in many aspects of the world around them, 96-year-old Randall Butisingh not only mastered the intricacies of the internet but also began his own blog, which describes him as one of the world's oldest bloggers and shows him as a man with a remarkable catholicity of interests.

The grandson of indentured workers who were taken to Guyana to work on sugar plantations, Butisingh has watched the world transform many times over in the past nine decades and has adjusted himself to the changes.


"I am a learner. I believe that when one stops learning he ceases to live and that it is never too late to learn," Butisingh said.

At the age of 80, he learnt Arabic so he could read the Quran. At 95, he began studying Spanish and he is doing it "poco a poco" (little by little). Butisingh has an agile mind and an eager interest in life and at present he is studying the Hindu religion and philosophy.

Butisingh's blog is versatile. Its subject categories vary from Buxton (his home town), economics, world politics, environment, history, philosophy, poetry, psychology, religion and an inspiring thought for the day.

In April, Butisingh posted a blog on his website that stressed the need to keep the internet an open arena and out of the hands of those who wished to place restrictions on this free medium. He responds to every comment or response to his popular blog.

Born in Buxton, Demerara, in what is now Guyana, Butisingh has never visited India since he does not like travelling, but he has followed Indian history and geography.


"The person I admire most is Mahatma Gandhi, the architect of India's freedom. Although I never saw him, I wept when he died as many did all over the world," he said.

He has three collections of poems to his credit - "Love's Light", "Wild Flowers" and "Love's Balm". His poems were written in the 1970s and he was inspired to pen them after reading about the life of the late blind and deaf humanitarian, Helen Keller.

Explaining his daily routine, Butisingh said: "At my age, I do not work strictly as per routine. I cannot read for very long although I have good eyesight. You may find me in the day resting for hours and at nights up until two or three reading or typing up my blog.

With the death toll from a massive earthquake in China now above 67,000, the government aims to prevent new deaths by protecting survivors from possible floods and the threat of a disease outbreak. Jamila Trindle reports from Beijing.



Chinese health officials said Tuesday that they have begun the country's largest public health effort in recent history to guard against the threat of epidemics among survivors of the Sichuan earthquake.

Concern about possible outbreaks is rising not only because survivors are living in cramped, sometimes unsanitary areas, but also because the threat of disease is always higher in the summer. Officials say there have been cases of diarrhea, tuberculosis, and hepatitis among survivors, and they are monitoring the cases closely.

Ministry of Health official Chen Xian Yi says researchers have compared the current outbreaks with disease patterns before the quake.

Chen says that they have found that there are no more cases after the earthquake. In other words, he says, so far, there has been no big outbreak of disease.

While health workers focus on disease, soldiers are trying to evacuate an additional 80,000 people from around a lake that formed when a landslide dammed a river during the quake. With heavy rains expected in the coming days, there are fears the dam could give way suddenly, causing a flood that could endanger more than a million people. More than 70,000 people evacuated the area earlier.


how deeply the disaster affect the people in china. If you want to see the coordination of chineese people even in this critical situation read the ppt . http://naveendavisv.googlepages.com/Earthquake11.ppt
