Slumdog Millionaire

I finally found an oppurtunity to see Danny Boyle's last movie Slumdog Millionaire. Since there were many positive critics and Danny Boyle was one of my favorite directors with his hit movie Trainspotting, i had great expectations before watching the movie. I guess because of these facts i found it a little overrated. But nevertheless I recommend this movie to everyone.

This movie is already announced as the movie of the year by many movie critics with its screenplay, editing and most of all never slowing tempo. Slumdog Millionaire won 4 Golden Globes including Best Motion Picture and best director categories. It has another 26 wins from different festivals like British Independent Film Awards, Chicago Film Critics Association Awards, Los Angeles Film Critics Association Awards and National Board of Review.

Slumdog Millionaire tells the story of an orphan from the Mumbai slums who is one question away from winning the jackpot on "Who Wants to be a Millionaire" when he is arrested on suspicion of cheating. The screenplay is adapted from the novel of Vikas Swarup, which is considered as a good piece of literarture as well. I should mention that the original sound track of the movie composed by A.R. Rahman, has some cool tracks.

How To Build A Successful Blog

Today, I would like to give you some advice on building a successful blog.

1. The first important thing is to place an unforgettable image to the header of your blog. This will make a lasting impression on first time visitors.

2. Secondly and most importantly, write posts that are orginal. You need to have content that will take people's interest. You must remember not to copy content from other sites or sources while writing your posts related to the topic or category of your blog.

3. You need to have one topic or category selected for your blog. Please try your best to publish your posts related to this one topic/category. Write a lot of posts and explanations regarding this topic. Try to read and reply all comments written for your posts. You can also visit other blogs and write comments for the posts giving the URL of your blog just to bring more readers to your blog on related topics.

4. Adding an image or a visual element to your posts will help you to describe what you are saying in a better way and in a better theme, but don't add to many images since it may ruin your focus on content and load times.

Keeping your blog active is another thing you must keep in mind. Be sure to write few times a week, leaving your blog without making any updates will hurt your Search Engine Optimisation.

Rafa in 5

Hi there,

Last weekend there was an historic competition in Australia between Rafael Nadal and Roger Federer, Rafael Nadal became the first male Spaniard ever to win Australian Open in a final that lasted 4.23 hours. There was a huge lead up, by thousands of fans, to the final at Melbourne Park between Rafa and Roger Federer since these were two of the greatest tennis champions of all time. Rafa was looking for his 6th Grand Slam victory in 17 appearences and Roger was looking for his 14th title which is the record-equalling one with Pete "Pistol" Sampras. It was amazing to see these two champions giving their best to win the title in a game that lasted 5 sets.

Rafa won this exciting the game 7-5, 3-6, 7-6, 3-6, 6-2. Federer was unable to speak, he tried to force back the tears but couldn't manage. Rafa is winning majors at a faster rate than Federer at the same age, faster than anyone except Bjorn Borg. Rafa now has a chance to make a calender Grand Slam, which can be a historical achievement since there are only 2 players who have done this before. (Don Budge 1938 and Rod Laver 1962&1969). In this modern era there is only one player who completed a Career Grand Slam on four different surfaces: Andre Agassi.

This game will be one of the classics but will not beat the final they played at Wimbledon last year which is considered to be the greatest game in history.
