How to be sticky: Keep it short, get to the point

I don't know how long I will be doing this, trying out another new thing.

Much of the posts that I make here are non-serious, provisional stuff. If I delete them tomorrow, no one will miss it.

Sometime back, I took up Google Notebook (it is closed for new accounts, unfortunately- I think sooner or later, they will bring a better version of it: because, this is getting indispensable for me these days- there should be more people like me who find it a fantastic feature).

I used it off and on, and now I am finding some new uses for this, and this is one of them: why don't I use it to pass on interesting stuff that I find, interesting but not of permanent value- instead of blogging about that, I might put it in the note-book, share it with you, and delete it later and get on with it:

Looks a good idea, right?

so I made one of my notebooks public: here it is-

Interesting Stuff for the Reader

And this is my first entry: it looks clean, no frills- neat and delicate.

Hope you like the idea, because I think of blogs as note-books, and I have opened and deleted more than twenty blogs, entries and all. So Google-notebook is the way to go, for me.

  2. Sorry. My mistake. I made it private while operating some other notebooks.
    Now it is visible. I enabled RSS too, but I don't think it will work.

    Thanks for looking in.
