Subscribe in a reader | Subscribe by Email Last weekend, I was at a 3-in-1 function organised by the Malaysian Tamil Writers Association:
– introduce (free) Tamil short stories in iPad and iPhone, created by Muthu Nedumaren (creator of Sellinam)
– launch of Tamil Valthu (Praise song)
– launch of revamped Tamil Writers website.
I managed to catch the afternoon session which started with Muthu’s talk on social networks, creation of Tamil content in Apple platform (iPhone and iPad) and the need for writers to move on to the next step which is Web 2.0 and beyond. It was an interesting session which was peppered with facts and figures on Facebook usage etc.

The Song was launched by Dato’ Kanthan (ex-assemblyman). It was written by poet Sini Naina Muhammed. The poet shared his story on how the song was created. It was quite interesting as he explained about how he made changes, and the inspiration he received.
