Technical advancement in India is at its peak. Muchaad's the famous paanwala; Jaishankar Tiwari's online paan shop http://www.paan.com/index.html is a living example of this progress. This website enlightens one about the various facets of the paan industry ranging from its history to the ingredients use din them. Not only that, you can now place the order for your kind of paan on the net. Have you ever wondered how to play paan games? Guess what you can do that too on muchaad's website.
Having a paan selling website in itself is an amazing progress in the technical world. What would be the effect to have our websites in Indian local languages? India is a highly multilingual country with a wide range of languages spoken throughout the country. India is a developing country and most of it comes under the rural zone, thus English language is not widespread. This is a minor roadblock on the path of achieving complete technical progress. This setback can be overcome by having domains, keyboards, content etc in local languages.
India has unmatched accomplishment in the filed of creating and showcasing localized content through the cable services. Now it's time for the internet to achieve similar success.
Network Solutions have just made a public announcement of providing domain names in local languages of India . This opens a new avenue for websites in Indian official languages like
- Hindi
- Gujarati
- Bengali
- Oriya
- Malayalam
- Marathi
- Telugu
- Tamil
- Kannada
English will no longer dominate the internet domain in India .
India being such a big country it is not very easy to create content for the huge population that speaks incomprehensible range of languages but these languages were neglected till now. Webdunia ( Indore based) was the first Hindi portal and the language software was provided by the government run C-DAC (Center for Development of Advanced Computing) centre.
Most of India is not fluent in English; the local language market is going to bring a revolution in the world of internet technology. Domain names, content, keyboards etc in local languages will make possible the growth of IT knowledge to every nook and corner of India .
