People ask me what’s with this name ‘Mysorean’ for the blog?
I owe a lot of myself to this town/ small city/ whatever you want to call it. I feel there are certain personality traits associated with being a ‘Mysorean’ and I satisfy almost all of those traits involuntarily. One of the primary traits is this: Whenever someone calls Mysore a ‘sleepy town’ [or anything equivalent], a Mysorean laughs out loud, agrees with them outwardly and feels overjoyed inside that ‘ah! that’s one more person who does not understand the essence of my Mysore’. And feel happy that it is going to remain as it is forever without such dumb people.

Will this blog talk about the various tourist places or something related to Mysore?
Going by the name of the blog it is obvious that someone asks me this question. And I must have been asked this question atleast hundred times as on date. To answer the question simple and straight: NO. The blog might touch upon Mysore and other related places if I feel like it, but there is no mandate that I have defined for this blog to promote tourism in Mysore or any such noble objective.

Why are you running this blog?
This is by far the best question and trust me I have asked this myself frequently. Each time there is only one answer that comes up: ‘To express myself’. No that’s not a copy of the AirTel tagline, but that’s truly what this blog is meant for. An expression of myself. Sometimes I bare myself here, sometimes I discuss global politics, sometimes I am just silent. This blog purely reflects what is going with me in my life and in my mind. If you have any more questions for me, use the comments section and we can discuss.

Read my disclaimer because it is there.

    This has nothing to do with the said article, but is a query about something entirely different. Its about Mysore. I am a Bangalore-based writer, currently working on a travel guide style book on Mysore. I wondered if the Mysore network can be activated, thru this, to give me a list of your fave places – eat, drink, visit etc. esp eating places – like what to eat where. Kindly do get in touch with me and I shall be happy to credit you in the book. Please visit my website for more contact details.

    It happens most of the times. During my 2.5 years of stay at Chennai, I hardly met Kanndigas there – be it directly or online. After shifting back to B’lore, you are the third person staying over there :)

    Hi there,

    Sorry if I made you feel embarassed. My intentions were very noble, believe you me. By the way, in my opinion, instead of removing the GPaper post from your blog, it might have been better if you had let it be there with an editorial note describing what happened. It would have been a great personal touch and readers love that.

    You have a very nice blog. Please keep up the good work :)

    I suggest the Grand-son name should be Seetharam rather than just Sriram. Your late Grandfather will Bless Him Whole heartedly. If I am not mistaken otherwise. Congrats|

    Its been long since I made a visit to your website. The one which I am still proud to register and hosted first.
    A nicely made website to put your thougths comments and of course, the emotions which Adi always carries.
    Good work..and as always, keep the good work going..
    Just a few suggestions:
    1. Your geographics seem to show only India. Why not start using Google Analytics to find the site statistics.
    2. Do you have any plans of making some small money with your blog which can be used to pay your hosting? Use Google Adsense.

    If you need help, I am always around.
