Assumptions

I am quite irritated with blogger these days. But I am more irritated with google as a whole. Each time I try to go to google.com the browser is directed to google.co.in. What's wrong with that, you ask? Really nothing. It is just that google.co.in has a setting somewhere that displays everything in Hindi. And then I have to translate each page... every time.

Why do they assume that if you're accessing google from India, you must be an Indian? And why assume again that if you're an Indian in India, you'd love to see everything in Hindi?

Yet another aspect of life that is so beyond my comprehension.
