****wood

So, it was lunch time on my last day at Decidyn(This is where i spent my 3 month long vacation doing training). Everyday we start talking about some random stuff. Sometimes, its about politics, sometimes about government, college life, different places, aarushi murder case, or whatever that comes to some crazy guy's mind in that room.

Well, today it was about how people try to copy others. Actually how the Hindi film industry took their name from Hollywood and called themselves Bollywood.
Now, that doesn't end there. After this, the Telugu film industry called themselves Tollywood and then the Tamil film industry called themselves Kollywood.
And just when you think the names can't get anymore weirder, the Kannada film industry calls themselves sandalwood.

I just couldn't believe this. Thats totally ridiculous. So, i opened wikipedia and tried to find out if there are some more film industries which have "-ollywood"ish names and found out this....

Mollywood -- Malayalam film industry
Tollywood -- even the Bengali film industry has the same name
Punjwood -- Punjabi film industry
Chinawood -- Some arbit Chinese studio which apparently is the largest in china.
Choliwood -- Peruvian film industry
Nollywood -- Nigerian film industry

and my favorites

Dollywood -- Bangladesh film industry
Lollywood -- Pakistan film industry

I just want to say if anybody has any plans of starting a film industry, pick your letter soon or else you wont be left anything.

Internet adda

And finally a blog of my own...

I created a blogger account way back about 10 months ago itself around Sep '07 but i always used to think that i need a perfect start.
A perfect timing to start.

I told to myself let the mid sem finish, i'll start writing. And when that finished, i wanted Crescendo to get over and after that end sem was just around the corner. Holidays came. And then again, 6th sem started and the same thing over again. Some random club fests, mid sem, Engi, Inci and then again end sems.
A whole semester passed by just like that.

All this time, i was reading so many of my friend's and some random blogs on the net wanting to write my own.
And then, came holidays. Three months. I wanted to pass time. I didn't want to be jobless.
I was thinking of starting sometime now and like some kind of a sign, our very own Bheemboy said that there really isn't any right time to make public your blog.

And so, now that my training is over, here i am. New into the blogosphere. Making my mark on the web. Ready to pass the torch. To share my wisdom. Where lot of people hang out. This is the internet adda, where a lot of cool things are happening and are gonna happen.

And also to all my non-blogging friends and readers, there really isn't any perfect timing to start writing a blog.

Whatever you want to do tomorrow, do it today.
Whatever you want to do today, do it now.

So start writing whatever you feel right away. There's no rule that your first post should be a big hit. Once you start hitting the keys, its a completely different world. Believe me.
