My Hundredth Post!

Hi friends! It’s barely 4 months into blogging for me and this is my 100th post already. It’s hard to remember how time flew and I was able to write around hundred articles. I’m actually blinking my eyes with astonishment while writing this post! Initially I was a girl who wrote kid poems and stories but with my blogging friend’s and their motivation there was a drastic improvement! I take this opportunity to thank all of you, my friends and all others who encouraged me and helped me enhance my writing skills!


The Blogcatalog

The Blogcatalog is a place where bloggers worldwide can meet, and promote their blogs. After joining this great forum, I found many great blogs which are now my favorites. The community here is very helpful and co-operative and its discussion forum is flooded with topics suited to all new bloggers like me who want to clear their doubts.

I've named few members of the society who are real inspiration to me and great friends too! But, these are only a few and doesn't mean that the others are not my friends or not helpful, as otherwise my 100th post will become 100 meters long!!

  1. Chris -The robot who never sleeps
  2. Mark (Stoneman) -The always helpful historian
  3. Manictastic -My encouragement
  4. Mikster -Who says he writes rubbish, but I think the opposite
  5. Vishnu -The funniest blogger
  6. Madamex -The intelligent lady
  7. Morinn – The always cheerful girl
  8. Crpitt -An inspiration
  9. Nothingman -The story-man and a wonderful (nameless!) friend
  10. Guardian Angel -My blogging guardian
  11. Spirit- A teenage blogger like me
  12. Deb-She has kind words for all
  13. Footiam - Always helpful
Stumbleupon Society

Whenever I need to search for a good post or a great blog, I immediately go to Stumbleupon. Some of its supportive members include:

  1. Steve - An integral source of inspiration
  2. Leena -the lady professor who takes up social causes
  3. Etienne-The owner of a fabulous blog and a good friend
  4. Jeise-A good friend and a maths lover
  5. Cindy -Who can even recycle you
  6. Petlvr -The pet lover
  7. Megha Mathur -The doctor blogger

My Student Friends

The people mentioned above are all very well experienced bloggers with years of blogging. But how can I forget my fellow students of blogosphere from different countries?

  1. Stephie-A good friend and a spiderman fan
  2. Nadine- A talented kid
  3. Elizabeth- A good friend and a great motivator
  4. Nick-A funny guy who owns a cool blog
  5. Josh-A blogger to go great miles
  6. Ranjani-A fabulous writer and a true inspiration
  7. Deron-A witty kid with a great blog
  8. Amber-A great student and an even better friend
The Regular Commentors

These are the people whom I eagerly look forward to. They are the lifeline of my blog. After publishing each post, I look many times a day to see what they say about the post. Always get some encouragement or constructive criticism.

  1. Peter Pie-A faithful reader and friend
  2. Catherine-A friend with useful advices
  3. Prabha-A fellow Indian and good motivator
  4. TKG-A great friend
  5. Nitin-A man with constructive ideas to improve my blog
  6. Nikita-A chess freak like me and a girl with sweet words
  7. Ann-A great friend who owns a wonderful blog
  8. Ess47-A great motivator and blog owner
  9. Whimsy Gal-A good friend

My Blog Reviewers

A few friends who thought that my blog was good enough to be reviewed and helped improve my blog tremendously!

  1. NetCritics.info - You should read this to believe it. Can anybody write funny reviews like him?
  2. Nusuni Dot Com-Really valuable suggestions which I implemented to make my blog attractive for all of you.
  3. Web Mash-A review with constructive criticism which I loved based on which many changes are made.
  4. Sindhu-The blogger who gave me valuable tips.
  5. Don Williams- An unbelievable review, memories of which I cherish always.

Fellow Indian Bloggers

We have the same nationality and are present on the blogging world too. It’s good to feel that there are bloggers from India who are doing so well. Looking at their blogs I too am motivated to do better thinking that if Indians like me can do it, why not i?

  1. Anoop (Xh)- A regular commentor and good friend
  2. Jeevy-A talented writer
  3. Neha Chandok-A wonderful lady who owns a good blog
  4. Ranjhani (Rampanheart)-An inspiring girl full of kind words for me
  5. Champ-A sweet lady all up for environmental causes
  6. Ankit Shukla-My great friend!

The list is endless but I couldn’t include all the names or this would become a never ending post. That doesn’t mean you’re not a good friend or motivator but only that I couldn’t include your name this time. Maybe I’ll do it in the 1000th post next time!

Thanks once again to all and I believe I may even reach a million post with so much fun blogging!!

Congratulations on your 100th. post! I think I'm at 156? I started six or seven months ago, but I'm too lazy to look that up.

Oh, by the way, tomorrow, maybe even tonight, I will take 10 to 15 minutes and write up the story I created for you, 'A Story 4 Meghna - The Coughing Coffin.'

I'm snowed in and sick as a dog, but I should have the time tonight or tomorrow. The story will be about a boy, a very handsome boy, named Sanjay. This story is not only for you, but you will feature in the story yourself! But you will have to wait and see tomorrow, or maybe even tonight just what your part will be?

Again, happy 100th. Before you know it, you'll be at 200! The more you write the better you'll get, even if some of posts are not as good as others, every little bit can make a big difference.

Happy blogging. :O )

The 100th post is a very special one. It gives you a moment to look back and see whether or not you are doing a fine job. I'm sure if you look back, you'll find out that you have only improved and haven't moved over to bad posts -like I did on a previous, now non-existing blog. I wish you and your blog a happy 100th post and may there follow 100 more.

crpitt

Oh dear I feel a bit embarrassed being called an inspiration, but thats a lovely thing to say :)

BlogCatalog has been a great help to me, although I spend more time there than on my own blog (whoops)

I am at 800+ posts in 12 months but that consists of photographs, paid posts, memes and rubbish :)

I think you are doing a great job

Meghna

Hi Don,
This sounds so wonderful! A story all for me and featuring me too. Wow! Thanks n advance for this kind venture. I'm grateful for all you've done for me. Hope you get well soon!

Thanks for the compliments. I'd sure love to reach a millionth post sometime!

Eagerly looking forward to reading the story!

Meghna

Hi Manicastic,
You've always been a great motivator along with being a good friend and talented writer! If I look back today, I find that I've improved tremendously. And it is all only due to your support!

Meghna

Hi Claire,
You're really an inspiration for me! BlogCatalog is a great site. I too tend to spend more time at it than my blog!
Wow! more than 800 post in a year or so! That's soo good! I hope i too can reach the zenith like you experienced bloggers!

Thanks once again!

I am a lover of children's literature

Dear Meghna, as promised I have published or posted my story that I wrote for you. It took me a little longer than I thought, 17 minutes instead of my estimated 15 minutes, but I still hope you like it anyway?

Here is the link:

Happy blogging and a million huggies from the land of snow and cold! (You can have it.... I'm sick of all this snow!)

My Kop Op 'n Blok!

Congrats! I started blogging in June and made my 100th post yesterday. I did not make anything special out of it, but of my 99th.

There was a bit of a Tag storm in South Africa and I was tagged a bit at the end of it. We have a saying in Afrikaans, roughly translating to: "so at number 99", meaning roughly "at the 11th hour", so I used it in the title for my post of 8 things about myself.

Four months and 100 posts, wow, I've been blogging maybe just twice as long as you, since April 2007, and I've only 132 posts. You're gonna catch up with me soon! :) But hey, don't stop writing. Coming here brightens up my day and often brings a smile on my face. Deb

Meghna

Hi Deb,
Thanks for the encouragement and compliments. I'm glad there are people like you who do like my blog and leave this site with a smile!

Congratulations. Let me tell you that it was the most wonderful way to write the 100th blog. Thank your friends, philosophers and guides. Not to forget the fellow bloggers too and yourself be an inspiration to them.

I was searching for my name there. Now it may not be me but Nitin was there. :-)

Tell you what; you forgot the best friend of mankind in that list. GOD! and support from your parents. I am sure that is on, isn;t it.

Meghna

Hi nitin,
Thanks for the kind words. Yes, the nitin shown in my post is you only. Sorry that I could not link it to a blog of yours, as I do not know about it. So leave your blog url.

As regard to your observation of thanking God and my parents, I suppose I do not have to do it through my blog. Both are always supportive and I thank them daily personally!!

Meghna

Hi monsooner,
Thank you for dropping by and encouraging me.

Meghna
Congrats, that's really great that you have written so much in such a short time.

I think most bloggers are proud of you. Look at the number of responses! You are such a favorite girl!

Keep on writing.

Meghna

Hi jesie,
Thank you. You are kind always and helpful too. Yes, I got tremendous response which shows the nature of supportive group of people I have,like you! Thanks again.

Anonymous

Hi Meghana,

May be I got carried away with you a celebrity as most of them and we have enough exposure to TV etc etc where they thank God and their parents publicly.

Of course you must be blessed everyday by both personally to get so much love from the world. Not all are that lucky.

Keep it up.

Meghna

Hi Nitin,
Thanks for the kind words. I'm glad that I'm lucky enough to thank my parents and Gos personally each day. But as you say, I'll try to do this in my 1000th post maybe!

Ranjani

Wooo, Congratulations Meghna! :D

Thanks so much for mentioning me, but you are the real inspiration...I've never been able to stick with a blog for 100 posts. Here's to the next 100 ! :)

Meghna

Hi Ranjani,
Thank you for dropping by and for the encouraging and supportive words. I really appreciate your gesture.

Angel

Hi Meg! Shame on me! I am too busy these days to realize that I am this late to thank you for acknowledging me as your Blogging Guardian, and the free link. Anyways, since it's your 100th post, I think it's best for you to have a RSS Feeder so all of your friends,(of course that includes me)can automatically receive posts from you automatically. Try feedburner.com coz they have good service.
Again, I am very sorry for the late reply, can't wait to see your 200th post...

JenWriter

Congrats on your 100th post! That's quite an achievement.

Meghna

Hi Angel,
I'm glad you accepted my title! I thanks you for all the sincere advices and encouragement and also for the RSS feed! I'm really happy..by the way, better late than never...so I'm glad you commented!

Meghna

Hi Teddy,

I'm glad you are going through them all...Some early posts are worth a read and I was thinking of putting them up for the current readers too.....Doing the same at your blog but will comment in the end :P
