Still Much More About Me

Hey why should I reveal so much of me?

Anyway, if you insist, you can go to my personal or professional website.

Myself

I have already told you, I like reading. I am a voracious reader in Bengali. That's because it is my mother tongue. I tried to learn Russian back in college but couldn't go further, may be I should start again someday. I am fond of Russian literature. They impress me. And particularly I felt that Russian literature for children were at peak during the Russian Revolution. I like animations.

I joined Wiki from an urge to contribute something from my small knowledge on Bengal and Bengali related issues specially on literature front. I found that there is lack of informations on these issues. But as time passed I became lazy and less and less contributing!

And Wikipedia

I joined Wikipedia on mid-february, 2004.

Pages I have contributed

• Language Martyrs' Day
• West Bengal
• List of people from West Bengal
• Dakshin Gangotri

And not to mention the minor changes.

Pages I wish to contribute

• Bengali poetry
• Bengali literature
• Detailing on List of people from West Bengal
• All the pages related to Bengal and Bengali.
• Pages related to some of my favourite literature pieces.
• And of course all the attention-needing-pages where I can contribute.
