Finally the move to WordPress 2.0 has happened, thanks to Sepoy’s help this evening. For several weeks now, I have also been thinking about changing the WordPress theme. I really liked Zen Minimalism but Scott Wallick’s minimalist alternative veryplaintxt is something I have had my eyes on for many weeks now. I love the clean, crisp fonts and the textual feel, in general, especially for long posts. Also, I can now link my flickr account and post some photographs, every now and then, especially when I am on the road.
I still need to make a couple of changes to the sidebar, especially to list recent posts and comments. While I am at it, I also need to add to the Blogroll and to complete the new look, add a favicon. There seem to be nice plugins to make the writing process much more efficient. WordPress 2.0 is fabulous already, even without these plugins, and makes it easy to insert images, tables and anything else that catches our fancy. Anyway, I will probably need a couple of days to get all this organized.
I already like the new look and feel of the Land of Lime. Hope you also like the new theme and please do make suggestions if you would like me to add something.
A big thank you to Scott.

Prithvi,
I really like this new look. The title actually looks great - very dignified and goes with the content of your blog. Been reading your blog for past couple of months and as a Mysorean I can feel the typical Mysorean thinking in almost every article. As I keep telling my friends, Mysore is more a state of mind than a place - and in this rapidly changing, uncertain world, we all need that state of mind badly.
Keep it up,
Mohan
