Good bye mGinger, Welcome SMS2India

mGinger finds a new competitor – sms2India.co.in I am seriously excited about the way their business proposal runs.

1. Referral signup – if you need a referral Signup id: xtremevin@yahoo.com
2. More earnings, because of referral signup
3. More specific categories of advertisement to choose – helps the advertiser as the customer chooses specified advertisement. (targeted customers)
4. Better payout options (paypal also)

This is what the site says

You receive 10 SMS per day.

Your 10 Friends receive the same SMS.

Each of their 10 friends receive the same SMS.

You earn Rs. 6882 per month.

You get 20p for each SMS you receive.

You get again 20 p for each SMS your friend receive.

And you get again 20 p for each SMS your friend’s friend receive.

After signing up with SMS2India.co.in I really feel bad about the way signup happens with sms2India.co.in because you are about to expose your email id for your referrals. I guess they need to find a way to have some number or alpha numerical characters as referral id. I am sure they will change in due course of time.

Currently there is no way to keep track of your network or your earnings, I guess we just entered the Kitchen (should be developing the software).

Anyway I am excited about SMS2India.co.in because they could launch the new product in a months time just after mGinger.
Wishing you all the best for the SMS2India team.

So why wait signup for SMS2India.co.in and incase you need the referral id: xtremevin@yahoo.com
Start earning money today. Let us hope atleast SMS2India.co.in will send us mobile advertisement as SMS.

mGinger – mobile SMS nuisance

Do you want to get paid for the SMS which you receive on your mobile?
Here are the ad providers, who would send SMS on your mobile and you could eventually earn money for viewing and deleting the SMS.
Currently the site says

How much money can I make?
Ads you receive per day X
Friends you refer X
Friends each of your friend refers X
there is a calculate button for you to check the revenue you earn per month.

I have been wondering how many of people have been shouting at their own Mobile service providers to stop sending SMS and a new product comes out of the shelf in offering money to receive SMS on your mobile. Well surely mGinger would be productivity killer.

I am sure it is gonna be hit, and I see the potential customers would be the students crowd and you can expect your friends and spam messages asking you to signup.

Thank you mGinger for filling up our mailbox. Wishing the mGinger team a best of luck.

Red Swoosh – File sharing as diffrernt concept

I am quiet thrilled about this product as such amazing p2p file-sharing utility. Amazing concept
How do you actually download files using a torrent, which we usually visit some torrent listing site, find the url and start downloading

How about, you create your own list on your website and you and your friends start downloading a file of your/our interest and the best part is you get the file much much faster.

Conclusion:
The best part is download and worst part is usability

1. you can’t change password
2. you are given separate url to show statistics on your download and bandwidth etc
3. and bad navigation

any ways here is the link
Keep the flag flying

Tails – Effortless bugtracking.

Bugtracking applications have become hellishly complicated. So complicated, and so frustrating to use, that we set out to do the job ourselves. Introducing Tails. It’s light, attractive and has just what you need to keep track of issues in your software. Without the fluff.

I have looking for bugtracking software for quiet sometime, and happened to land on this the site Angry Amoeba, who actually have worked for the website for Zyotism
The software is yet to be relased if you want to get notified, do enter your email address.

A lot of expectation is on you guys. All the best

Don’t Just Stop with Website for promotion

I remember yesterday evening I was saying the same thing to DevAnand, If Opmanager MSP needs to come to top in search engine you need more people to talk about Opmanager MSP in the blogs and you more potential customers on the website.

Why Blog? why not just google ads? Website Keywords, description etc ?
Simple there are other sites which are more popular than your websites, Where more people come there to collaborate, discuss, talk, express and what not. If more people are going to talk about your product, more the response you get from technorati. so you listing gets improved in Google or other search engines like yahoo, MSN

Do remember Yahoo is still the KING and then google after which is MSN.

Here is a little stat on what helped this Blog hits go up.

To name a few

1. Delicious
2. Technorati
3. Digg
4. Furl
5. fark

And here is nice article which on the Yahoo News which gives an idea Why blogs also helps?

PS: for those who don't know what OpManager is "Opmanager is Network monitoring Software" which is under the brand name ManageEngine and is a product of Adventnet , in short terms it is nothing but a – Mapping – Monitoring – Alerting – Reporting tool. if you need to know more about the software you check this link of opmanager, Opmanager MSP is another flavour for the MSP (Managed Service Provider) and the link is right here.

Indian Wal*Mart – Certainly Low prices

Largest collection of Low cost home appliances under one roof is the theme for this store.
Location: India, TamilNadu, chennai, TNagar, ( total of 7 stores available)

P.S:This is not Wal*Mart but certainly this store in India is trying to achieve that. This is easy way of saying to international market that we too have a store just like walmart in India (Saravana Stores).

Guess Who it is "Saravana Stores"

My Experience 5 years before, I had been to the store to buy some home appliances, but by the very attitude of the salesman I got pissed off I let my self decide that I will not step inside this shop in my life time.

My Current Experience: I should thank Dev for this, when we had a chat he question me won't you buy an article in this store which is at-least 1% lesser than current market. I said no, all i need is user experience.
Well that whole thing changed because of my wife, she too got the info that Saravana store was much cheaper than any where else.
We stepped in and I was quite surprised a huge mall, you cannot count the visible heads because they move in all direction , well I joined the gang. I didn't have a cart to collect the things which I wanted to buy all I was given was a carry bag. And the biggest surprise was the price, I recently purchased a mobile Nokia N70 at an affordable price as I said 1% lesser than the current market value and with 9 months EMI at zero % interest on my Credit card.

Who the F* else gives me on this price.

One thing which I would like to comment. My company Adventnet offers wide range of products for the enterprise IT at an affordable price. same as the way Walmart or Saravana stores. But I guarantee you that we have better support than saravana stores in that matter

Conclusion: The best place to buy articles at a cheaper price in chennai, my best bet is Saravana stores, One thing which I expect from them is the service which they still lag one salesman for atleast 15 customers is a nightmare for the customer as well as for the salesman
