One language... one world

I am sure you have wondered like I do sometimes, what would it be like to have a single language that might become the means of unifying the world.

A language that is not biased because it was created or nurtured in a particular culture or region.

A language not tainted by ethnic or other considerstions.
A language that reflects the expressiveness of Spanish while retaining the logical simplicity of the grammar of Sanskrit.
A language that would be easy to learn for everyone...

There is such a language... well at least there is a language created keeping similar ideals in mind...

It is called Esperanto.

Here is a site that gives the flavor for the language.

Believe it or not, as is the case for everything else a quick check of Wharton student body reveals that there is one person who is fluent in this language!

AJAX is cool but...

Here is a site that uses AJAX for IM www.meebo.com

AJAX is cool but other than the application to mapping I am yet to find a killer application for the technology.

Blink an eyelid..

and a semester is almost over... I cannot believe that my last post was more than 3 months ago.

While I might not get any better at writing more entries on this blog, I have something to share today.

The lyrics of a a song that I listened to today.

Perhaps I had a wicked childhood
Perhaps I had a miserable youth
But somwhere in my wicked, miserable past
There must have been a moment of truth

For here you are, standing there, loving me
Whether or not you should
So somewhere in my youth or childhood
I must have done something good

Nothing comes from nothing
Nothing ever could
So somewhere in my youth or childhood
I must have done something good

For here you are, standing there, loving me
Whether or not you should

So somewhere in my youth or childhood
I must have done something good...
