...new bottle

Changes have been made
Of all sizes and shapes
Some are in order
Most are somewhat late

The old template has made way for the new
(As old things often must do)
From the classic (but boring) Black&White
I offer you blues and yellows and a cheerful shade of granite.

Don't think you'll notice, it's too faint
(I've tried to darken it, in vain)
All the same, I should let you know
That the lines below the blog-name
Are different from before

What else... let me think...
Oh yes, the links!
The sidebar's seen some action
Nothing's been removed, just some additions:

I now have a space to boast
About the great books I read
And below that, to raise a toast
To the nice new movies I've seen

Finally (for the sidebar, that is)
I've added a new counter of hits
So I can know I haven't been posting in vain
Even though the comment count stubbornly remains the same

From today my "complete profile"
Is slightly more complete
It now has a random query
And the response it received from me

Lastly, and leastly
The bottom of my page
Has a little button that claims
I'm only the 77th most popular Indian blogger these days

It would do my cause
A world of good
If you would continue to visit
(From different IP's if you could)

In return I give you my word
For whatever it's worth
That I'll post as regularly as I can
Meanwhile, could you please de-lurk?
