Google Docs in Indian Languages (Including Tamil)
Google Docs now available in Indian languages such as Hindi, Bengali, Gujarati, Kannada, Malayalam, Marathi, Oriya, Tamil, and Telugu. I’m so glad Google has given its concern over Indian languages especially beyond Hindi.
To activate its new interface, sign in to Google Docs, click ‘Settings’, and select the interface language you prefer.
I checked the built in Tamil spell checker of the Google Docs. It’s hopeless; don’t rely on that spell checker!
As I suspected earlier, it seems soon we can expect more products from google in Tamil and other Indian languages.

Sri Lanka to Import Electricity from India
Energy crisis has reached its peak in Sri Lanka. Day by day need for energy in Sri Lanka is escalating, but the supply is insufficient. Nowadays Sri Lankans are enjoying electricity bills (??). In whole Asia, Sri Lankans are paying highest bills than any other nations. Sri Lankan government is seeking for several alternatives and come up with several ways to solve this problem out.
- Coal Plant
- Import Electricity
Government has taken initiations to build Coal power plant in Trincomalee and Nuraicholai. It is a long term project so we can’t be expecting it to start and work from tomorrow. Also it’s strongly opposed by environmentalist that it’ll cause harm to the environment, but do we have an alternative other than accepting this project?
Latest hot news in energy sector of Sri Lanka is Electricity import from India. Indian government has agreed to offer power from Madurai, Tamil Nadu. Cables under the sea will be built and reception center are expected to build in Anuradhapura and Mannar. Government says it’ll bring down the cost for the electricity production. Feasible studies are undergoing and constructions are expected to start by next month.
I’m pretty sure; India will love this initiation as they can boost their influence in Sri Lanka.
Beautiful isn’t it?
Your friends are getting married. You watch them with enthusiasm, and you talk to yourself, “Beautiful isn’t it?” Let me tell you the truth, for lot of people marriage is like sticking your tongue on a frozen flagpole. It looks like fun when you see friends doing it, so you say: “I’ll give it a try just once”. Next thing you know you stuck, full of regret. Praying to god “please get me out of this with my dignity…
It does not have to be like that my friends… It does not have to be like that.
After meeting the rite person in the first place, well my friends that is up to you.
From that first, destined meeting…to the sweet innocence of the first date.
The first time you say “I love you”.
She didn’t hear you clearly and she asks “what did you say?”
And you say… “What a view”!!!
Pay Per Post
Pay Per Post known as PPP is a great tool to make revenue online. I was recommended by one of my friends and I gave try to payperpost. It seems cool so far. I think I can make good amount of money through this web site.
Basically you need to write a review on a product. If your review is accepted by the producer through PPP site then you got the money from them. Very simple and interesting huh?
Simply go to payperpost.com and sign up for an account. They’ll review your blog and approve it. Even my blog got approved so I don’t think your blog will get reject. Once your blog is accepted you can start writing about the products listed there.
When you’re writing about the products make sure you include the links they provide. You may first write about PPP site and its benefits to spread out the word of good will. I was browsing through the profile of PPP writers and I found that there are some people who earned 50$ per day, and there are some people who earned around 1300$ per month. If you can write a convincing article then you may become a full time blogger with the help of this tool.
Then why are you waiting? Go and pick your account
Good bye Clarke
Clarke lived in Sri Lanka from 1956 until his death in 2008, having emigrated there when it was still called Ceylon, first in Unawatuna on the south coast, and then in Colombo. Clarke held citizenship of both the UK and Sri Lanka.He was an avid scuba diver and a member of the Underwater Explorers Club. Living in Sri Lanka afforded him the opportunity to visit the ocean year-round. It also inspired the locale for his novel The Fountains of Paradise in which he described a space elevator. This, he believed, ultimately will be his legacy, more so than geostationary satellites, once space elevators make space shuttles obsolete.
He had 3 wishes, one of his wishes is to see lasting peace in Sri Lanka as soon as possible! 
Good bye Clerk. We Sri Lankans miss you!
Tibet Should be FREE
Japan, China, Singapore, these are the three nations that I admire in Asia along with India. These are the nations that showed the world, what Asians can do? We can do better than you! Singapore is a tiny nation which is rejected by Malaysia, but now today it is one of the most powerful economies in the world. It’s showing the courage and willingness and commitment of Singaporeans. In the other hand Japan, as we all know, developed into a developed nation after the devastating World War II.
India is another nation which is a role model for accepting and enjoying the diversity. I know there are some ethnical issues in India, but compare to countries like Sri Lanka they are far far better.
China is one of the super powers in our region and has the potential to challenge any nation in the world. Especially Chinese authorities have a good relationship with Sri Lankan government. Even during Indo-china war Sri Lankan government supported Chinese. I always admired this nation, and its Iron ruling policy. I talked with many Chinese people. They all say “I have no issues living it China. I have everything and I’m fine out there. I like Chinese government”.
So it seems that Chinese people like the government but not the western authorities.
These days burning issue in CNN and BBC is the riots in Tibet. What is actually happening in Tibet? I was reading several materials and I found that china invaded this small nation. The leader Dalai Lama has flown to India. New Delhi welcomed him with two hands.
Now Chinese government blaming that Dalai Lama is directing the riots in Tibet using his cliques. Also Chinese government saying that for the unity of China, Taiwan and Tibet is important for them. Still china has no influence in Taiwan. Taiwan which is enjoying the company of USA is so far safe from super power China.
Here my point is, if set of people or an ethnic group doesn’t want to live with the mother nation then what is the point of keeping them using control? It will lead to the development of up going riots.
TIBET SHOULD BE A FREE INDEPENDENT NATION

BEOWULF – Review
Yesterday I was watching this movie and after first two minutes I realized that I was watching a animation movie. Wow.. Wow.. Wow.. What an imagination? They have created new dimension for the Animation movies.
Story is all about Demons and a mighty hero who was concurred that demon. You can find almost all the basic elements of an English movie in this film such as a beautiful monster, ugly monster, and beautiful girls, stunning fights!!! Etc.
In the beginning story is full of action but in the end, it’s very sentimental and it’s trying to show the guilty conscious of the King who concurred the monster. They say what goes around comes around!, as it says King finally accept the reality and pay the price for his self-importance and impatient for power.
I think it’s a good food for those who love animation movies, and it’ll be a fantastic adventure story for kids. Though it may attract kids, there are some scenes that may disturb kids. It’s rated as PG 13 in USA.
All in all, it brought me a nice movie experience. Hope you’ll have the same experience with this film!!!
Send Free SMS to Mobitel (Lanka)
Image via Wikipedia
Update: 17 Aug 2009. This method is no longer working for mobitel
You may wonder how these people send free SMS to mobitel. It’s not a wonder or a magic. There are some companies offering email to SMS service. In Sri Lanka only Mobitel is offering this service.
What you need to do is simply send a mail to phoneNumber@sms.mobitel.lk. For example, if you wanna send a SMS to 071-5373891 then simply send a mail to 94715373891@sms.mobitel.lk!
If you know PHP or ASP or Perl then you can use this concept to create a widget that can send SMS to user.
You can get phone number as an input and then if you can generate an email as I described above then you have created the widget. I have already created a widget to send free SMS using PHP. If you need the source code simply drop me a mail at mayu3g AT Gmail DOT com.
Unfortunately other operators such as Dialog, Hutch doesn’t offer such service!!! If you need to send them mail then you need to buy a SMS gateway, which is very expensive.
