How To Keep Your Passion For Blogging Going

A couple of days back while interacting with a couple of fellow bloggers, I realized (by virtue of a couple of statements made by them) that they had gradually lost their interest in Blogging.

This is not an uncommon phenomenon. Most bloggers do not feel the same passion about blogging as they did when they had just started and ultimately end up following the "I QUIT" route.

Now this leads us to the question: What causes this lack of interest? 

I feel that its because these bloggers end up taking blogging as a COMPULSION. All this talk about the necessity to post regularly and build links has got to have its side-effects. People feel a certain compulsion to follow these so called 'RULES OF BLOGGING' and here lies the reason for their lack of interest.

Let me clarify this statement with an example.
We all enjoy reading classics. If we find a book interesting, we generally tend to devour it within a couple of days, even if it means reading till late at night.  However if the same book is introduced as a text book at school, which one has to read compulsorily in order to pass an exam, all this interest somewhat vanishes.
Thus the key to success as far as blogging is concerned, lies in enjoying every thing you do. Remember this simple matra "BLOG WHEN YOU WANT TO AND NOT WHEN YOU HAVE TO"

Good Luck.

Man: Yes, it is. Boy: I have a baseball glove. Man: How much? Boy: $750. Man: Fine. A few days later, the father says to the boy, “Grab your glove. Let’s go outside and toss the baseball.” The boy say's, “I can’t. I sold them.” The father asks, “How much did you sell them for?” The son says, “$1,000.” The father says, “That’s terrible to overcharge your friends like that, that is way more than those two things cost. I’m going to

The Great SMS Android Swindle

Cyber crime is nothing new but now smart phones have become premium targets for malicious criminals. They are attractive to cyber criminals because of the data that they contain, and the services they provide particularly the payment processing services. They also are often much less secure than computers and laptops.  In the last week Google removed over 22 apps from the android marketplace and suspended the developer accounts. Android users in Europe should be wary as some apps on the market are more sinister than they appear to be at first glance. These apps are capable of sending premium SMS messages without the mobile users being aware. The attack has been centered around European users, who do not realise that they may be charged upto $5 per SMS. The apps being developed and made available for download are being disguised as popular and authentic games or add-ons to already popular and trusted games,  often just by adding the word FREE, like Angry Birds FREE to dupe use
