First!
If you’re a regular visitor of a site like Slashdot, or any other high-traffic news site that offers users a chance to publish comments, you’ll notice that the first comment is invariably something like, “Ha! I’m the first one to comment.”
(Interestingly, the fact that the same site is being accessed by hundreds of users simultaneously means that somebody’s “First!” comment may be the third or fourth to be registered, making the claim seem rather silly.)
Enough of that! I’d like to say a few words about what this site is all about. Like Seinfeld — the show about “nothing” — this blog is a record of events, ideas and thoughts about anything and everything that seems interesting enough to be published. I hope you’ll enjoy the time you spend here; please do leave comments, suggestions and opinions.
Signing off,
Ramnath R Iyer
