Digital Library of India

Just noticed this entry on WorldChanging about the Digital Library of India. Quote from the site "The mission is to create a portal for the Digital Library of India which will foster creativity and free access to all human knowledge. As a first step in realizing this mission, it is proposed to create the Digital Library with a free-to-read, searchable collection of one million books, predominantly in Indian languages, available to everyone over the Internet". Cool!

Space travel account

The most awesome thing happened today and it's all over the place. SpaceShipOne successfully landed after a brief visit to space. Congratulations to the Scaled Composites people! Commercial space travel is looking closer than ever.
Time to start a savings account for the ticket :-)

Back to blogging

I haven't blogged for a while and now I'm back. I traveled to Seattle and to Chicago over the last two weeks to visit family and friends. Logged back into blogger today and was surprised to find an invitation to join Gmail. So, now I have a 1 GB Gmail account. Cool! Dunno how much I will use it. Let's see.
