Google knows that I am Indian..

Filed under: Fun,Rantings,Web — Vinay @ 7:33 pm

I logged into Gmail today and noticed this small icon on the left hand side of the rich editing option, a small icon showing the letter “a” in my native tounge (Telugu).. Me being the curious kind, clicked on it and found out that I can now compose e-mails in multiple Indian languages (Hindi, Tamil, Kannada, Telugu & Malyalam) by typing in English. Something that Google calls “transliteration“. Here are some screenshots of me using the feature

Pretty cool.. but scary too :) that Google guessed I am Indian.

HOW TO : Redirect default home page on Jboss

Filed under: Technology,Web — Vinay @ 8:43 pm

If you want to redirect the default home page on Jboss (which has links to the Jboss site and also the JMX Console), you can do it by editing the index.html file in

$JBOSS_HOME/server/$INSTANCE/deploy/jboss-web.deployer/ROOT.war.

The $INSTANCE is the mode you are running Jboss in (default, all, messaging etc).
