10 posts in the last 2+ years that shaped this blog

As I think I've mentioned before, I read a lot of other blogs. I love reading about south Asia, so one of those blogs that I read is Full Stop India. A couple of weeks ago, Full Stop India hit its 2 year anniversary (of the site) and the author published the post Full Stop India Turns 2: 10 Posts Which Shaped the Past Year, which I really enjoyed.

They say that imitation is the most sincere form of flattery…so without hesitation I'm going to say that part of the idea for this post came from that Full Stop India post. The other part of the idea for this post came from the My 7 Links post that I recently did on my travel site, Travel Adventures of a Desi Blonde.

TripBase's 7 links project only did 7 topics, whereas Full Stop India's did 10, so I'm going to follow their model this time. My blog turned 2 back in June, but I'm not going to let that stop me from (loosely) following Full Stop India's model. Their post described topics that shaped Full Stop India in the past 1 year. I'm going to span my entire 2+ years in this post.

Help make my friend Laura's iLatch invention a reality

These days, I'm more active on Twitter than in blogging.  Tweeting is 140 characters (or less!) and blogging requires a lot more time and energy.  For those of you not on Twitter, there's a hashtag called #FF (or #FollowFriday) where you're supposed to suggest someone cool/fun/useful to follow on Twitter.  Several times, I've done #FF for my Twitter friend Laura.

If you haven't heard me talk about her before, Laura writes on her blog, iGriza.  She's super down-to-earth and is full-on cray cray (that's crazy, to those of you not into slang) for all things Apple.  I'm talking iPhone, iPad, apps, whatevs.

I've been following Laura's blog for probably more than 1.5 years now, and a little over a year ago, she had a baby. And you guessed it -- her baby is also into Apple.  From what I understand, he loves to watch stuff on her iPad and iPhone.

Which brings me to the point of this post.
