2007-03-14 08:23:00
Ilaaka (pronounced e+laa+ca) is a rapidly growing destination that went from 120 users in September of last year to around 14000 users as of this writing.

Cricketology
2007-03-09 23:57:03
Skilworth, a new technology start-up from India, just launched an innovative cricket offering called Cricket ology. Picture this - a billion cricket experts, each watching thousands of hours of live cricket, listening to commentary from the gurus, debating the finer points of selection at tea shops or discussing the pros and cons of each World Cup side in boardrooms. It was time that someone asked these arm-chair experts to "put their money where their mouth is". That's exactly what Cricketology is all about. The real highlight of this prediction game is the Bonus Factor multipliers that are on offer, which are pretty similar to Odds/Ratios. Every right prediction, earns you multiple points based on ?Bonus Factors' which change as the game progresses. Users accumulate points by making predictions for all World Cup matches and finally redeem them for big prizes at the end of the Championship. Billed as the ?Ultimate Cricket Game on Earth' and aimed at Indian arm-chair...
