Hello World !!

Hello !!
       My name is Prakher Singhal. A very warm welcome to my first post.

About me
I'm an Indian national and a computer science professional. For living, I work for an organization on Cloud based platform & services, Infrastructure management tools, Programming, etc...

I'm passionate about sports. Like most of Indians do, I love Cricket too. I enjoy playing Lawn tennis and Table tennis as well, and always look forward to learn & involve in other games and outdoor activities. 

Why have I decided to blog?
I was looking for a platform to record my knowledge and experience, and to connect with the people, to give back to the community & learn from them. A blog fulfills most of such requirements. 

What will I be blogging about?
I don't have very specific tags to mention but my posts shall include topics related to,

  • Technical articles
  • Tips & tricks which can help you in your day-to-day work e.g. MS Office shortcuts
  • People success stories
  • Emerging trends (technical)
  • Country culture
  • Sports
  • Reviews (product I used)

  •  
 (No, that is not a typo. I left those bullet-points blank and the intention is to include new, interesting topics in my future posts. Yes, I'm felling good & excited about my blog.)
