Blogging and Plotting

One needs to plot well to blog well. This insight came to me, after the fact. I attended two literary sessions at "The Arts House" in Singapore this week. If I wanted to portray the dynamics of people in both the sessions, I need photos and video. As it is harder to integrate video into blog, the next best thing is photos. Yet, I missed taking photos that brings to life the interactions, even though images would have been still static in nature.

This plotting of a blog is akin to travel photo-journalism. One has to bring out the adventure with both words and photos. Words alone to me would be too boring. Photos alone will not express that emotion behind the image.

The lesson is to plot ahead to blog better.

I will be changing my Blog title to "Sight to Insight", after a good comment from a friend who has since immigrated to Australia for a change in life-style. For me, it is also a change in life pattern, as I bring insight (learning) from sight (observations in life) to some of my readers who are so immersed in their "plot" to wealth and fame, that they may have forgotten the "blog" of life is passing them by.

Soon, that familiar question will arise, "what difference have I made in the lives of others?"

Leave your personal comments - your "insight" may help others to "see" something they could have missed.

A Blog that Integrates

As I experiment with blogspot which is part of iGoogle, I am beginning to feel its power to integrate. The article on Natural Cure, is posted directly from Google Docs (Beta) in which the original resides. This is the first time I attempted this action, and it works seamlessly. I can now easily write an article in word document, store it in Google Docs (Beta), and then publish it to my blog. If you go to the Links on the left and click on the "Pictorial Journey" you are immediately taken to Picasa, which is also part of iGoogle. In this photo storage, you are able to see what I have put in as public photos. You can also have private photos which are not shared. I have not tried video, as it takes time to edit for something that is worth sharing. Google has purchased YouTube for a few billion dollars, and this means you can integrate video as well. I am sure it can be linked to e-Bay which you buy and sell your stuffs and many more. I have to keep this experiment going to opti...

Expectation and Reality

Which parents do not wish the best for their kids? Which kids (teenagers) ever understand their parents? Hence the arrival of the generation gap. While the parents work to fill the barn with grains for a stormy future; the kids pass out the grains to demonstrate their pride in having what their contemporaries may not have. This same phenomenon is like the Chinese saying of wealth will not last three generations. The first generation painfully work hard and save to grow the wealth. The second generation appreciates this hardwork and continues to grow but use the wealth cautiously and educate the next generation. The third generation does not see the hardwork, but that they have more than sufficient to use and lose their hunger to find food. Eventually they lose it all through laziness and extravagance. The Americans spend more than they earn to sustain the growth economy of developing and emerging nations. They owe the rest of the world about thirteen trillion dollars. Here is the live ...
