How many signs do we see everyday on average? Little boards telling us where to go, what to watch out for, where to tread carefully and a lot more. Shops, roads, cars, buildings - there is a signboard in every one of them. I work in a hospital and have for the past 18 months taken exactly the same route to the surgical ward on level 3. I am curious to see how many signs my eyes glance at everyday. There are plenty - but have I ever read them?
Let me try and recollect. 'Cosultant Obstetrician On Call', 'Maternity...???', '???Access to Theatres, ITU, CCU Only', a board on the inside of the lifts listing out all the wards and what floors they are on, 'Ward 3/4', '??Access for Staff Only', etc. I am sure that these are only a fraction of the actual number. I will pick up a dictaphone tomorrow and actually read them all into it as I walk the walk.
Oh, and on a completely different note, I completed uploading the tamil version of Wikipital. It is now live at http://ta.wikipital.com. It took awfully long to complete the translation. Thanks a lot to the guys who had already done a lot of the work for Wikipedia.
