Subtitle fun...

எப்போ Hindi movie rent பண்ணாலும், 'subtitle' option இருக்கான்னு பார்த்துட்டு தான் எடுக்குற வழக்கம். ஏன்னா நம்ம hindi புலமை அப்படி. ஆனா, சில தமிழ்ப் படங்களை 'subtitle' க்காகவே பாக்கிறது..! அந்த ஆனந்தமே தனி! அதிலும் பாடல்கள் .... !

Here is one of my favorite tamil songs, 'subtitled'....

எங்க, டக்-குன்னு சொல்லுங்க பாப்போம் இது என்ன பாட்டுன்னு....

Dear with deer’s eyes.
Honey with honey cheeks.

Shall I kiss you? I’ll
offer you many things.

Enjoy like a bee that
takes honey from jasmine.

Dear with deer’s eyes.
Honey with honey cheeks.

I’ll tie golden chain
with pearls & wait for you.

I’ll be waiting for you
after dressing up myself.

Why do you starve?
Why don’t you touch me?

If I touch you, won’t
the milk & sweet flow?

As your youthfulness wait for my touch
..

Dear with deer’s eyes.
Honey with honey cheeks.

Why is my uncle shying to come near me?

Permit me to keep you
on grass & to kiss you.

As I struggle with my
lust in evening time…

As all the places
change as my bed room…

I’ve given you my consent
with sugarcane juice.

Dear with deer’s eyes.
Honey with honey cheeks.

Shall I kiss you? I’ll
offer you many things.

Enjoy like a bee that
takes honey from jasmine.

Dear with deer’s eyes.
Honey with honey cheeks.

தமிழா, தமிழா!

ஆத்துத் தண்ணி ஊத்துப் போல வரும் தமிழ் வலைப்பதிவுகளைத் தமிழ் மணத்தில் பார்த்ததில் இருந்து எனக்கும் தமிழில் எழுதனும்னு ஆசை. ஆனா சரியான 'how to' கிடைக்காமத் திண்டாடி முகமூடி அண்ணாச்சிக்கு ஒரு மெயிலைத் தட்ட, அவரு காசி அண்ணாச்சியோட இந்த அருமையான பக்கத்தைக் கை காட்ட... இதோ....

So, blame it on Mugamoodi Srikanth annachi! :-)

பாக்கலாம், எந்த அளவுக்கு எனக்கு தமிழில் டைப் பண்ண பொறுமை இருக்குன்னு..!

Thanks a lot Mugamoodi Srikanth and Kasi.

Unix philosophy

Interesting software development philosophy based on the Unix O/S development experience.

"Write programs that do one thing and do it well.
Write programs to work together.
Write programs to handle text streams, because that is a universal interface"

Kosmix and Paritrana...

"If there's anyone itching to take on Google, it is the two Indian guys who went to Stanford with Google co-founders Larry Page and Sergey Brin. "....

Anand Rajaraman and Venky Harinarayan are launching their ambitious start up Kosmix to compete with Google.

Unlike Google, Kosmix would narrow the search by category. Rather than simply entering the ‘key word’ in the search box and getting some unrelated results, user can select appropriate category or topic of the search along with the keyword and get almost closer and relevant results.

And about Paritrana..

It is a new Indian political party started by five IITians, all in their 20’s.

Firt thing first. I’m impressed by the party's ideology:

“Responsibility is proportional to abilities. Those with superior abilities naturally bear more responsibility and should come forward to change the pitiful condition that the nation is facing. Everyone must do what one should.”

I was trying to find more info about this party and their founders.. and was amazed that there have been lots of discussions on this topic in the blogworld already. There is an interview with Paritrana founders too.

Sounds very impressive and they seem to be on the right direction too.. BP (hehe…bench periyasamy..) wishes them all the best..!
