Yahoo Goes Super Local! Supports 8 Indian Languages
2011-12-08 14:15:00
After almost 5 years, since Yahoo Mail was made available in Hindi, it has today announced support for 7 more Indian Languages apart from Hindi. Yahoo is facing imminent threat from Microsoft, has made Yahoo Mail available in 8 local languages namely, Tamil, Hindi, Kannada, Telugu, Malayalam, Bengali, Marathi, and Gujarati. This is just a subset of Yahoo’s revamped Global rollout across 70 markets worldwide, 27 of which are simultaneous, including 22 new languages, in 16 new countries. The Yahoo Website is already available in Hindi, Marathi and Tamil. Users who wish to switch over to the new languages, can simply head over to Account Settings of their Yahoo Profile, add their preferred language and hit the ‘Save’ button. We think that initially at least,  Yahoo, who fiercely protects its users, should have made the language switch accessible on the main landing page. Going local is vital for reconnect with the users feels Nitin Mathur, Senior Director, Marketing, Yahoo! Ind...

Are You Ready For Local Indian Language Domain Names?
2011-11-29 08:25:00
India, being the 2nd largest pocket of people in the world has immense potential. While it already has one of the largest populations of netizens in the world, there is still a lot of scope for growth. One barrier to people using the internet has been their inability or discomfort with using the English Language. Yahoo already offers its content in 6 Local Indian Languages. A lot of Apps too have recognized the need to reach out to Vernacular users. According to the Centre for Development of Advanced Computing (C-DAC), who recently held a workshop on IDNs or International Domain Names in an effort to spread awareness, Internet Domain Names may soon be in Indian Languages. The Indian Government and the ICANN have both taken it upon themselves to push for local language domain names on the worldwide web. The workshop, while spreading awareness, had put special emphasis on promoting Kannada. Tulika Pandey from the Department of Information Technology said, “In the past, IDNs we...

Local Life at Rawai Beach
2011-11-29 01:04:00
Last month, on the final day of my parents holidays, we took a little drive to the south end of Phuket island, carefully watching the weather as the low season delivered up a day of sunshine and showers. We got to Rawai beach in bright sunshine, had not really planned to stop there, but there were dark clouds to the west, so we figured why not take a little walk around Rawai. The beach here is not a swimming beach, it's very rocky and shallow. Rawai is good for food - most of the beach road is lined with small restaurants - and from Rawai you can get a speedboat or longtail boat to nearby islands such as Koh Bon, Coral Island, Racha Yai island. We did a trip last year from Rawai to explore the small island of Koh Kaew Yai which lies off the tip of Cape Phromthep and is a place of pilgrimage for Buddhists - there is a big Buddha statue on the island and a giant "Buddha footprint". Legend says that Buddha stepped onto the island before coming to the mainland of Phuket, where he first...
Kin Dee Restaurant - Local Food in the Jungle!
2011-11-20 10:26:00
During my recent holidays in October 2011 when my parents visited from the UK, we had the chance to try quite a few new restaurants that had been "on my list". On the day we visited Kin Dee, the weather was not so nice, one of those low season days that has no sun. The rain seemed rather patchy, we figured that if we just drove north we might find a rain-free area! So we had no particular plan for where to eat.. just drive and see where we end up. The east coast seemed rather wet just north of Phuket Town so we headed further and drove through heavy rain with kids moaning about hunger in the back of the car ... we though to head over the bridge into Phang Nga and eat at Samchong Seafood which is a favourite of ours. But as we reached the far north of Phuket I remembered Kin Dee, although could not remember exactly where to find it! We kept eyes open for a sign .... and finally just before the Tha Chat Chai police checkpoint we saw "KIN DEE LOCAL FOOD" - did a u-turn just before the ...

Is Your Local Playground Safe?
2011-06-29 20:44:00
Remember what playgrounds used to be like? Head-splitting see-saws, foot-mangling merry-go-rounds, and metal slides that could deliver third degree burns to the back of your legs? Not to mention swings with chain links just wide enough to pinch your fingers, concrete surfaces, and disease-ridden sandboxes. Did you ever wonder why fun just ain't what it used to be?Aislin loves hanging out at the playground near her school. She made it her personal mission in life to conquer the monkey bars this year. So much so that she spent a few weeks with blisters on her hands and now has hardened callouses! At five years old she has hands like a teamster. It's far for us to drive just to play...

They broke into their regular programming of NCIS LA immediately after our sirens went off and continued to do so often enough to alert viewers of the need to seek shelter if they lived in the warning area.
