October 5, 2009 — YouCanFindMe.at, a new social networking and aggregation company based in the UK and India, is pleased to announce the worldwide launch of its free online profile business card service http://www.YouCanFindMe.at

WithYouCanFindMe.at, millions of Internet users on such social networks as Facebook, Twitter, MySpace, LinkedIn, Flickr, and dozens of other services can create a single online business card to serve as a hub for all of their profiles and identities. Upon signing up for the YouCanFindMe.at service, each user is given a unique, short user name, for example, YouCanFindMe.at/Madonna (or even shorter, ycfm.at/Madonna).

Most of my friends have social networking accounts at a lot different sites, and it’s almost impossible for me to keep track of them all. WithYouCanFindMe.at, I can find them with no effort.

Some YouCanFindMe.at business cards for famous global celebrities include: Oprah Winfrey, David Beckham, Aishwarya Rai, and Salman Kahn. All Internet users can now join them with their own free YouCanFindMe.at online business card, by simply signing up their details at http://www.YouCanFindMe.at.

Since each user name will be given out only once, however, users should rush to register their desired user names immediately.

“Most of my friends have social networking accounts at a lot different sites, and it’s almost impossible for me to keep track of them all,” said Jason Shoemaker, a student based in London. “WithYouCanFindMe.at, I can find them with no effort.” Similarly, Sam Roy, a consultant based in Los Angeles exclaimed, “Now I can give a single Internet URL on my business card, instead of trying to fit it three or four. Now clients can find me and I can find them, without any guesswork or time wasted on search engines.”

The YouCanFindMe.at online business card is “ridiculously simple, ridiculously useful and ridiculously free”. Indeed, YouCanFindMe.at is the ridiculously perfect solution for email signatures and for sharing contact information. But to reserve the perfect name, users must hurry and register their details at YouCanFindMe.at.

It gives us great please to announce that we launched a spiritual event portal “kalpavasi.com” primarily to facilitate foreign visitors to experience the Kumbh Mela

http://www.Kalpavasi.com is the most comprehensive web site on the Kumbh Mela and provides all round information on the world’s biggest event from all possible disciplines and approaches. Kalpavasi.com has brought the little know aspect of the Kalpavasa Vrata and has presented to a worldwide audience in order to popularise the correct system of participation for pilgrims

http://www.Kalpavasi.com deals with the Kumbh Mela not only from the aspect of faith, religion and spirituality but also from the scientific views. The website is the result of more than ten years of intense research by renowned indologists, sociologists, anthropologists, archaeologists and religious scholars

Kalpavasi throws new light to the way the Kumbh Mela has been approached through the years. Kalpavasi attempts to bring back the importance of the pilgrims who have over the years become mute spectators while the ascetics (Sadhus) have grabbed the limelight and headlines. The portal has been started to bring back into vogue the importance of the lay devotee and his quintessential kalpavasa vrata in the Kumbh Mela, which seems to have lost its importance in the recent times .

The importance of Kalpavasa and its benefits are believed to be same as experiencing one day at the Brahmaloka or 4.32 billion years are highlighted. According to the Hindu Dharma, this is the closest one may come to immortality. Kalpavasi.com presents several unique packages which encapsulate the holistic Kumbh through that experience the magic of immortality

Kalpavasi.com is probably the first of its kind in acting as bridge between science and Kumbha Mela. The web site explains every phenomenon of the great Mela in scientific terms easily assimilated by logic and reasoning, extrapolating the same to generic ideological concepts and constructs. Kalpavasi is probably the most unique and interesting websites based on Indian Culture and Heritage presently

I Dr. Manish Mokshagundam, Managing Director of Studiorama India Limited request the blessings of the elders and the co-operation of the young in spreading the essence of India worldwide through this humble endeavour of ours. Hoping that we shall be successful in creating the much needed awareness about the Kumbh Mela

Kalpavasi.com is a Studiorama India Limited initiative, who have diversified from a long and successful stint as market leaders in the audio-visual medium specializing in Indological projects and events into the in-bound tourism sector.

With more than 300,000 monthly active users on Facebook, 3 million monthly page views, a stable of 8 games deployed on 4 different social networking and mobile platforms and significant revenue, HashCube has a proven track record of developing, deploying and monetizing educational casual games for the social and mobile platforms. They are one of the few startups which are doing more than copy pasting US stuff for India. Rather, more than 99% of their active users currently are non-Indians. With 5 more games planned, their success looks likely to continue well into the future.

HashCube, a start-up being supported under iAccelerator program at IIM Ahmedabad’s Centre for Innovation Incubation and Entrepreneurship (CIIE), aims to leverage the current craze amongst youth to use applications built on these platforms. Notably, iShoot application on iPhone by a developer in the US made around Rs 3 crore in one month. Scrabulous by India’s Agarwala brothers has been one of the most popular applications on Facebook.

HashCube’s innovation extends beyond programming as they look to alternative industries for ideas on how to finance their expansion. Borrowing a trick from the movie industry they plan to sell ‘points’ in their upcoming games entitling investors to act like producers and to directly share in the revenue of the games Hashcube develops. This provides a much clearer path for investors to get a return on their money and allows HashCube to retain more control of their company, creating a ‘win-win’ for both parties

Quotes:

About Hashcube

“Users playing HashCube’s games have fun while improving their concentration memory and logical thinking. Our games generate more than 3 million page views and it is growing at 35% every month.” say the founders of HashCube.

Fund raising for Hashcube

“Having already raised their initial investment from the iAccelerator, the team would soon be looking at raising more innovative financing. Since economics of games are more like movies, revenue sharing deals align with financing games naturally. This takes a lot of the risk out of funding startups” says Freeman Murray (Founder of Upstart.in, a co-investor and part of Management Team at iAccelerator).

Selection at iAccelerator

“We got interested in supporting Hashcube as they were doing more than just ‘games’. They are able to quickly come up with simple, logical and mentally stimulating games like Sudoku, LooptheLoop and Dot Game which a regular internet user can play the same way he has been playing other games” Pranay Gupta, Joint CEO, CIIE (IIM Ahmedabad).

Quote about the iAccelerator Program

“iAccelerator effectively bridges the seed-funding and mentoring gap that exists in Indian entrepreneurial ecosystem. We are glad to support close to a dozen start-ups in this round of iAccelerator. Most of these are currently in stealth mode and we shall unleash them gradually over the next 3-4 months.” says Kunal Upadhyay, CEO, CIIE (IIM Ahmedabad)

About Hashcube:

HashCube (www.hashcube.com) is a social gaming company started by school friends Deepan (26) and Ram (25). HashCube makes popular puzzle type games on social networks like Facebook, Orkut, Myspace, Friendster and mobile platforms like the iPhone. HashCube has operated out of Bangalore since 2008, and was accepted into the 2009 batch of the iAccelerator program
