Google has clearly been the undisputed leader in internet search and has no real competition. But now, Ask.com, the revamped version of the old Ask Jeeves (they recently removed their Butler and even have a retirement page dedicated to him), throws up some competition for Google. Walt Mossberg, my favorite tech writer, reviews the new Ask.com vis-a-vis Google. Read the article in WSJ
As a kid/teenager, my only source of information to learn malayalam was Manorama Publications' Balaram, a children's fortnightly and my granny. I still vividly remember how she used to teach me the basics of malayalam whenever I come to Kerala on vacations. My granny was also a great source of amazement for me as she used malaylam proverbs or the so called "pazham chollu" every now and then. These proverbs, though small in length and use, had deep insights! Though I can read/write Malayalam today, thx to Balarama and my granny, I used to miss her proverbs a lot. But not anymore!!
