TL;DR

Random Pearls is an organized gathering of random content brought to you by tech-savvy authors who not only have interesting ideas and knowledge to share, but also know how to present them in the most appealing way.

Alas! It has nothing to do with real pearls.

Find all the new and old content on this website by clicking on the 'NEW' link in the menu bar, or here.

Also, some of our best contributors write in Hindi as well, so remember to select your preferred language(s) by clicking on the blinking red button in bottom left.

TS;WM? See below

If the too long; didn't read was actually too short and you want more, here is some more.

The why?

For quite some time, myself and some of my friends have had this idea of sharing our experiences, learning, thoughts, opinions etc. with each other and with others.

We created this website to allow this sharing to happen.

But why one more website when there are countless blogging websites already available? For the simple reasons explained below.

  • For having good control over both presentation and content, e.g. having pages with highly customized music player, or a full-fledged calendar on third-party websites would have been quite difficult!

  • To be able to organize completely random stuff into, hopefully, less random organization. If you look at the Pearls menu at the top, you'll see that we have tried to arrange stuff somewhat neatly. This menu is automatically customized based on the newly added content.

  • For ensuring the longevity of content without much bothering about things like any limitations, paid/unpaid stuff etc. By having the full ownership of both the presentation and the database layers, we can be sure that not only the base content but its presentation is also preserved forever.

  • To provide state-of-the-art commenting experience to our users. Try commenting on any or our pages and see for yourself!

  • Last but actually most importantly, for having no messed-up privacy management for our users. E.g. even when most sites in America are still not taking user-consent before using targeting, or even tracking cookies, we do so. This means that you will not get to see targeted ads, or even any ads without your consent. Similarly, we do not initiate the Facebook like button before having user-consent. When we say we respect your privacy, we mean it.

    On the same lines, privacy was the one of the main reasons we decided not to use Disqus or any other third-party commenting platform. We use our own, and even for showing the users' display images using gravatar, we do not simply send the plain email-hash to them, but a salted one.
    We hope our users will appreciate this. Please let us know if you see any areas of improvement.

We hope to provide you good quality content accompanied with exemplary user-experience. Any suggestions and feedback are heartily welcome. You may message us through the Contact us page, or comment on any page.

How to Navigate and Other Details

As mentioned above and as the name suggests, this website is a conglomeration of whatever a few of us wish to share.

But we hope to have some order in the organization of content for the convenience of ourselves and others.

The Menus

All pages are pearls - random precious pearls!

A very good place to find all the pearls of this website nicely stacked up is the 'group-pages'. The main group-page is accessed by clicking the 'New' icon shown in the menu bar above the page. From there on, we can find our way to any page of the website.

There is a sub-pearls menu that has the descendants of the current page. It appears with the name of the current page or its parent - just to the left of the 'NEW' link.

Other Stuff

It's possible to search pages by categories, tags and authors. Go to the Similar tab to find content based on categories and tags.

Links ending in an info icon - 🛈 - are links to internal pages (pages on this website), and they can be quick-previewed by hovering mouse over them (on large screen), or clicking them (on small screens). For example, Marion (Mug's) McConnell.
