Search engine replaced with ‘Fetch Engine’.A mobile based search engine launched recently by ZIVA software.

Its different from usual search results as they provide you the right exact pointing information for a  search querry.

ZOOK has been built on a business intelligence tool developed specifically for mobile devices.

This doesnt require any internet connectivity on the phone!Sending the search items through free SMS.

Small mobile users have no comforts like a desktop with very large screens and guarentee of almost a total power supply.To fit the need of the mobile users ,who can visualise only a very few characters on screen and for users who spend a very little time for searches that provide the apt results.They often look for the info on move and and dont have the patience to go through the long list.So its hiogh time for ZOOK on by sending the search item  via SMS to 57575665.The accessors of GPRS/WAP/CDMA can search through the www.zook.in,by conducting the search directly.

Though the search mode is different ,the way information is served remains the same here as the key fact is the results turn out in a very few clicks.Instead of a series of searches or countless clicks,ZOOK intelligently splits the info the user is seeking into attributes that would lead him directly to the answer.

Any one can find the querry on the movie ,details of the show running in the wanted theatres,nearby ATMs,Bus stations and what not!?ZOOK has also launched recently the ‘ALERT’ feature ,which lets the users leave a message to be alerted through SMS later.Thay let him know about the event ,know abouth the live concerts or release of the movie,in their locality which makes the search very purposeful.

Though it doesnt have any searches in regional languages,it has a community assisted platform that allows language based search to be handled manually.This happens when the search term is not understood by the search engine.

The ZOOK in is really busy with the search for ringtones and wallpapers,games contents ,as they prove to be the most demanding among the MOBILE USERS!!!!

Well I just thought that Engadget and Ubergizmo are at the zenith of their techy invasion. So its time to throw some light upon some of the upcoming and best tech blogs that have to be appreciated for the work that they have put in and how they, in a very small period of time have come up the ranks in almost reverse geometric progression.

I am listing some of the favourites..

insPyreIT is my first choice. Well the blog is on the roll. I saw the blog for the first time about two three months ago and at that time it did not appeal to me since it was short of good material. But the chap has put in a lot of work since then and at this instant it has a rank of 800000 or so.

Now wait a minute, I ain’t solely relying on the rank or traffic to the blog. The quality of the content is fabulous. Well, it has to go a long way, but its ubercool.

———————————————————————————

Next comes TechDirt.

Well, I ain’t saying its sort of cool or whatever. Neither it has a good reputation like ubergizmo or coolest-gadgets. But its got a multitude of content and thats what I liked about it. Well, it shows coarseness on the content but thats about it.

If you wanna get some easy information on some down -to-earth or hidden gadgets, techdirt is the place.

Slashdot??? Well, you have definitely heard about it. But let me tell you, this is good in giving the latest news in all domains, exclusively technology. And its good for the way we perceive and want to receive information. Well, this is cool in a different aspect….

If you want a whole article on some particular small and petty thing, slashdot is the place to get it. Well its not that it is rare and exquisite in its venture, but it gives importance to both the big and the small…
