Welcome and more …

May 26th, 2009 by Habib in Firefox, Yamli

Welcome to the official blog of Yamli. We are very excited about the launch of this blog and look forward to share with you our products, thoughts and hear your feedback.

About a year and a half ago, we launched Yamli with the vision of empowering the Arabic language and users on the Web and thanks to your support and suggestions we are inching forward towards our goal, and we would like to thank you for that !

We also want to take this opportunity to present a preview of our new gadget, the Yamli Firefox toolbar. Many of you have asked for an easy way to type Arabic with Yamli on any site, including email, social networks and instant messengers. Thanks to your feedback and suggestions we have been working on providing this functionality through our most recent gadget.

The Yamli toolbar enables users to type Arabic on any site with a simple click of a button. The main trick was to get it working right with Rich Text Editors, which are usually found in webmail sites such as Gmail, Hotmail, Yahoo and others.  The toolbar also allows search and provides comprehensive search results.

We also thought it would be a cool idea to add a Facebook and Twitter feature so that you can directly update your status from the toolbar.

You can download the toolbar preview from here. This is the first version and we’d love to hear your feedback and thoughts on what we can add or do to improve on it. What do you think ?

    Will please make it support to write Arabic in MSN ?

  8. Sulaiman Says:

    well, I found the SmartArabic keyboard for MSN on http://www.msgpluslive.net/scripts/uploads/Arabzi-1.0.plsc

    but I still think you can develop an offline using input software .in fact ,the most populated Chinese input software support to input both Chinese and English intelligently …It’s a big hit in China ..
