New Improvements in the site and added few more features.

Last couple of days I have spent quite some time on the <a class="zem_slink freebase/guid/9202a8c04000641f8000000000041684" title="Website" rel="wikipedia" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Website">website design and format and performance along with moving my Hosting Provider.

Here are couple of things that you would notice immediately:

1. Site loading time is decreased substantially. I saw it loading in 5 seconds from my system.

2.

Though the users do not have any direct impact in experience but that has definitely improved the performance. I have spent quite some amount of money on this and would request the viewers to click on the <a class="zem_slink freebase/guid/9202a8c04000641f800000000042acea" title="Google" rel="homepage" href="http://google.com">Google Advertisements to help me cover it. You help is much appreciated. Other way you can help is by way of buying my photos from my <a title="My E Sop" href="http://shop.amit-agarwal.co.in" target="_blank">e-shop.
