Changed my template

Greetings!

I initially had the Dynamic template and faced so many annoying problems, I thought the problem was with Blogger (well, it was with Blogger!). But, a simple Google search revealed that the Dynamic template is known to cause issues. Just check out the number of users who faced issues with the Dynamic template in this link.

It is amazing that a buggy template is one of the default options for Blogger! It is a shame, because that was the only template that I really liked. Now, I will have to settle for second best (Awesome Inc. it is called - wonder who comes up with these names!) . Oh well!

Edit: This template works perfectly well, so maybe that makes Awesome Inc. the best after all!

My very first post and why a question mark for the title you ask? I have no idea why I started this blog - there is no clear motive; I haven't even thought about what this blog is going to be. I don't even know how long I am going to blog. This is not my first blog by the way - I have done blogging before, but then it was not purely for recreational purposes. Now, I seem to have things to say but not anybody in particular to say it to. Maybe this is a good way to store my thoughts, like the Pensieve in Harry Potter:



The three question marks in the picture which is supposed to be the symbol of The Riddler by the way, also remind me of a novel series which I used to love as a kid - The Three Investigators. The three question marks are part of their business card - As this page reminds me, they stand for questions unanswered, riddles unsolved, and mysteries unexplained.

That was a nice trip down the memory lane.

Here are things I learnt while making this post:
  1. The 'p' in Pensieve is supposed to be capitalized.
  2. When you try to find images that have been tagged "free to use or share" in Advanced Image Search, you don't really have too many good options - hence the lame-ish pictures.\
  3. You can't wrap text around images in Blogger (at least there doesn't seem to be an obvious way to do so).

That's a decent start for a blog. I need to get back to work. Until next time!
