Temple Run

Thursday, 3rd May 2012Sunday, 16th October 2016 Navin Sigamany 1 Comment

Change

Friday, 20th October 2006Friday, 20th October 2006 Navin Sigamany 4 Comments

Flux and uncertainity certainly do not seem to aid writing! Such has been my state in the past few weeks, and a result, Blogocenticity has remained unupdated.  I was about to write that the past few weeks were interesting, as in the ancient Chinese proverb, but it seems that it is not ancient, not Chinese […]

Game 7 – Earliest Memory

Sunday, 30th July 2006Sunday, 30th July 2006 Navin Sigamany 1 Comment

My earliest memory is the smell of rain. Running outside to play in the puddles. Making people figures out of the wet mud. I must have been two or three then.

Game 6 – Food Plan!

Sunday, 30th July 2006Sunday, 30th July 2006 Navin Sigamany 1 Comment

Okay, after seeing Cricket win Game 5, i have been galvanized into action. The fact that this one has to do with food has nothing to do with the galvanizing. Really! It’s a quarter to one in the morning – so any food plans are only what I’m going to have till daybreak. I just […]

WordPress 2.0.4

Saturday, 29th July 2006Saturday, 29th July 2006 Navin Sigamany 1 Comment

Just upgraded to WordPress 2.0.4 The upgrade went smoothly. What didn’t go smoothly was my timing, as I’ve slipped up a bit with my schedule – it’s been way more than half an hour since my previous post. Oh well, may be I’ll make up for it somehow.

Preparing for the Blogathon

Friday, 28th July 2006Friday, 28th July 2006 Navin Sigamany 2 Comments

The start of the Blogathon is now less than 24 hours away. It will be starting at 6:30 pm IST tomorrow. 48 posts in 24 straight hours. Wonder how that’ll turn out! The past few days, I’ve been thinking of stuff to write about, though I’ve not actually jotted down any points. After thinking long […]

Scan Man and WordPress

Thursday, 25th May 2006Thursday, 25th May 2006 Navin Sigamany 3 Comments

After blogging at WordPress.com, Scan Man has got himself a domain and his own WordPress installation! Welcome Scan Man, to the joys and freedoms of having your own WP installation! The only surprising thing here is how WP.com does not support importing to a WP installation.

Pics of Chicks!

Saturday, 13th May 2006Saturday, 13th May 2006 Navin Sigamany Leave a comment

Heh heh! Finally, I get to post pics of chicks on my blog. Just my luck – I get a chance to get some fantastic close ups of the two chicks who have been camping out on my balcony for the past few days, and then I realise that Magesh has borrowed my camera. So […]

The Fifth Exam Syndrome

Thursday, 6th April 2006Thursday, 6th April 2006 Navin Sigamany 1 Comment

Vidya has been working towards a deadline for the past couple of days, and this morning she was all keyed up as everything would be over. Over breakfast, I was telling her that things would go smoothly, and that she would be at her best today. This was the Fifth Exam Syndrome. The fifth exam […]

Unblogged

Wednesday, 29th March 2006Wednesday, 29th March 2006 Navin Sigamany Leave a comment

I have been “unblogged” for the past few days. A quick post to break the impasse. I got 149 spam comments today – looks like I was not alone! Stumbled across Mailinator, an interesting way to beat spammers! Unique wildlife has evolved on many Pacific Islands, and there is a drive to preserve them – […]
