The Hindu has covered Zook across multiple editions today.

While unintended, this may have the side-effect of getting Z-o-o-k pronounced similar to hook - which may not be a bad thing - it might associate the search engine with speed
(Zuk - like something moving fast?)

We’ve partnered with Hummaa to make all their awesome music available for download on your phone! Its legal, its cheap (at 6/- a song, ringtones cost more) and you can find that Rafi or Gulzar song that the carriers never seem to advertise. Or the ocean of lovely Carnatic music you might pick from.
Go ahead and explore….

Ajay just got us all ice cream - butterscotch and chocolate. An interesting discussion ensued about whether Amul was better than Kwality, and if only Indian brands were allowed to deal in dairy based products.
Answer to that question about dairy products ? I dunno, ask Zook.
Bangalore’s experiencing great weather. The traffic’s on the upswing. On the site, not on the roads.And there’s a nice long weekend coming up. Happy Ugadi all (grab Ugadi stuff for your mobile!)
[ Who's buying ice-cream next week? ]

A little snooping around all the content we’ve been adding recently got some interesting stuff (and converted even me, who’s never downloaded a ringtone in my life, to do that!).
If you’re so inclined, there’s Mantras you can use, or various sirens if thats your thing. There’s various other ways of getting you to pick up the phone, some very amusing
Rock, F1, bells, funny ones, there’s all kinds of stuff you can download for nothing at all. Go ahead and find it - its fun and its free.
There’s also tons of pictures you could use, and mobile games and applications - all through one search box.
We continue to work to bring more and more interesting, useful stuff for you. Keep zook.in!
P.S. Reminder : you can also download and use the Zook client for S60 3rd Ed. phones - check out if there’s one for yours….

Yesterday, owing to a configuration mess-up, some alerts were sent out multiple times to users - with a few users really bearing the brunt of the flood
We’ve since paused alerts, and are working on the fix. Please accept our apologies for this - it was truly inadvertent and we’ll be putting up a extra checks to ensure there is no repeat of such an error.
Really, really sorry.
