Wake Up, Quazzle

A New Year is upon us! And Quazzle has been abandoned for nearly two years now.

I now have finished blogging continuously for three years, and it's a great feeling.

At the same time, I do feel bad about letting down this stupid name - Quazzle.

There does seem hope though. I'm thinking of joining a few blogging communities to see if I can come up with some interesting content to put on here. It would be a good experiment to tinker with the Blogspot platform for a while (I've been with Wordpress for a long time).

So here's hoping Quazzle has a Happy New Year this time at least!

What Do I Do With You, Quazzle?

So although I have a fairly regular blog now at another domain, I still feel the need to do something useful with this one.

I still remember the day when I started "Quazzle" with an intention of writing something stupid, just to see where it goes.

And after four years, it has gone...nowhere.

Funnily enough, there have been quite a few people using the word "Quazzle" all over the internet. It's just a coincidence of course, but it was funny to see a name I thought of being picked by other people as well.

Ah well, that's just random banter. I really do not want to abandon this blog, but what else can I do with it?

Blog, Blog, Bloggity Blog

Wow, I haven't been here for a long time!

This happens quite often. I start a blog with great enthusiasm, and then lose all heart and abandon it soon.

All around me, people are starting great blogs with some really interesting content. I hope I get the motivation to pull up my socks and blog seriously for once. 

Okay, You Have an iPhone. So what?

I'm tired of people showing off their iPhones as a status symbol. 

I'm not jealous. I'm just annoyed.

I wouldn't be annoyed if these people showed off their iPhones by showing me something useful that they do with them.

But no, almost everyone wants me to simply acknowledge the fact that it is an "iPhone" - a premium phone that only a few people can afford to have.

They then use the phone just to make calls and text their friends! That's a real sad use of technology. It's kind of amusing, because all that these people have done is bought an expensive brick, which they then carry around and protect carefully, without ever realizing its true potential. 

Woozle Wuzzle

In case you are not familiar with the phrase "Woozle Wuzzle", it was uttered by Bart Simpson in the 1994 Simpsons episode titled, "Bart Gets Famous".

That episode was meant to highlight the phenomenon of catchphrases, and how even the silliest of them can catch on easily.

As I kept pondering about what to name this blog, I decided to get inspired by Bart, and come up with something stupid, without spending much time on thinking.

So that's the story of how I came up with "Quazzle". It doesn't mean anything, and I don't expect it to become a recognizable name, but I'm just glad that I don't have to think of a name for this blog anymore!
