Juggling with Unicode

Got a few tools, apps. for unicode writing, keyboard switching, transliterating.

1) http://indicime.mozdev.org/ THis is indic language script writer for firefox
2) An inspirational offspring for the indicime is http://telugutoolbar.mozdev.org/ which uses RTS(Rice Transliteration Standard) convention for transliteration.
3) http://www.tavultesoft.com/keyman/ This makes u switch keyboards [and integrate into apps.: as given in it's page]. This also has some resources for developers like developing new keyboard layouts, etc.

Logging off.....

Long time, no see


Used to get this message from chinese chat friends when I used to meet them online after a period .. A first glance made me think that the phrase is not correct grammatically and even said so to them. One of the them even defended her stand but I wasn't sure if it was correct.

I was watching 'Spiderman' for 3 time and heard this phrase when mary meets Peter Parker after a couple of weeks and says this 'Hi peter, long time, no see'
