A good business opportunity for Facebook and Google

I see a good business opportunity for Facebook and Google. All over the world, all the most important news are hidden by the useless noise created by the paid media. Today, individuals use Facebook and other social media to bring out some of those news that are consciously ignored or suppressed by the media. Going one step ahead, what Facebook and Google can do in future is that they can systematically bring out those news in a much more structured manner and publish them to their users so that the real important news would come out and those who make their living out of lying will lose their relevance slowly. It may not be possible overnight though. With sustained effort, they can make it possible!

Tamil Nadu: Bad 10! (Part 1 of 2)

Image
When I wrote "Tamil Nadu: Good 10", I had promised that I would also write "Tamil Nadu: Bad 10". Here is a Tamilian who keeps his promise. :) I was so proud of being a Tamilian when I wrote the last post. I feel so ashamed of being one when I write this one. I always like sincere introspection. Just exaggerating the strengths and turning a blind eye to or justifying the weaknesses just gives a momentary and illusory self-satisfaction, which wouldn't help anyone in the long run (be it as an individual or as a group!). So, it's very important for groups as well as individuals to be aware of their problems as well. That's what would help them rectify their problems before it becomes too late, which is what would help them realize their true potential at the end of the day. Awareness of the problem is the first step in any rectification process. This exercise is an attempt towards that. I know you are growing impatient. It's always interestin

Classical Tamil?

Please understand the purpose of the post correctly. Before you start reading this, you may have to forget all the discussions going on around races and racism in India in the last few weeks. It's not on those lines. This was written sometime back with a different purpose, so please don't mix this up with such things. There is always a complaint that Tamils are excessively proud about their language. I agree. It surely doesn't make them superior to others. If your language is older than someone else's or if it has more literature than someone else's, it is just a fact and there is nothing to feel superior about it. You can still feel proud about it, not excessively though. What makes them feel so? They truly believe that their language is an asset for them. The reasons are many. Antiquity of the language, the amount of literature they have preserved, strength of its grammar, vocabulary (though can't be compared with Sanskrit!), the love all their kings and

Cricket, Population and Nation

Image
Right from childhood, when I watch Cricket matches, I pray for India to win. Especially major tournaments and world cups, I always wanted India to win at “any” cost. Why? Yes, you are right. It’s because I am in Indian. That’s not all. There was another reason why I always wanted India to win all matches and tournaments. What is that? Unlike any other nation, a win by India makes an incomparably huge population happy. I always used to say that India had the highest population among Cricket playing nations so India had to win. You don’t have to be intelligent to know this fact because we all know China doesn’t play Cricket. But, I always wanted to look at the exact numbers. Finally, I had some time today to look at it and come out with some great (!) conclusions. Here you go… Australia 22,567,780 New Zealand 4,393,500 Sri Lanka 21,513,990 Pakistan 174,578,558 England 49,138,831 South Africa 4
