A Few Quotable Quotes

  - "When there is a will, there is a way!"


- "Life is never about the people who act true in front of you, It is always about the people who remain true behind your back..." - well, watch your back ;)

Anonymous/Anonymity - Just got my confusion waived.

As I am a guy from an "non-English" origin and my mother language is Urdu, I had just heard or read that Anonymous means "someone with Unknown/Hidden Identity". But I was not sure about the completeness of the meanings of the word Anonymous that I assumed to be its meanings.

I think I remember looking up this word long ago in the Oxford's Advance Learners' Dictionary. But it was years ago & ever since I had not used this word myself, except seeing this word on the internet and magazines with the context like: "someone did something anonymously" or "Do you want to go Public or stay Anonymous to everyone?" kinda sorts.

Well, i just dug for it on Wikipedia. Wikipedia's page for the word "Anonymous" does not give you any definition for the word. Instead, It gives you the definition of the word "Anonymity", stating:

"Anonymity, the state where a person's name and other personally identifying information is not known."

According to Wikipedia's "Anonymity" page, "Anonymous" means:

"........ In colloquial use, anonymous typically refers to a person, and often means that the personal identity, or personally identifiable information of that person is not known. ........."

Interesting fact is that Anonymity's page gives definition for the word Anonymous, while page for the word Anonymous gives you the one for Anonymity.

I dunno if it makes any sense.

By the way, I don't want you to get overwhelmed with the loads of information or get you bored. See for yourself within these Two Links provided below, if you can find the information made available there on Wikipedia as pleasurable & fun as I found it while reading it.

Visit Wikipedia home page. You will be able to see the Languages categorised based on the Number of Resources available for that set of languages, right below the search field provided.

Each language's name is a link to that language's Main Page, landing you on a central resource for that language.

English is within the Languages' Set on top with 100 000+ (Hundreds of Thousands) resources available on the site. Meaning the most of the resources available there are within these languages.

Urdu, my first language, is within the Second Large set of languages, based on the resources available with 10 000+ (Tens of Thousands) figure.

Oh, I think I have gone too far, foolishly. Have I really? ..... Okay! Cutting it short ...... :D

* I have manipulated the CSS and XHTML tags to get the (=>) arrow vertically in the center of the Image with required margin settings. I've also wrote the 2 (two) words in Text Form, from Urdu language: " صفحہ " means "Page" & " اول " means "First". Thus literally meaning "First Page". Urdu is written and read from RIGHT To LEFT direction.

Looking forward to your comments. Thank you.
