The Fool's Reviews
The reviews have been stopped but people already on the list if still interested can send me a personal message. I will keep my commitment. People who have forgotten their requests - good for you, good for me.
Reason: Remove www from link
err is that a reply to me @the fool??
My latest review order
1. Santosh (Santa)
2. Farida
3. Angad
4. Dheeraj Shenoy
5. Mareta
6. Aabha Midha
7. Kirti
8. Pooja (If she submits)
After I see the blog in detail, I will either write a detailed review or just share personal feedback with promise of a detailed review after a few more months. If all the blogs on the list qualify for detailed review, anyone submitting next will have to wait for more than 2 months for my review.
will I (if u feel I've setteld at my WP blog before then) be accomodated in these two months, or do I have to wait till after?
Depends. Let us see. I will go one at a time.
TF bro I dont have the minimum criteria.
I will submit again When I have all of that?
@ Pooja - Ok. Submit when both you and your blog are older. Anyways I will have a look and give personal feedback. AFter all the interaction in the past 2 days, I am curious what is it that you write about.
TF please stop saying that to me.
It hurts!!!
Just because I'm young it doesnt mean I shouldnt write or blog.
And thanks.
@ Pooja - That was supposed to be in a lighter vein. Just that I belong one generation before the smiley generation. Never learnt to use them. Seems like you now want to turn the tables on me. Saw your tirade against me in the Chennai thread also. Comparing my sarcastic comments against you with murder and all. Have fun!
What???
No no. I just said that, if you kill some1 and say sorry its all in vain.
In the same way ur sorry is in vain.
Its some kinda metaphor or whatever
@Pooja - Well, I felt I was not entirely justified in my criticism of your organization abilities. Best I could do was retract my statement and tender an apology publicly. That I have done. So matter closed from my end. If that does not satisfy you and you still feel aggrieved, you can of course choose to cease any further communication with me. Thought I will take this to closure here on my own review thread rather than intruding on the Bangalore or Chennai meet threads.
I accepted your first scoldings because I deserved it.
I even apologized each and every single one of you in the thread as well as on phone.
I don't know what else I have to do to make you accept that SOMETIMES THINGS TEND TO GO OUT OF CONTROL.
You took back your apology but did you stop critizing me every chance you got?
I have nothing against you because I don't even know you.
I came to INDIBLOGGER because I wanted to meet some nice writers, and improve my writing with their help. I didn't come here looking for friends or to make enemies.
I thought this chapter was closed. But you were the one who started it again and again everywhere.
Its easy to hurt others and critisize them. But Its harder to forgive everything.
You care so much about children's safety, I think its time you started caring about their feelings too.
Anyways, I don't care anymore. I've gotten used to it. I've said sorry and almost everyone got over it. If you are not then its your problem not mine.
Good luck for your writing.
I have nothing against you.
Ok my blog has no...well...genre. :P Is that alright???
If so then, I would love it if you reviewed my blog :) Thank you
~A
No issues. Mine also doesn't though I beleive genre blogs have greater readability. Will look through and if I find it will have general interest, I shall review. If not, shall share personal feedback how to make it more general interest. But you will have to wait though as I have 7 blogs to review before yours.
I know. And my last post is something on that. About how my blog has no genre and yet, it cannot be helped in my case :P
That is fine. :) Thank you so much.
@Antara - Shall check it out. And ny the way, thanks for going over my blog posts and leaving your valuable comments. Sorry I have not been able to reciprocate. I am trying to spend all my blog reading time these days on the next blog up for review. So I shall be going over your blog in depth when your turn comes.
@TF oh hey I don't mind! :) I am usually a bad commenter on blogs. I read posts, loved them, but never commented. I am trying to change that.
Plus there is a lot to read on your blog so really like that!
Cool, Antara. I also often don't feel like leaving comments even when I enjoyed reading a post but have to leave one just to let blogger know I was there. And you can't say 'Nice one' as lot of people who don't read the post also leave that comment and blogger may think you are one of them.
Done with my next review at last. Here it goes.
http://luciferhouseinc.blogspot.com/2012/01/lightscape.html
Next up is Farida Rizawan ji (Feels odd adding ji to people's name being used to corprorate culture where you address everyone by first name without any Mr., Ms, ji etc irresespective of age or position. But guess I have to start going with ethos of this community. Do in Rome what Romans do, eh?)
The updated list
1. Farida
2. Angad
3. Dheeraj Shenoy
4. Mareta
5. Aabha Midha
6. Kirti
7. Antara
Thanks for the wonderful and very helpful review of my Blog "The Fool". I wanted to thank you earlier but thought, let me change the background and then thank you. ;). Hospitals are not wanted there for any reason. It had missed my eye for all this months, but as you mentioned it, the next moment I felt My blog has been hospitalized. Now it is in open air, under the stars.
I cannot imagine how much time and energy goes into such detailed reviews. Just thinking about it, I want to thank you once again.
Very good tips for a facelift of my blog. That is going to change the look and appearance of my blog for good.
When people add 'Ji' to my name, it makes me feel like a food item, say - sabji, parleyji etc. So you can stop adding it to my name. Also observe that I treat everybody as equal co-bloggers and friends here, no formalities. So you can do unto me, what I do unto others.
Thank you once again for your efforts and advice.
So as Farida has already mentioned, I am done with the review. Latest list below
1. Angad Achappan
2. Dheeraj Shenoy
3. Mareta
4. Aabha Midha
5. Kirti
6. Antara
7. Ramakant Pradhan
8. Leo
Am stuck up with a few things. So might take some time before I get to review Angad's blog. I thought of putting Leo on 7 but later I decided to put it on 8 as I did not want to do 3 poetry blog reviews in a row.
Hey TF, impressed!! great initiative.
I would love to hear some feedback or review of my blog. If you can put my name somewhere in the list either on top or bottom i would do anything you would say*
*things that i would like to do, that is.
Sure Indianomics. Will add you to the list. It will take time thought as you can see it is a long list. I have some functions at home in the next few days and my office guys have spent 50K to put me on a 40 hour online training and an exam to be completed by Feb 10 failing which I better clear. So won't have much time. But eventually get to it. You can red the post on my blog and leave necessary details when your blog is in to 3-4 on the list.
The updated list.
1. Angad Achappan
2. Dheeraj Shenoy

I hope to complete Angad's review before following weekend.
Submitted mine too. Truly appreciate your time and effort.
It'll be great if you could review my blog too! It's mostly anything that catches my fancy with some personal stuff and some reviews and such thrown in...
You need to leave the details on my blog, Aditya. Will take it up based on criteria I have mentioned there.
Next up Dheeraj Shenoy's Team G Square blog.

Hey I need to make a shortish and important note here. Please remove my blog from the review list. For the time being at least. My exams are coming...and I probably won't be posting anymore...or posting very very VERY erratically. And it wouldn't be fair on the other bloggers on the list when they are blogging far more regularly than I am. Plus it is a criteria for being eligible for a review from you...so there you go.
As soon as I start posting more regularly like I used to, I'll write it down here. Hope the review request will still be up then!
Thanks for listing me at the first place :)
~A
Sure will. Hope to see you back again soon. Even I have suspended reviews and blogging in general for sometime as office has become crazy. Will only resume once sanity returns at the work place.
Been extremely busy the past month - both on official and personal front. Just managed to squeeze time to get my posts for the Kissan contest and the Expedia contest. In last minute I had to rush a post for Blog-a-ton at SIS request. Don't know if I will manage post for Blog-a-ton this time. Thats why the Blog reviews and Mayan Twins series have been suspended. The Blog Reviews will resume after March 15, hopefully. Thanks for your patience.
Great to hear the reviews finally getting on track, hopefully. I am eagerly looking foward to them, especially that of Dhiraj's blog, that i suppose is next in the pipeline.
I was wondering if you could review my blog? It's new though, so i don't know if I am eligible.
I would suggest you request a review after you blog meets the criteria.
I HAVE APPLIED :D commented :D
You can leave the necessary details on my blog and I shall take it up in the order as I have metioned below.
I suddenly noticed that you had left your details. I seemed to have missed your comment. I will update list
well.. wouldnt mind a first hand review for my blog!! mind u i hv named it after my own name on purpose & its just 4 months old! so lemme know what u think of it..
I shall have a look sometime and share feedback. I would do a full fledged review after it has been around for a year and atleast 20+ posts have been posted.

After Dheeraj Shenoy's blog review, I shall leave a comment on each one on a list and wait for 2-3 days to see if they still need a review. If no response, I will move on to next person on list.
and of COURSE i still need a review @TF!!!
You can skip the comment on mine, TF. I'm definitely wanting your review. Not going back on it. Even if you take a year to review
mine is coming up, mine is coming up! yay!!! :)
Sure. In a month's time at 1 review a week unless suddenly my office guys decide to pay me without any work in which case I can do one a day.
