Thanks for visiting desinotes! I am Vinay Kumar – a mid 30’s banker based in Dubai, UAE - A place that’s going berserk with rapid development. I enjoy blogging and it will now happen through desinotes.com. With blogging becoming the new fad for self expression I decided, like the millions to jump into the fray.

Desinotes.com is not my first blog - I previously blogged casually under a blogger platform. Desinotes.com is my new acquisition from Sunny; a US based blogger from whom I took over recently. So you will see that the older posts are his. I have been a regular visitor to this blog and it caught my interest; so when I got a chance to own it I did it.

I too am a desi like the previous owner of this blog and therefore the URL desinotes.com is appropriate enough. When I took over desinotes, the header of the blog read as ‘Blogging with Desi Baba’ – ‘Blogging, Technology, Making Money, Entertainment’. Ideally I would like it to read as just “Blogging with a Desi”. I don’t know where Baba fits in and how! But I prefer to not tamper with the header since it has been known and promoted that way for quite some time. This blog will continue much like it did before with perhaps a focus on ‘Technology’ and ‘Blogging’ which is what most readers of this blog are interested in. This blog will continue on similar lines except that there might be a little less of “Making Money’. I am not sure how good I am at making money online to blog authoritatively about it. You need some experience to talk about something. Nevertheless I will still try!

I am an Indian, have lived and studied in India; in the state of Karnataka - A state down south of India. My dialect happens to be Kannada; a language spoken by 40 million. Although Kannada happens to be my mother tongue, it was my second language in school. Like most educated Indians I studied in the English medium and came overseas in search of greener pastures.

Apart from blogging, technology and internet I enjoy a little bit of reading, keeping myself abreast of current affairs, music and Vedic astrology. If you enjoy desinotes I suggest you subscribe to this blog via RSS. Keep an eye on my posts. I intend to make them as interesting as I can. Please keep your comments coming – Even a one word comment is greatly appreciated. Comments tell me that my blog is alive, keep me motivated and help me understanding what readers want.

Good luck and happy surfing desinotes.
