Scoble vs PayPerPost = Tom vs Jerry

Hey all,
    You’ve all been hearing about PayPerPost a lot during these past few days. The fact remains - I’m quite eager and excited on the prospect of getting paid to post :P Before I continue with this post, let me tell you this,I Get Paid to Blog by PayPerPost. Many of my posts here are sponsered by PayPerPost, and Im thankful to them. If you’re interested in PayPerPost, check out www.payperpost.com, and remember to use my e-mail id(coolmohan@gmail.com) as the referrer email if you sign up :)
    Back to the topic, recently, I came to know that there were many disparities in the blogosphere when the concept of PayPerPost was first introduced. One of the many people to scoff were Microsoft Certified Geek Blogger, Robert Scoble. Interesting to note how things have changed… Check out the pictures below…

    Mr. Robert Scoble himself looking at the PPP ad on his tablet PC. The 2nd image is the reversed version of the first image, so as to catch the text properly :)

    Heh heh. Quite a transformation, if you ask me :P
    This guy is paid heftly by Microsoft for many zillion things. He might be getting paid a million dollars, for all heaven knows! But this capitalistic attitude wants himself to be the only person getting paid. Actually, when he vehemently protested against PPP, he hadnt even bothered to research a bit. He said that PPP was like a bondchain for bloggers. Well, I dont think so. I’ve been using PPP for only a few days now, but I’m quite satisfied :)
    Mr Scoble vs PayPerPost is like Tom vs Jerry. Tom’s the bad guy, who doesnt want good to happen to Jerry. He tries to lay out traps for Jerry. But somehow, Jerry always manages to get the upper hand ;) Sorry Robert, but thats life ;)
    I think that elitists like Mr Scoble here should be maintained. We do need the ecosystem balance - the bad is always necessary for the good to survive ;) Dear reader, what do YOU think? Give me your comments! Thanky you! And thats all for today :)

Peace - A Poem by Swami Vivekananda

Hiya!
    If you’ve been wondering where I was, and why I had deviated from my usual “serious” style of writing, well, I figured that you might want a change ;) But, here I’m back in my true form. Ladies and gentlemen, let me present you a song written by the great philosopher Swami Vivekananda.

    This poem speaks of peace. It talks of how paradoxic peace is. It talks about the joy and tranquility of peace. I hope you enjoy the poem as much as I did :)

Peace

Behold, it comes in might,
The power that is not power,
The light that is in darkness,
The shade in dazzling light.

It is joy that never spoke,
And grief unfelt, profound,
Immortal life unlived,
Eternal death unmourned.

It is not joy nor sorrow,
But that which is between,
It is not noght nor morrow,
But that which joins them in.

It is sweet rest in music;
And pause in sacred art;
The silence between speaking;
Between two fits of passion –
It is the calm of heart.

It is beauty never seen,
And love that stands alone,
It is song that lives un-sung,
And knowledge never known.

It is death between two lives,
And lull between two storms,
The void whence rose creation,
And that where it returns.

To it the tear-drop goes,
To spread the smiling form
It is the Goal of Life,
And Peace — its only home!

                        - Swami Vivekananda

    How was the poem dear reader? He speakest sooth! Peace IS definitely  “the beauty never seen” and the “love that stands alone”. Makes you wonder about why we fight. Why we waste lives for trivial reasons. Why we are so jealous of our own lives, but dont give a damn to others. Makes you think of the reason for it all…. The battle…. The war…

     So think it over beloved reader! Meanwhile, stay tuned to BlogForPeace… :)
