My blog gets a new look

I am sure most of you would have noticed this by now that my blog has got a new look.

It now sports a new header, a sticky top navigation menu (always stays on top) with easy access to information on India, a prominent search bar, my location coordinates, a crisp footer, larger post sizes with clear demarcation of colors, a set of uniform style, colors and fonts, and an interactive accordion to help my readers navigate through my collection of travel experiences and photos by country.

The idea behind this re-design was to make my blog look cleaner, make it more user-friendly, make it more interactive, load much faster, make it more seo-friendly and to make sure it followed the industry UI/UX standards to the extent possible. Basically, the idea was to create a noise-free, clutter-free reading experience for my readers, while allowing them to search other content easily.

What do you think of it? Do you like it? I would really appreciate if you could share your feedback and suggestions with me so that I can continuously aim at giving you a better experience.

There are still some small chinks that need ironing out. Hopefully, they will get sorted out in the next week.

And for this website revamp, I would like to thank my designer friend Murugan Thirumalai without whose help and insights, I would have never been able to turn this design into reality. Thank you Muru!
