etherfarm is the personal website and defacto prosthetic memory of Narayan Nayar. This site has been serving up marginally perceptive commentary and other useless nonsense since 2001. Sorry, there are no refunds.
etherfarm fulfills several roles in Narayan’s life. First and perhaps foremost, it gives him an opportunity to write in the third person about himself—the literary pastime of choice for aspiring narcissists worldwide. Secondly, etherfarm functions as a digital scrapbook in which Narayan’s varied and ultimately futile endeavors can be documented. Thirdly, etherfarm allows Narayan a way to practice articulating ideas in a non-academic forum, which is important because he firmly believes that academics, at least in the humanities, tend to speak a language only decipherable by Ph.Ds with secret decoder rings, and in the end, one really should remain capable of telling a joke that doesn’t use the term “heteronormative.”
etherfarm is regularly updated sporadically.
On good days, etherfarm validates XHTML 1.0 Strict and its CSS validates as well.
