To raise the gross happiness index of IndiBloggers : The bloggers word building
The last word can be found here on Page 2 and not on Page 1
With a hope to increase the gross happiness index of IndiBloggers,
The most important thing in one's life is to be happy and one need not go on a world tour or hire a professional to crack jokes that makes us laugh. It is sufficient that one engages in an activity that brings us some relief. And here is something for my dear friends at IndiBlogger: The word building game. Just a few rules on the words that you can post: Post only those words that come under one of the following categories
- Words related to blogging
- Names of the cobloggers here. Insert a link to their profiles if possible
- Names of blogs of IndiMembers
- Important events at IndiBlogger (lighthearted ones and not those that flame up a discussion)
If possible try not to repeat words that are already in the word chain.
And another thing: Rather than simply posting the word, write something about it. If there is something that you would like to say about a word say it in a subreply. The main replies should form a continuous chain of words otherwise some newcomer may comment that we do not have the talent of identifying the last letter of a word.
You can post one new word each day and not more than that. However you can comment on others words as a sub reply.
Make sure that you come and play this game every day. Read the line above.
Here I start with the first reply below

A for Anon trolls- Those commenters who leave nasty comments, but are too cowardly to leave a name or link.
Ok, so maybe not ALL of them are mean. :P
yes anon trolls can prove to be demotivating for any author/blogger.

r for R.A.J.
A blogger who is always found driving in the opposite direction in a one way street.

Kind of service that tells you how a site looks to the serch engine rather than how it looks to human beings (difference can be significant)

Lorem Ipsum The filler text used to replace page elements on a website or blog for illustration the layout of a page. It is also used to demonstrate blog themes.

Thanks for the info. I knew something about it but not the exact thing. But the wikipedia link is broken
Haloscan: Haloscan is a free trackback service. (To know what a trackback is, move your eyes up ) I don't know if that service still exists. Googling it, some search results appeared that indicated its accquisition by some other company.
yes, after installing haloscan you can allow visitors to leave tracbacks to your post, in blogger. At first I thought its a website that gives trackbacks to your site , lol
for clarification, i inserted a smiley , and did not write ' tongue out '
Dr Pratibha Singh: A doctor by profession, a poet by heart and a very talented photographer...One of my favorite bloggers of Indiblogger.

SEO - Search Engine Optimisation. Every blogger needs to think about , sooner or later. :)
yeah! its a large topic!
RSS - or Really Simple Syndication.
Well said. A cluttered sidebar irriates a lot of users as it takes time to load and the users cannot find what they are actually looking for.
+1 Exactly. And the sidebar width shouldn't be too large. It shouldn't take up more than 30% of the screen or I feel that it is enroaching on reading/writing space. A blog is not made of its sidebar, it is made of its written content.
tys: An IndiBlogger who has a humour blog Life and other such nonsense
yeah! best of raw humor!
shukran habibi...
what the hell is raw humor?..i prefer things cooked.
Gurukripa : Mohini's spiritual blog ... She sees our Great Indian teachings and philosophies as a solution to todays chaotic problems and writes them down in the form of poems or prose. Do check it out if you havent yet!
Splog - Spam Blog. We all hate them. It is sad that a word had to be coined for them.
Be a Roman when you are in Rome. Similarly, be a spammer when you are on a Splog. Go ahead and attack the comments area.
Hitnosis: Refreshing a page repeatedly with the hope that either the pageviews or comments have increased

@ abhi Hide the 'refresh' button from your view by placing your palm over it.
