Discovering my past
Its just over a year I’ve been living an on-line life and yet there are things about my past here that freaks me out!
Let me start with my last.fm account. I just visited my Top artists page and I was surprised to find artists such as Moby, IceCube, etc. I had a huge amount of assorted tracks before, but I dont remember these songs I played in my early days of scrobbling.
Being in the nostalgia I always am, I googled myself again, with my old forum posts befuddling me. Haha, those old spam days where I was such a newbie I cant believe now I was. Thanks to all the old mods at Digit who didn’t ban me then.
Google is also a funny thing, my nickname’s ids are QwertyManiac [no spaces] always but I use my nickname as Qwerty Maniac while calling myself, etc usage. So the funny case here is, when I Google qwertymaniac, it shows a spelling error and asks me to search qwerty maniac instead. Google plays typo killer eh?
Then there is CoComment, a nifty service introduced to me by Shreyas during his blogging heights, I don’t really visit it often but today I was looking at my early early comments what I used to make while using Wordpress.com’s Next Blog random blog hopping feature. Here is my stand, and here is my rank.
I haven’t hung around many places on the net really. Just a couple of forums, my 3 previous blogs and the beautiful last.fm.
The blogs were Yahoo 360, Blogspot and my best, the Wordpress one.
All long now, its been a fun ride online, from a stupid newbie spammer to a no-one now
As of now, am first at google for harsh j and I would like to appear in the front of search for harsh alone. Lets see how this goes ![]()
I don’t see 5 things about you.

Yea.. when you look back to the times when you were a novice on the net.. u realise how stupid u were then.. and yea.. mayb… tomorrow u will find yourself a little more smarter! lol!
About figuring out in the top in google for Harsh…get as many backlinks as possible with the term “harsh”….. I see many of your frenz still linking to you with “Qwerty Maniac”.

Been there, done that :P. I’m kind of getting sick of the online world. I need some sun, I guess. Hope this doesn’t become of you!

when i joined digit forum last year (my first forum), i was crazy enough and had hardly meddled in the online world. made some silly posts. it took me two whole months to realize what a forum means. then after that, i started quality posts. it was approximately the same time i started blogging. sometimes i like to see some of my silly posts. nostalgia is a gud feeling.
BTW, change my web address has changed. it is now :-

It is thru the digit forum we became friends, those were crazy days…. spamming in forums, quest for the free webhost online, starting our blogs, vying for the top spot in blog ranking sites, adsense craze - good old days. we had long chat sessions over silly matters. it has indeed been a pleasure being ur friend. not just that i learnt many things from u but ur unbeatable sense humour has amazed me from time to time.
