Day 2

i'll post the project plan and i'm hoping by the end of next weekend (a 3 day weekend for me) i should have a prototype up and running just to collect information.

i was thinking about calling up Ajit (newspaper) in jalandhar since they're the only major publication(that i know of) that posts gurmukhi on web on that scale(on monday). and see if they can give me pointers on this project. in return i'll help them with their mysql server problems.

also, i want to do this right. i don't just want a single punjabi word with an english word translation. i want to go the whole ten yards. i keep coming up with new things to add to the project. so i figured i take apart microsoft word dictionary and see how they did theirs.

so far i have:
word: synonyms : english translation, synonyms and a sentence
word's other form (adjective, verb and so on...)
and a sentence
because it's going to be almost impossible to go back and add all this in. it'll be a slow process (to build the dictionary) but it'll be worth the wait i think.
