Spread the word

I just realised: The word passion has the letter 't' silent ! The word actually is pass-it-on !
Passion = Pass it on

I dont know if its original or not.. I find it quite liberating though.
Big deal, you'll ask. Well, if you really love something, then you inspire others to believe in it. Its contagious and infectious. Spread your passion around. You might be doing something great to others..

Crores of millions

This is one thing that I leaves me confused.. how many zeroes in a crore ? How many millions in one crore ? Just for the record,

10 million = 1 crore

10 lakh = 1 million
3 crore would be written as 3,00,00,000
Number of zeros in a million - 6, a billion - 9, a trillion - 12

Wiki

I did a classsroom project which was based on the concept of wiki, the collaborative, based-on-trust website. I came across quite a few of them lately. I think they are going to be very focussed and very useful ofrspecific short-term purposes and some limited edition purposes too..
a nice wiki url : http://wiki.helpware.net/

Translation

I was browsing for a tutorial in flash and came across a french page. the google automatic translation feature, in an instant crossed language barriers to give me what i wanted.. just reading the pages from a european or a japanese server makes me high these days. its the translation technology that will help us to know other worlds on our good'ol earth.

Prefix

I am doing some reaseach on Unicode fonts for a project of mine. Seems its quite an interesting thing. One can view any webpage of any language with just one font installed. With the internet connecting people from different partsof the world, it should also be able to make easy for us to know about what people from other countries express and how they express it. Translators will be one of the next big things for information sharing purposes.

ps: UNI is a nice prefix. It make both UNIversal as well as UNIque, UNIverse as well as UNIt, any others ?

Wreath for Film

Did you notice ? The foreign movie trailers have got this symbol

when it wins an award. I didnt see this in the earlier trailers. Must be a new global way for recognizing an award winning feature..
