There would be some things which wouldn’t have changed but some
definitely have changed. It is difficult to say that this time I would have definitely
selected blogger to host the blog. Wordpress could have won the race. But now,
I am just too lazy to switch hosting sites especially when I have got the site
name registered.
There could have been changes regarding how the blog startup. When I
started it years back, I was a chirpy college kid and that time it was
fashionable to have one. Every cool nerd kid used to have one, irrespective of how
much one actually post. I started it as a personal blog and didn’t plan
anything for future that in which direction I am going to take it or anything.
The content and writing style was much different than recent ones. Though now
also, you can detect typo errors but that time it was plentiful. Another
difference is that, previously it was just the writing and nothing about publicizing
it which I do now. :P
If I would have started it, now it would have launched with a bang, probably
with some teasers. There might be a central idea around which all the blog posts
revolve. A little sprinkle of maturity could also be found.
But all said and done, I still think that if I would have to start it
now, I probably wouldn’t have started it. The schedule is much more hectic and
life many folds more busy to start something new. If I wouldn’t have started
back then, then nobody would have told me that I can do better than regular and
random writing or ever encouraged me to keep on writing. I have never imagined
myself writing anything besides class notes and exam sheets. On seeing the re-visitors
ratio such high, I get a motivation to keep pushing myself to crawl further. Crux
of the matter is that if I wouldn’t have started when I was an enthusiastic
kid, this whole experience of blogging for me wouldn’t have kick started and
today I would have been busy in something else than this.
P.S. I still like my first blog post the most: A post that describes me truly,
written with not an intention to be put on blog but actually the reason for
starting this blog and naming it.
