After much rumination, procrastination, research, planning & testing I have finally managed to set up my own website. I have also moved my blog from its old home to http://rajatupadhyaya.net/blog. Please update your bookmarks & the links which were pointing to my Blogger site. You don't need to update the feed URL as it has already been redirected to the feed URL at this site.
This site is still "a work in progress". Much of the content here is preliminary. I am doing my best to remedy this situation though.
Comments and feedback are welcome.

1) Commenting on posts is possible only for a particular period of time (typically a month after the post date) after which commenting gets disabled for that post. This is done to keep discussions relevant and timely. (Note that disabling of commenting does not hide previously made comments)
2) The copyright of the comments published on this site rests with the respective 'commenters'. However by posting your comment on this site, you agree that I may use your comment freely on this site with due attribution.
3) I reserve the right to delete any comments.
4) Comment spam is not tolerated in any form.
5) Sometimes the comments you post may not appear immediately on the site. This is typically because your comment is suspected to be some sort of spam. In such cases, please do not try 'reposting' your comment. Such comments are queued up for moderation & will get posted on the site if I deem them harmless.
6) Commenting under arbitrary names is not encouraged. When you are expressing your opinion, at least have the guts to stand by it. If you want to be a 'c00ld00d' or a 'hotgal', you can take your comment elsewhere.
7) I reserve the right to modify this comment policy as and when I please.

Frequently Asked Questions
What software do you use to manage this site?
I use WordPress, which is "a state-of-the-art semantic personal publishing platform with a focus on aesthetics, web standards, and usability".
What about the look and feel of the site?
The site uses a modified version of the NFOoverload theme.
Why did you create the site in the first place?
I started blogging at Blogger in April 2005. Blogger is an excellent platform for a beginner. But with time, I began to see the limitations of Blogger. After much investigation & testing, I opened this site in April 2006.
How do you host your site?
I bought the space for the site from Nettigritty. I got the domain name from Lead Networks.

It has been a year since I started this blog with this post. The most memorable thing about that first post was the first comment that was registered - by Mr.Barger himself in response to the "Did you know?" section in that post. "How did he know about your blog?", you may ask. Presumably he had used one of those tracker thingies which send out alerts whenever there is some new content on the web about the topics you specify. Anyway, thanks Mr.Barger - for the comment (that made my day) and for the erstwhile neologism.
Thanks to all of you who still try to follow my posts despite my erratic posting patterns. Muchas gracias!
P.S. I have certain things planned for the blog. Let us see how things turn out. (And for the Doubting Thomases out there, I am not joking. ;-))
