About This Blog
Tastethetech.com is where I post my experiences with gadgets, software and games. Some of them are related with computers and some are not. This is obviously just another technical blog with blah-blah of technical world out there.
The side which I like of this blog, is that some part it, means some posts focus on ‘low-end gaming’, because that’s what I found around me.
About K. K. Sonakiya
I would like to introduce myself in my own words rather than in some third person mode (even when I wrote it myself).
I am a Professional Blogger. And as for my credentials regarding studies goes, I am still graduating from B.E. So, if I were to answer about the question, “Why did you start blogging?” , then I would love to say, “To earn something while my way to graduation!”
Yeah! It’s true. And I have just one motto in my life, ‘If you do something, then make it clear, at least to yourself.’ So as of now, I have started to blog for money and I have chosen the niche (topic), which I can write at the best of my ability because I am inclined to it.
I have also worked for a freelance writing company while searching my way to earn online. Earned quite a few dollars and rupees (yeah, both!), but they were not quite significant and I had no choice but to quit them, as they were more time consuming and less rewarding.
In Nov. 2008, I found out that people were getting paid to write articles online. AssociatedContent.com was ranked on top when it came to reviews (or as far as I searched) and all other websites were discussing about having a blog and earning.
I picked up AC and submitted handful of articles, not knowing they will work or not, I started working locally. But when I saw few dollars pouring in my PayPal account. I thought to myself, ‘I should give it a go’.
That was already March 2009 and I started to deliver some quality articles. Since, AC had special offers only for US, hence I could not gather that charming $1 to $10 per article as upfront payment, but I continued to earn performance payments.
Right now, I am on clout level 8 (out of 10) and quite happy with AC.
(Update 29/4/2010 – AC has stopped paying performance-payments to Non-US residents and that was the saddest day when I got the email. But eveything is fine now, my blog is now in better shape.)
My inclination towards Blogging started when I searched more about it. I am not sure if I should say it or not, but I call Yaro Starak and Gideon Shalwick as my Mentors. Because they taught me (or so I thought), how to create a blog and handle it, from scratch. Their videos on Becomeablogger.com helped a lot.
Other Stuffs that I do…
I love Basketball as a sport and magical Novels as a perfect night-time read. And in that category, I would love to put Harry Potter series and on top of that, first and seventh would be my all time favourite.
Do I write novels too?
Well, Yeah! I can’t deny it! But it is meant to be shared with my friends and family only (psst. . . . the secret is nobody will publish them!)!
But I think that my online friends might want to read them as well. So I will open up another site just to share my fantasy and magical stories later and I’ll update this About Me page as well.
At Last . . .
I was born in Morena, M.P., India in 1989. I am currently in Bhopal, M.P., and working my way with graduation and blogging together. I know that writing in third person’s mode gives you better credits from Google. But right now, I am not concerned about it because it is only one page, which is dedicated to me and I am not planning to sell it to Google.
That’s my ‘About me’ stuff. Just a regular guy with ‘just another wordpress blog’, probably not!! Thanks for visiting my blog and reading about me.
