Alpha Ideas crosses Two Million Page Views

Alpha Ideas has crossed Two Million Page Views.

It took the blog roughly 18 months to cross the first Million and another 4.5 Months to cross the next one.

I guess the message to all new bloggers is “Just hang in there.Sooner or Later,you will get noticed.”

I am reminded of this great quote by Calvin Coolidge

“Nothing in the world can take the place of Persistence. Talent will not; nothing is more common than unsuccessful men with talent. Genius will not; unrewarded genius is almost a proverb. Education will not; the world is full of educated derelicts. Persistence and determination alone are omnipotent. The slogan ‘Press On’ has solved and always will solve the problems of the human race.”

I am grateful to you, dear readers, for patronizing the blog.Do keep the tweets,comments and suggestions coming in.

Alpha Ideas Crosses a Million Page Views

It suddenly happened…Alpha Ideas has crossed a Million Page Views.It took the blog roughly 18 months to do so.

I started the blog as a lark and after some persistent goading by my wife.Never really expected people to notice it amongst the millions of other websites/blogs out there.

That it has gathered a readership following of some sort is a kind of a miracle in its own way .

I am grateful to you, dear readers, for patronizing the blog.Do keep the tweets,bouquets and brickbats coming in.

Support Sankara Nethralaya

Sankara Nethralaya is the best managed charitable organisation in India.

Readers may be interested to know that the great late Nani Palkhivala donated his entire estate to this organization.

I had the good fortune of meeting Dr.Badrinath, the founder of Sankara Nethralaya.It was an extraordinarily humbling experience to meet such a great man who has literally bought light to millions of people.

To support the wonderful work of this organization, I have put a small banner ad on the right side of the page.I hope some readers would also support Sankara Nethralaya via a small donation.
