About
A web professional based in New Delhi, India. I'm passionate about web accessibility and standards. When I'm not working for my clients, you can find me reading web design & development books, posting new posts on my Web 2.0 & Design blog and listening to my favorite bands.
My other interests include Blogging, New Media, Social Networking, Data Mining, Robotics, AI, Martial Arts, Astronomy, Biotechnology, Photography, Computer Science, Cluster Management, Network Security and Multimedia.
Though I've been using computers heavily since I bought my first computer in 1998, I started designing and developing websites in January 2005 so you can still call me a web dev kid but I've enough skills to design/code cool websites.
I can also be called a blog worm. I somehow manage to read 10,000+ blogs/month. Maybe I'm able to read so many blogs because of my 2 workstations and a laptop that are always active on my desk. Sometimes, I just can't find enough time to read so many blogs but I do make sure that I'm not skipping any bloggers in the Britpack.They are hilarious! Except the Britpack, I'm regular on the blogs that can be found here.
In case you started to think that I don't have a life, no, that's not true. I do have a life. I spend every Wednesday and Sunday with nature, animals, friends, etc. I love rain and thunderstorms. I love to help the helpless if I'm really in the position to help. I love being around smart, tech-savvy people.
In the end, I'm a constant learner. I believe that a person who stops learning is dead already. Feel free to add me as your friend if our interests match.
For the people who have received my friend request and accepted it, thanks a ton!

Houston, We Need a Custom Layout
.. a custom layout for my VIRB profile. If time allows, we'll see what I end up with. For now, I'm trying to convince my eyes and mind that the current layout is not ugly.
