Thanks for your post. I also think laptop computers have grown to be more and more popular currently, and now are often the only form of computer used in a household. The reason being at the same time that they are becoming more and more coffvetsecti-e, their processing power is growing to the point where they can be as strong as desktop computers through just a few years ago.

Hi Mike,
Hearty compliments on starting your web site, self – designed and self- created. It is comprehensive…the range of subjects covered is vast, caters to a wide spectrum of human interest and attention. The quality of the presentation is quite impressive..not surprising, though, coming from you and knowing your penchant for deep research and perfection.
Good luck, always…will be visiting the website regularly for updates.

Dear Sir ,
I had a look of the website, my comments (read Remarks) are:
· Please use following to introduce you
o Veteran IAF officer, A Software IIT alumni, Electrical & Aeronautical Engineer, Now an Accordionist and Published Author at the place of “ex-IAF officer, SW engineer IIT-Bombay, and Electrical & Aeronautical engineer PEC Chandigarh, now a Published Author & Accordionist”
· mikerana.com: A website with much relevant articles but….
o looks much crowded although articles are arranged in a segmented manner
o Ideally, the content should be clustered and arranged under separate blogs as per their relevant characteristics; not all articles on the same website
· Let mikerana.com should be an introductory website talking about you and your work in summary Plus dedicated different blog-links
o Each blog link should further reach to a new link showcasing all relevant blogs to that subject only
best regards
Vikas

I’m an academic writer who loves to bring smiles to people’s face.
Writing is what I do for a living and I am so passionate about this. I have worked with several companies whose goal is to help people solve problems.
I love traveling and have visited several places in the past few years.
I’m happy to have written several books that have contributed positively to the lives of many. My works are available in several parts of the world. And I’m currently working with service providers that help people save energy. Being a part of this team has open more opportunities for me to excel as a writer. I have worked with different people and met many clients as a professional.
I can handle any kind of writing and provide nothing but the best. People come to me all the time to ask if I can solve their writing problems and I accept. I find pleasure in assisting them to solve their problems as a professional.
