[ Tip: for the readers of this blog - 984-551-9665 - thats 984-551-zook on your phone-keypad - will work as well for now. If we see more usage on the long code - we'll move to one for good. Its a Karnataka number so in other circles you'll need to prefix a +91 or 0 - +91-984-551-9665 ]

This is just a post about the tonnes of updates on Zook!

• Find the alert you want to set. Try “alerts movies INOX bangalore” or “alerts electronics deals“  - essentially syntax independent after the “alerts ….” - find and set the deals/movies/events you want to follow, not the “best whatever” somebody else puts and pushes to you.
• Greetings: Find a birthday/diwali/eid, etc, SMS forward, and set it up for the appropriate day as a mobile greeting! We’ll make sure its delivered on the right day and tell your friend you remembered them on the special day.
• Web Search: We’ve integrated web search results on Zook - just in case the data isn’t there, or good enough right away. Over time, we’ll try pulling information out of that too so you don’t have to grapple with links and more links and more links….

Keep Zook.in!

We announced this formally in the press.

MoneyControl

The Hindu

Pluggd.in, who broke it first!

AlooTechie

Sify

Business Standard

As a next step in our efforts with O2S, we’re adding m-downloadable-coupons that you can get on your phone for your categories/locality combination (and so cut out the noise!) soon. Keep Zook.in!

We added a bunch of alerts - customized - precise alerts - on Zook.

• Olympics: This is medals, news updates, twice a day. Click this to set it straightaway!
  We’re updating this once an hour.
• Deals: Once you’ve picked a specific deal to see more details - you can set alerts for similar deals.
  We try and figure from your query + the current deal what category, place to set the deal alert for - since obviously a flood of deals for anything and everything would be either too huge to send over 2-3 smses, or completely random and not too useful for you.
  [ A lot many deals courtesy Open2Save.in ]
• Movies: Get to know whats playing in your favourite theatre, for a specific language, in your city! We don’t just send you the “top movies” across the whole city - cause traffic is a pain, innit ?
  Again, once you’re in the details for a given movie, we’ll set the appropriate alert for that language/theatre/city ourselves. No need to type in details.
  [ Movies data in part from BookMyShow.com ]
• Events: Quite like Movies - nail down an interesting event - and let us know if you’d like to be alerted about similar events as and when they happen.
  [ Event data from BuzzInTown.com ]

We have already been running Traffic and Weather alerts for a while. Keep tabs on your [un]favourite intersection in 4 cities in India, and prepare for the rain, if any.
