From Hong Kong International Airport

One of the world's largest airport, yet charges for Wi-Fi. But we can always find a loose network any where ;-) Just arrived here from San Francisco thru Cathay Pacific. Long [13.5 hrs] and tiring trip, but nice. It's nothing like going back to home land :-)

taken a picture, but no chord to transfer it to net, will update here once I reach home.

next will try to login from Singapore :-)

My new homepage

A peek at what the MSN guys are researching about. All in one place, amazing collection of information from various sources. Now the next thing to add is just a bit of personalization :-)

But first, an introduction to MSN search, if you are not able to answer the questions at
start.com :-)

Indic in Windows XP

In track to tap the market of first time computer users in India, Microsoft rolls out Windows XP in Hindi. As of now it will be available as OEM package and not off the shelf. If you already have the Windows XP in English and want to experience the Hindi interface, I suggest you try the Windows XP - Hindi LIP. LIP - Language Interface pack lets you experience the Windows XP in a different language.

If you are used to MUI - Multilingual User Interface, LIP is quite different from that. Make sure you read, What is the difference between LIP and MUI?

You can also try the other Indian LIPs
Windows XP - Tamizh LIP
Windows XP - Marathi LIP

If you love to type in Indian languages, you can try installing IME - Input Method Editors for the specific languages.
Hindi - IME
Tamizh - IME
Gujarati - IME
Bengali - IME

If you are a developer and would like to develop Indian language applications, Bhasha India is your one stop place for resources.
