Introduction

So I've been contemplating having a blog that just tells people whats-going-on. I sometimes think of having a blog post about an incident and all. These posts dont really fit in with either of my previous blogs: Literary Reliefs - for creative writing and wacko things inspired from not-so-wacko incidents, and My Thought Experiments - a convoluted sorta dissertation.
This blog is meant to be simple. A Blog. A way for people to have a voyeuristic view into whats happening on my side during the times I so choose to blog about incidents. The need for this is brought about very sharply by the trip to Orlando for the ACM ICPC WF.

On the naming of the URL, I had a bit of a hard time. I like the term "journalizing" to describe the entire act of describing things that happened and all, but such a broad based term I felt sure would be taken. I thought of certain other variations of prad: pradst etc, which didn't really fit in completely enough. I also came across Proof, but I felt that the blog is more something to do with me, rather than something to do as a "representative of the team" or anything of that sort. pradioof combines the prad trademark (:P) with the Team Proof motivation for the blog.
