ShalinIndia Launches Copper Dinnerware for Holding Indian Theme Parties

New Delhi, Delhi (PRWEB) September 13, 2011

ShalinIndia, an online store for shopping cultural products from India has launched full range of traditional copper tableware dinnerware for its global customers. These tableware are meant to give authentic ethnic Indian dining experience. Customers are able to buy them online not only from ShalinIndias own online store, but also from other online marketplaces like Amazon, Ebay, Bonanza, Etsy, Atomic Mall and Webstore.

Our copper tableware is meant to give authentic indian dining experience. Ethnic cuisine is best enjoyed when eaten in traditional style. Indians have used copper, since ancient times, for making dining and kitchen utensils. Yellow is considered sign of good omen and therefore gold and copper have been traditional favorite metals among Indians, says Shalini Verma, founder of ShalinIndia.

Indian foods are best relished when it is served hot. ShalinIndia tableware and dinnerware are made in two layers of metals with air cushion in between. This ensures that food stays hot longer when served in these tableware. The best form of drink to go with Indian food is often water or lassi, a yogurt based drink. Double walled tumblers ensure that water or lassi remain fresh and cool. Inner layer is made in stainless steel while the outer layer is made in copper. Food or drink is in contact with stainless steel only and not copper, added Shalini Verma.

We have launched full range of tableware. There are famous traditional thalis, which is a large plate with large ear-rims, four serving bowls called katoris, a tumbler glass, and a spoon and a fork. Rice or tandoories are usually served in the center of the plate, while the Indian curry and desert are served in the bowls. Most Indians use fingers for eating food. The thali plates are designed for use of fingers. Outer elevated rims on the plates ensure that the curries do not flow out of the plate. Besides thalis, there are large serving bowls meant for the center of the dining table. These are called by different names according to their shapes, like karahi for serving curry items, buckets for serving dals orlentils, dekchis and handis for serving rice or biryani, and tava for serving Indian breads or other tandoor items, explained Shalini Verma.

ShalinIndia is an India online shopping store selling mainly cultural products of India to global customers. The company has partnered with amazon to store its inventory in five countries US, UK, France, Germany, and Japan. Amazon picks, packs and ships orders in these five countries. Orders from other countries are shipped directly from India. Every order is delivered within three to five days.

WooThemes Launches WooCommerce for WordPress

Cape Town, South Africa (PRWEB) September 29, 2011

WooThemes, one of the largest theme providers for WordPress sites, today launched WooCommerce, an all-new plugin application and library of integrated themes that help individuals and businesses turn WordPress sites into simple, elegant and fully-customizable e-commerce offerings.

WooCommerce is the best way for businesses to quickly build professional shopping sites with world-class designs and powerful, customizable features.

Rather than paying a fortune for an old-fashioned e-commerce CMS, or a newer hosted service that requires outside expertise to implement, individuals and businesses can now use WooCommerce to build WordPress-powered shopping sites without the headache and hassle that such projects typically entail.

WooThemes, founded over 4 years ago, has amassed 50,000 paying customers, and its free themes have been downloaded more than 800,000 times. WordPress itself currently powers 22% of all websites in the US.

WooCommerce is the first of a longer line of forthcoming products that leverage WooThemes for end-to-end WordPress development. It is also the first product from WooLabs, a new division at the company created to innovate new products and extend WooThemes as a platform.

With WooCommerce and WooLabs both, users can expect the same top-notch design quality that WooThemes is known for, as well as a powerful line of new applications that take our idea of themes to a new level.

This has been in the works for quite a while and now were proud to officially launch WooCommerce, said Adii Pienaar, co-founder and CEO of WooThemes. Weve spent the last 4 years building and selling themes. Were one of the top theme providers and a trusted partner for millions. We have a lot to be thankful for. But were not resting. Were taking everything weve learned along to the way, and are doubling down on WordPress, with a new application layer that tightly integrates with our themes and gives customers precisely the kind of end-to-end, holistic solution that theyve been asking us for.

The WooCommerce team is working on one-click integrations between existing themes and the new WooCommerce plugin. Statua is already integrated with WooCommerce to allow photographers to sell their prints online. Similarly, the Diner theme will soon be integrated with WooCommerce, allowing restaurants to accept take-away orders via their website. The SupportPress theme will be integrated to allow anyone to sell premium support of any kind.

This is a big day for the whole team, said Magnus Jepson, co-founder of WooThemes. Weve built a fast-growing business. Now, we want to turn great themes into great applications. If your business wants to sell more products or services online, WooCommerce is your first stop.

The approach of not only building the back-end platform, but also carefully integrating successful themes means WooCommerce can have a huge impact on any businesses looking to improve their ability to grow sales on the Web.

The expert integration of the right theme with the e-commerce platform makes it dead simple for a business to start making more money online, without having to take the one-size-fits-all approach of other commerce platforms.

WooCommerce is available for download today. The WooCommerce code is open source and can be found at http://woothemes.com/woocommerce.

WooCommerce Features Include:

Open source WordPress plug-in

Variety of product type functionality

Multiple payment gateway options

Comprehensive tax and shipping settings

Built-in reporting

Beautiful, customizable themes and extensions

Why wouldnt you want to recommend a service where they would get paid for their old iPhone and youd make some money too?

The iPhone referral program includes a new referral portal, http://iphonesintocash.com/referrals, where the program is fully explained and users can acquire a personalized referral link which uses a unique code to register all referral sales and credit $ 20 to the users account. The unique referral URL can be shared via email, Twitter, Facebook, blogs, websites, or any other means. The portal also allows referral sales tracking, useful tips for increasing referrals and overall earnings reports.

Over the coming months, iPhonesIntoCash intends on adding additional features to the referral portal including a creative library which will allow users to download creative to place on their own blogs and website. The iPad2 contest is also featured in the referral portal. Each referred iPhone received gets the referrer an entry into the contest. Contest rules can be found on the iPhonesIntoCash website at http://iphonesintocash.com/referral_program/contest.

GOGII Launches textPlus Application on the Android Market

Marina del Rey, Calif. (PRWEB) January 4, 2010

GOGII, Inc. announces today the launch of textPlus, its popular next generation texting application, on the Android Market. Previously available only on the Apple App Store, the unique textPlus app now brings sponsor-supported free and unlimited messaging to Android users and allows them to have instant group "conversations" in text with friends on most U.S. carriers.

"We've already seen overwhelming consumer response to the textPlus app in the Apple App Store thanks to the millions of consumers who've embraced our game-changing features - from casual texters to the staggering number of consumers who text as their primary mode of communication," said Scott Lahman, CEO and co-founder of GOGII. "We're pleased to make textPlus available to Android users, and offer even more text-happy mobile consumers this tricked-out, next generation

texting service."

By leveraging GOGII's interactive messaging technology, textPlus allows both old-style texting - one-to-one conversations - and next generation texting - rich, engaging environments and instant group text conversations. A useful 'reply-all' feature, similar to email, turns texting into a chatroom that lets users make plans with several friends at once, introduce people to one another or just carry on a group conversation - all in text and all for free.

Additional features make it easy for Android texters to make textPlus their preferred SMS service, including the international ability to send free messages from abroad to friends in the U.S. using a U.S. 10-digit phone number and free Notifications when messages come into the app, even when closed. What's more, textPlus lets Android users communicate with friends who aren't using the app - they simply pay for texts through their existing carrier plan.

GOGII expects the textPlus Android app to be met with the same degree of consumer fervor on the Android Market that it has on the Apple App Store. To date, the textPlus app has already seen almost 3.5 million downloads, and over 350 million messages have been sent using the service since June. And while only the top 5% of applications in the Apple App Store reach 100,000 unique monthly visitors, textPlus exceeded that by over 7 times in its second month of release.

Coming soon to Android are textPlus "text addresses," which let users personalize texting and facilitate conversations, all without requiring a phone number.

The textPlus application can be downloaded for free from the Android Market.

GOGII, Inc. announced an $ 8.2 million Series B round of funding from Matrix Partners and Kleiner, Perkins, Caufield & Byers last month.

About textPlus

textPlus leverages GOGII's next generation text messaging platform to bring free, ad-supported one-to-one and group texting, and enables seamless interaction between textPlus users and their friends using regular text messaging (SMS). The service is currently available on the iPod touch and iPhone on the Apple App Store and on Android phones from the Android Market.

About GOGII (go-jee)

GOGII provides customers the next generation of text messaging through its flagship product, textPlus, the leading feature-rich and fun third-party text messaging application.

GOGII, Inc. is backed by venture capital firms Matrix Partners and Kleiner Perkins Caufield & Byers' iFund, which is exclusively focused on developing applications for Apple's products. GOGII, Inc. was founded in 2008 by the three founders of JAMDAT Mobile, the leading mobile entertainment publisher that was acquired by Electronic Arts in 2006.

Black Rooster Launches With Viral Campaign, Zombies, Superheroes, andBugs?

Los Angeles, CA (PRWEB) October 18, 2011

Black Rooster Creations has launched its website with a viral campaign and three major book releases written by screenwriter Jim Beck featuring zombies, superheroes, and yes, even bugs.

The first release, Patient Zero, serves as a cautionary tale that mixes old school zombies with new school technology. Narrated by the zombie virus itself, the story follows single father Robert Forrester, who is brought back to life as one of the living dead after a botched experiment involving nanotechnology. His transformation is slow, first appearing as a skin rash and advanced arthritis, and he quickly begins to lose control.

Featuring a cover quote by Jonathan Maberry, NY Times bestselling author of such zombie fare as his own Patient Zero and Rot & Ruin, Jim Beck's Patient Zero is currently available through Amazon and Smashwords as a digital download and will soon be available for such formats as Apple's iBooks and Barnes & Noble's Nook.

Accompanying the release will be a viral campaign through Facebook and Twitter beginning on October 18th, and will feature the main characters inner thoughts as his infection escalates. Details are available on the Black Rooster Creations website (blackroostercreations.com).

Beck stated, The idea for Patient Zero came to me after ingesting numerous forms of zombie lore and realizing that many of them shared the same basic formula of an unexplained outbreak, followed by a group of people trying to survive. I wanted to tell a more personal story about a single father trying to protect his son and defend their home while coming to grips with his own transformation. I also liked the contrast between zombification and nanotechnology, and telling the story from the point of view of the virus will provide readers with an insight rarely seen in the world of zombies.

The second and third releases coincide with the introduction of TV in Prose (TM), an exciting new venture that brings television into the world of books. Each series will be split up into seasons and episodes similar to a televised series and will include season-long arcs, season finales, and even cliffhangers. Current plans are for each series to have four seasons, with 6-8 episodes each. New releases will take place every 1-2 months.

The first TV in Prose title is Alter Ego, the story of a homicide detective who discovers that his demure wife is a superhero charged with defending their city against those who would do it harm. The second title is Pest Control, a cartoon of sorts that follows the adventures of a cockroach private eye as he tries to get back into the detective game after an eighteen-month hiatus.

Beck commented, I love television and I love books, and I thought someone should finally mix the two formats in a way that hasnt really been done before. Alter Ego and Pest Control have been pet projects of mine for several years, and I am excited to allow readers the opportunity to see whats in my head.

To celebrate their website launch, Black Rooster Creations is offering the first episode of each TV in Prose series for free. For details on where to go for a free copy, please visit their website (blackroostercreations.com).

Beck also added, With the formation of Black Rooster Creations, we hope to bring unique, original stories into the fold and are determined to have fun while we do it.

India Shopping ShalinIndia Launches Copper Drinkware for Ayurvedic Healing

New Delhi, India (PRWEB) September 16, 2011

ShalinIndia, a premier India online shopping store, has launched today a unique pitcher and glass set, made entirely in pure copper. According to Ayurveda, a system of alternative medicine, copper has healing properties. Storing water for three hours in these copper pitchers, for instance, is known to kill harmful bacteria and prevent certain diseases such as skin inflammation and piles, as well as spleen, respiratory, and gynecological disorders.

According to Ayurveda or the knowledge of long life, drinking water from copper tumblers is also known to prevent premature aging. To the delight of the modern cosmetics industry, copper has been found to stimulate collagen production, and some of the most well known brands in skin care have since integrated copper into skin creams for treating wrinkles, said Shalini Verma, founder of ShalinIndia.

The pitcher and tumbler set are designed in traditional style. The Pitcher is in the shape of a Lota, which is sometimes used as Kalash in the Hindu system "pooja" or worship. The tumbler has a simple design without frills. The artisans of Mathura in north India have handcrafted the pitcher and tumbler.

We wanted to bring to our global customers copper pitcher and tumbler in the same shape and design as has been traditionally used in Indian homes, added Shalini Verma.

The copper pitcher and tumbler set from ShalinIndia can be purchased online from their own online store as well as from online marketplaces like Amazon, Ebay, Etsy, Atomic mall, Bonanza and Webstore.

This drinkware set has been priced at $ 35 and can be shipped to all parts the world.

ShalinIndia is an India online shopping store selling mainly cultural products of India to global customers. The company has partnered with Amazon to store its inventory in five countries US, UK, France, Germany, and Japan. Amazon picks, packs and ships orders in these five countries. Orders from other countries are shipped directly from India. Every order is delivered within three to five days.

Voki Launches New Classroom Management Service for Educators: Voki Classroom

New York, NY (PRWEB) August 16, 2011

Launched in 2006 as a free application, Voki enables teachers and students to create, configure and share customizable online avatars for education. Users can select one of many types of avatars, customizing every aspect, from size and colors, to outfits and even jewelry. Voki users can then create an audio message, based on text-to-speech (over 25 languages and 150 voices), a microphone recording, uploading an mp3 file, or even calling a number to record by phone. Users can select an image or animated background, or upload their own. Finally, Voki users may share their creation anywhere on the Web - posting it on 3rd party sites and blogs, sharing a link, or embedding it directly onto their websites.

Voki quickly became popular among educators, who enjoy the interactivity of the service, and students, who love new technology and creating speaking characters. Today, Voki has almost 1 million users worldwide, with thousands of teachers and students registering each week. Voki is used across a variety of topics and grade levels, and has some universal benefits:

-> Voki helps introduce fun and creativity to the classroom through technology.

-> Voki allows shy students to more easily express themselves through speech.

-> Voki serves as an effective language acquisition tool.

-> Voki increases engagement and interest levels among students.

-> As a result, Voki helps improve message comprehension in the classroom.

One drawback with Voki, according to many teachers, has been the inability for young students to register their own accounts due to COPPA. As a result, young students have been limited in their access to Voki.

While teachers and students love using Voki, we understood that there was a large usage gap. Voki appeals to many age groups, but especially to young learners - which is precisely the age group that had limited access, based on the age restrictions. We needed an easy way to address this issue says Jesse Kedy (Marketing Manager for Voki).

Based on extensive feedback from educators and Voki advocates, the Voki team has developed Voki Classroom, an online platform that allows teachers to manage students Voki experience. Some of the main features of Voki Classroom include:

-> Automatic Student Logins. After a teacher imports or adds a list of students, Voki Classroom automatically generates a login and a password for each student. This overcomes the need for students to register with Voki. This also eliminates the need for teachers to spend time showing students how to register.

-> Each teacher can add up to 10 classes (with multiple lessons per class) and 200 students.

-> Classes and Lessons. Teachers can add all of their classes and assign students to their respective classes and assignments. When students log in, they will see their assignments and can create their speaking avatars in class or at home. Each lesson also includes a Web page, which displays all student characters for that lesson. Lesson pages can be customized by the teacher and can include password protection.

-> Educators using Voki Classroom also receive unlimited online support, something that is not available with the free Voki service.

Voki Classroom is accessible from Voki.com. Additionally, Voki has launched a new Learn section (http://www.voki.com/learn.php), which will include resources for teachers and students interested in using speaking avatars for education. Finally, Voki will maintain free access to its Lesson Plan Database (http://www.voki.com/lesson_plans.php), which includes a growing list of lessons using Voki avatars across many topics and grade levels.

Voki Classroom is a paid service, which might be an issue for some teachers. Kedy says, We are acutely aware of the lack of school budgets for most things tech-related. Taking this into account, we have worked to lower the cost of the service to a very affordable amount. Our formula for affordability is simple: charge less than the price of one small macchiato per month, and ensure that the value far outweighs the cost. We believe that Voki Classroom meets both requirements. Voki Classroom also includes discounts for longer subscriptions, and for multiple accounts. For pricing details, see http://www.voki.com/products.php.

No features have been removed or reduced in any way from the free version of Voki. Teachers and students can continue to access and use Voki and all of its features, as they have in the past. Voki Classroom is our way of adding more value to the Voki experience, while making it easier to manage for educators.

For more information on Voki Classroom, please visit the Official Voki Blog (http://blog.voki.com/) which includes a 3-part announcement of Voki Classroom. Alternatively, you may visit http://www.voki.com for complete details.
