My New Blog Design

This is my new web page design which will be up in some time before the end of this month..!

To take full advantage of Flickr, you should use a JavaScript-enabled browser and
install the latest version of the Macromedia Flash Player.

Appreciate my friend for his efforts on this.

Chennai - Roads laying and difficulties

Good news is that..! Chennai corporation has started laying roads in
and around. This is the photo taken on a road at Madipakkam. Every time
the roads are laid this will be situation at the small roads in
Chennai. No one thinks of the pain people experience on the days of the
road laying. Even with bikes we have to play maze to come out of this
place everyday. Think of the Car holders and people who travel daily by
Car. 

It is already two days… I am not sure how long it is going to spread
this and fasten it to the ground and also I am not sure how well it
will be pressed to with stand the forthcoming rain in the following
months.

Corporation can take better measures and make the road laying process faster and don’t disturb the people commutation.

At least they can think of downloading the heaps in the sides of the road rather than the center of the road…

Looking forward for a better work from the corporation….

My other two photos :

Changing Of my Blog L&F

I am looking at changing the look and feel of my  Blog. I know I am a little OK with the design and I am not a great designer. I love to see great websites. I am planning to steal some of the things from great webpages and come up with a cooked up idea for my new blog.
I am looking for some inspiral web designs [where in I can steal] . I was pestering one of my close friend for a design. If any one of you have any ideas, let me know.

Cheers - Ranjith
