Hi there! Thanks for your interest in knowing more about me! What you’re about to read is the 648th revision of this About page. Being a passionate writer, I find it most difficult to write about myself. But I’ll give it another go and try to keep it concise.

My name is Aminul Islam Sajib, but I typically go by A.I. Sajib. That seems to make some people think that I’m an Artificial Intelligence, which serves me a purpose: I get to get away with being a robotic person. I don’t socialize well, I’m introverted, and A.I. is the perfect cover.

I’m a passionate blogger. If you Google my name, you’ll see numerous blogs with my posts. I write/wrote for a number of blogs, local newspapers and IT magazines in this part of the world. I live in Dhaka, Bangladesh. And I’m a geek. I primarily specialize in writing about technology, social media and related events. I have a habit of making tech sound easier even for the most basic people.

Aside from things I can do from in front of the computer, I also enjoy traveling and taking a lot of photographs. I do not necessarily take good photos, but I do enjoy taking photographs of people. I shoot events on behalf of media and blogs. I also shoot a lot of portraits of people. Check out my photography profile from the links at the bottom of this page.

Work-wise, I’m a Happiness Engineer at Automattic — that’s the company that makes WordPress.com, along with several other useful products like Jetpack and Gravatar. My day-to-day work involves helping out people with their blogs at WordPress.com. I love doing this as it helps me make the process of writing and publishing easier for the most average people. Plus, I get to read a lot of great content on WordPress.com every day!

Study-wise, I’m currently doing a major in English but I’m thinking of moving to Media Studies and Journalism as journalism is an area of deep interest to me. I love writing, and I love informing. So it makes sense to study journalism.

If you have any questions, comments, suggestions, or just a hello, don’t hesitate to knock me at the contact page. I’ll get back to you for sure.

  3. May be what I am doing is a little bit good but I am not satisfied with what I can and what I do. Because I think I am still not so well in English and I cannot express a lot of things in English.

  4. well done sajib! in the year of 15 you started a blog, that is really impressive. keep writing, reading other sites or blogs, and of course your main text books. Never set higher priority to this blogging, computer and internet than your main study.

    Good Luck!

  12. Nice blog, Sajib! You are doing a great job at such a young age, mashaAllah. Read a lot of blogs and papers in English and you should be able to develop your writing skills (I think you are already doing very well). English is my third language, so just like yourself, I am in the process of learning and improving.

    Thank you for visiting my blog.

    Wow, I am impressed! You clearly have a talent for writing— the dedication to pursue it is special.

    Thanks for leading me here. I am not much of a techie— I just know enough to make good PPTs and play games on the net. I love to read about people, though— this personal site is the one that interests me more. I will be coming back for more. =D

  22. Sajib – I’m very impressed at what you’re doing at 15 no less! When I was that age, a LONG time ago :), the last thing I was thinking about was writing.

    Your English is quite good for a second language. As others have said, keep writing and keep reading others’ blogs and you’ll improve.

  28. Sajib, you are an inspiration. So many of my American friends have no idea what is beyond our country, and hardly anyone speaks another language besides English. I know how difficult it is to write in a second language (I speak French, and a little bit of Spanish, too), but your English really is good enough that you could do well in America.

    Keep up the good work, and good luck with improving your English!

  29. Sounds like you’ve had quite the writing career already. If you’re committed to writing in English you may want to have someone you know who writes English well to look over your writing and offer suggestions. For instance, the word “stuff” is singular and plural, so you don’t ever need to add an “s” to stuff to make it plural. In general though your English writing is good. Keep trying and I’m sure you’ll do well.

I noticed that you’re an odesk.com contractor. I have had great experience working with an odesk.com contractor in India. She was fantastic. Next time, I’ll look you up, too.

    1. Hi Martin! Thanks for stopping by my blog! Yes, I’ve been blogging for a long time now. I love doing it.

      As for oDesk, there are contractors of all sorts. I’m glad whoever you had got you satisfied by their work. I’ve seen clients totally dissatisfied, which is because of a bad contractor, and then blaming the whole oDesk marketplace as cheap unworthy people.

      I’ll be glad to work with you. Hope you’ll come back often and read my posts.

  68. My favorite Comic that I’ve read that Mike have worked on is Superman/Batman, Vol. 2: Supergirl , that I felt in love with his art style. Mike is one of many comic artist that gives me the motivation to draw and keep on drawing to improve as well as helping me breaking away from manga style. I shall remember Michael Turner as a DC Legend. God Speed.
