Many of my close friends are entering the blogging world. I am so happy for them. I started blogging in Feb 2005 and I have learnt that we need to do a few basic things when we start a blog. I learnt it the hard way but you don't have to. I have put together a starter checklist for new bloggers. I have used this list to help my friends and now I thought I will make this public. Disclaimer: This list is by no means complete and all the items may not be relevant to everyone.

This lens is based on a series of articles on my <a href="http://blog.lifebeyondcode.com">blog</a> called '<a href="http://blog.lifebeyondcode.com/blog/Distinguishyourself">Ways to Distinguish yourself.</a>' I started writing the series since Feb 2005. I am creating this lens to mark the anniversary for this series :)Distinguishing yourself is your answer to rapid commoditization that is haunting almost all professionals in this global economy. Not distinguishing yourself is to subject yourself to the risk of eroding your market value almost on a daily basis.Distinguishing yourself is hard work. This list is not meant to be complete and is only an attempt to provide a starter checklist.All the best! 

Reading is my passion. I read about a book a week. Over these years, there are more than a hundred books that have touched me in some special way. These books have played a valuable part in making me a better person - personally or professionally or both.This lens is my attempt to highlight a few of those books where I have found inspiration. Hope you will enjoy reading them too! <br />
