Can't post in Devnagri - I am not loving it.
by Sukhdev Singh 08 Feb '08

08 Feb '08

Dear Friends, Some of you might be seeing garbage in my recent email - "Evolving Web Culture of Hindi Language". These garbage characters are actually Devnagri Script in Unicode. Perhaps digital media will take some more time when we would be able to express ourselves in our own Indian languages. But are we ready with tools of Information Storage and Retrieval of future generation (Online / Digital) literature in Indian Languages? --Sukhdev Singh.

Evolving Web Culture of Hindi Language - �~@~\हिन�~Mद�~@ब�~Mल�~I�~W�~Mस ड�~I�~_ �~U�~Iम�~@~]

Date: Thu, 7 Feb 2008 11:24:57 +0530 From: Sukhdev Singh <esukhdev(a)gmail.com> Popularity of Blogs (चिट्ठा) in India is really picking up and giving the much required boost to Indian Languages and scripts. Just take a note of hindiblogs.com: .." <http://blog.sukhdevsingh.com/>भाषा राष्ट्र की वह शक्ति है, जिसके माध्यम से वह आंतरिक संवाद क़ायम करता है। व्यक्ति राष्ट्र की इकाई है और ब्लॉग व्यक्ति की आवाज़ है। इन दोनों का समन्वय ही हिन्दी ब्लॉग जगत् है। "हिन्दीब्लॉग्स डॉट कॉम" इसी हिन्दी ब्लॉग जगत् को समर्पित है। यहाँ पर आप हिन्दी चिट्ठा संसार में हो रही नवीन हलचलों का अनुभव कर सकते हैं और हिन्दी के ब्लॉग्स की नयी प्रविष्टियों को यहाँ पढ़ सकते हैं।<http://www.filmyblogs.com/hindi.jsp> ".. And not just Blogs, people now express themselves in local languages. Take the example of Hindi Bhasha eGroups on Google Groups (हिन्द भाषा ई-समूह<http://groups.google.com/group/hindibhasha>) having around four hundred plus members. Easy to use tools like http://uninagari.kaulonline.com/ are around to help people like me to try out typing in Dev Nagari. Information Professionals will now have to rethink on developing skills and tools for managing online as well as printed knowledge being produced in Indian Languages and Scripts. -- सुखदेव (Sukhdev Singh) NIC.
