TechnologiesA fantastic new week is starting on the Blog and the best way to kick it off is an interview with one of our fans: Siraj from India.
He is a very enthusiastic guy whose LoveMyNokia.com blog posts and tweets I really love to follow and you should too 
I’m sure you’re going to enjoy this interview as much as you did with the previous ones with João Luis, kreativtek and rodakk, CJ, Avnee, Mickyfin, Jade and the fab Michael. Can you find any similarities among them?

Who are you and what do you do? Tell us the story of your life!
Hi everyone I am Siraj 21-year-old developer and a blogger from the southern part of India. I just completed my Bachelors degree in Computer Science Engineering. I own a blog LoveMyNokia.com where I write articles and reviews about Nokia and Symbian devices. Apart from this I am working as a developer in FoneArena. And also I am contributing to Fonearena.com/blog and MeegoArena.
Wow, that’s a lot of stuff! What makes you passionate about what you do?
What makes me passionate about what I do is being a Nokia enthusiast I love reviewing the latest Nokia smartphones and writing about them. I am an active beta tester for some great applications too. I have a lot of passion for mobile application development and beta testing.
So what do you like to do on your spare time, when you are not blogging or developing?
I am a crazy gamer. Die hard fan of EA Sports FIFA series. I have some fishes and cat as pets. And I am a twitter addict too: you can follow me for fun and tech tweets @sirajsoft. I love photography I take lotta snaps with my Nokia.
Which Nokia are you using?
I own a Nokia 5800 XpressMusic and a Nokia N86. I use Nokia 5800 XpressMusic for all my music and videos, and I use Nokia N86 for photos.
And what was your very first Nokia device?
My first Nokia device was Nokia 1100. White light display loved the snake and space impact in it. Oh yeah it have a LED torch too 
So, how long have you been a Ovi/Nokia fan?
Almost ten years. I became Nokia fan when my dad got me a Nokia 1100 in 1999. From that on I am a great fan of Nokia and its products. I came to know about Ovi when I got the Nokia 5800 XpressMusic with Maps pre-installed. From that on I became a fan of Ovi. The Nokia in me pushed me to start a blog called LoveMyNokia and I am spreading the love to everyone.
What do you like most about Ovi/Nokia?
You are like friends next door. Nokia supports bloggers very much with awesome WOMWorld/Nokia. In December 2009, I applied to WOMWorld/Nokia requesting a trial device. They send me a N97 to trial with. My relationship with them is so good. Apart from that I love the developer community in ForumNokia. They get you answers for your queries in hours. Love them Keep up the Good work. I am a great fan of Symbian. I can proudly say that whatever OS out there they can’t beat the Multitasking power of Symbian.
How did you find out about this Blog?
I stumbled upon this Blog when Maps went free. From that occasion I have been following the blog. I enjoyed the Ovi people interviews: it kept me engaged with the Blog. I am happy to see my questions answered by the people from Nokia such as Minna, Sustainability Services Manager and Mark Thomas from the Connect team.
What’s your favourite thing you’ve downloaded from Store? Why?
First best thing I got from Store is Gravity. As I said before I am fond of games I downloaded all the polarbit games when they went free in the Store. I check the Store frequently for some good apps and games. My last encounter with the Store was when I downloaded the SMSblocker app. It is a cute app which keeps your sms spams away.
What were you looking for the last time you used Maps?
I just moved to Chennai. I was looking for a theater in Chennai and Ovi helped me to find one nearby.
What would you like tell us here at Ovi by Nokia?
Thanks for all your services. Those you offer are good in one or more ways. I love the Store: it has recently evolved from basic to awesome. I hope there is a gaming service in the pipeline as the previous N-Gage. We bloggers will be behind you in every step. And we will be pointing out things to make Nokia always towards its glory. Thanks a lot for interviewing me in the Blog: you are following the tagline Connecting People. Keep up the good work… Bring us more awesomeness…
