My first day on blogger

It is now done. After a lot of contemplation and searching for the best manner to express my thoughts and implement an open source for imparting education, the plunge is completed. I am finally using Blogger. After registering a domain "heads-n-tails.com", I found it was already taken up, here, by a now fellow blogger. Therefore, I do not have a custom domain name, directing readers to this place. I wish him well in his gambling pursuits. There is, however, another symbolic significance to "heads and tails" that I would like to share with all. But that will have to wait, and I will have to do with "a-count.blogspot.com".

I am still getting used to the platform, exploring what all can be done to achieve my ambitions. Things like getting a CC license, a custom layout, incorporating slide presentations and video when I run out of words, etc. I am yet to learn ways of enabling Google ads (images), and find like minded people who could and would donate, sponsor or advertise, to encourage and entitle me to bread, if not butter, for my efforts.

In case I do attain achievement in this venture, I humbly hope it will encourage all those with valuable knowledge, to impart the same in a manner better, to enlighten the minds of fellow humans, for whom education comes at a premium.

Education should be free! God willing, I shall succeed. It should not be a cause to worry, for those engaged in imparting education as a livelihood. Since there is enough money, and now technology, to effect efficient and cost effective education and still be able to sustain self and family. I sincerely hope this model works. It will put an end to education being used as a commercial commodity. It may not eradicate illiteracy, initially, but might promote a more effective utilisation of public sector funds. Maybe in deployment of, small economical education kiosks, spread across cities and villages, and content provided via the world wide web by experts in education. Corporates would be happy to fund such endeavours, is an educated guess. After all, they do require enlightened manpower to run their houses.

There may be many who might be thinking on the same lines, if they wish to collaborate, I'll be honoured.
