Fixing the cracked heart of a building :)

It's amazing how a tiny little precaution measure at the time of constructing a building can save tonnes of moolah later on. It is so true "A stitch in time saves nine"

GharExpert.com has been working on a series of articles where lay-man home makers could watch out for simple precautions at the time of constructing a home and avoid potentially expensive repairs later on.

The first article is "How to avoid cracks in the building"

Closely knit Interior decoration community

Today we launched the all new 2008 GharExpert.com website. Sounds like a car launch does it :) I was soooooo dying to make this announcement that I opened this blog as soon as I finished my last review of the website.

The first change is a new section by the name “Fresh at Ghar Expert”. This section summarizes and highlights all activities happening on the website. It is kind of interesting, as it is an attempt to merge the editor controlled contents along with the community driven contents on the same space. It also makes things interesting as individual opinions of users are delivered fresh, unadulterated, untouched to the community. Of course our editors team reviews almost every thing to make sure that the contents are appropriate but that is done in the spirit of keeping the content clean so that every one can enjoy it. So now if you have your whole Ghar to decorate or just a small room, logon to GharExpert.com and let the experts from the Ghar Expert team help you design your dream home.

In my next post I will highlight other enhancements. Enjoy 

Interior Decoration website or a magazine?

What would you prefer; an interior decoration website, an interior decoration magazine or both. Well before I start the topic I have a confession to make.

www.GharExpert.com does not have a paper publication for interior decoration so my comments would be biased for the website :) but I would like you guys to take whichever side you want.

• Magazines, especially the interior decoration ones, are really glossy which is cool
• Magazines are handy, you can take them anywhere. This is better for Indian conditions as you have to take the concept to the work site to get things implemented.
• Websites are interactive, you can interact with the website organizers and communicate with other community members. I like this one the most as we will be launching cool community features on Ghar Expert website shortly.
• Websites can have unlimited contents. Theoretically you can find pretty much every thing on a website well done. In case of a magazine you can get only a couple of months issue and then you have no idea what was there in the magazine before.
• Websites can have multimedia contents that make things interesting for readers.
• Websites can not go to the site, unless of course with a laptop and a wireless internet connection and websites are not glossy... Food for thought for the GharExpert team.
