RadioRockeTalk and the 3 Idiots
The New Year started off with a B-A-N-G on Radio RockeTalk with our programming resuming after a short break with the best the New Year had to offer: The undisputed king of Indian cinema- the guy who knows the pulse of his audience sooooo well; is easy on the eyes; never goes wrong with the choice of music; picks his scripts selectively and still makes half of India feel ‘a flush comes to to my face and my pulse begins to race… it goes boompty, boompty, boompty, boompty, boom, boom, boom…’ Yes, you are right- Aamir Khan. Well he did it again with his new Bollywood release, 3 Idiots!
Tuesday nights are our very own RJ Ajayr’s night and this time he chose to do a feature or rather a discussion on the 3 Idiots. I must stop right here to tell you that I have not watched the movie yet. Yes, it was screen in San Diego for a couple days and I COULD NOT MAKE IT. Sorry Goldspirt Films. Sorry Vijay and Shalni. Sorry Aamir. But most of all I am sorry for myself
For all you newbies- every evening and sometimes at other times between 9:30pm and till whenever it ends (usually 3 hrs or so) we have fun ‘events’ like a radio talkshow – but different. There are hosts or RJs who introduce the topics and then everyone participates in the discussion. So very unlike Radio or television where things are pretty one sided, this is a live, all inclusive show where everyone can, well, speak up. As RockeTalk is all about the mobile phones, our audiences and participants are on the mobile phones and are from all over the world. From the well connected US to the remote places in India- anyone can participte or just listen in.
The highlights of this week Tuesday night’s program:
Ragging scene
Kareena Kapoor: The only idiot? Or is it plain jealousy? LOL
Piracy movie – free movie download controvercy
Amir Khan’s excessive bathing
Hello! Is that a problem? Well thats what the guys said any way.. as for us girls… Aamir in see-thru wear… all wet.. any girls saying ‘no’ to that?
Chetan Bhagat controversy
Chotu_Tapori’s birthday

Another Addicted RockeTalker!
We always like to hear from RockeTalkers. Sometimes they say good things (like they can’t live without RockeTalk)- and sometimes they tell us we simply stink.
And then ocassionally come across something interesting that they posted on the web
Read on.
RockeTalk: A World that Never Sleeps

“By now all those who know me, know that I’m totally addicted to RockeTalk. After all, who wouldn’t be? All my fellow RockeTalker would agree with me. It is by far the most addictive social networking application that I’ve got my hands on. So much so, that when my mother filled in the matrimony column for me, (don’t even ask about that!!!) in the ‘interests’ section I asked her to put in ‘RockeTalking’.
RockeTalking for me has become a part of my daily life now. Like I’ve said many times, I start my mornings not with a cup of tea or coffee, nor do I jump out of bed and rush to brush my teeth…I start it with greetings all my fellow RockeTalkers. It’s funny but RT has turned me into a very tolerant person. From being a girl, who hated talking to people for the first couple of hr’s after she’s woken up coz she couldn’t stand to listen to non-stop chatter to being someone who actually pops open one eye and searches for the cell phone just to connect with the world. Lolz…the next few seconds are spent in checking who all are online. Thank god I don’t have to search for them. All the online friends are listed with a green symbol against their name…and the lazy bone in me doesn’t want to send out individual msgs. So I simply mark one msg to all… and that marks the beginning of an endless chat session.
Let me tell you RT is not just about chatting, it has a host of other things to offer. Like any other ordinary person, I too work for a living, so can’t get away from work, and the ride to office in an auto can be quite boring. Well, RT comes to my rescue again!! For all of you who don’t know this, you can actually make mini videos on the move and share with your fellow RockeTalkers, or even other friends (post it to their email addresses). So as soon as I see something interesting I capture it through my RT camera, and simply post it either to my friends, or if I want to share it with everyone then I post it in the ‘Gallery’. And as I browse through the gallery, sitting at the back of an auto, enduring a bumpy ride to my office, I come across many interesting videos posted by other users. It’s interesting to know how creative people can get when given a camera in hand. In fact browsing the ‘gallery’ is a sure shot way to lift your low spirits. It always works for me!!
What it also does for me is provide entertainment. You know when you’re at work and feel the need for music, but think that the HR will be after your life if caught (as if you were stealing an imp document!!), that’s the time RT is my little savior!( If my HR girl read this she would never let me live in peace, lol). Don’t get me wrong, we don’t have music playing in there, it isn’t a radio channel…but what we have is live music. User’s at RockeTalk love to sing. Doesn’t matter if they are bathroom singers, the pure love for singing shows in their voice and its so much fun…to be honest, I’ve myself joined them with antakshari many a times lol…But ofcrs, that’s after office hrs. When I’m relaxing at home after a hard days work, and don’t wanna watch TV. In-fact a lot of college students putting up in hostels or as paying guests, swear by this as it’s just the perfect source of entertainment for them. When their friends from India doze off they begin the same rounds with users from other parts of the world, who have just started their day.
Speaking of users, I love people who state the obvious. Read this somewhere- “Social Media provides better coverage of news”…really? I guess this is why traditional news is being replaced by social news sites. The obvious is hardly stated and events are current. Like you would always get live updates on RT about the things happening around. So even if you are sitting in your office u will be able to find out the latest score of the IPL or get to know of the bomb blast that are happening in some part of India…coz user’s make video’s and share right away. I can safely say that some of the content that I see on RockeTalk, I don’t even see it on any of the news channels! The con’s being you sometimes get false information….because someone decided to have a little fun as he was getting bored stiff or this was his idea of getting attention of other users. Whatever it may be, at the end of it, its fun, entertaining and you’re connected to the world for free!!
So don’t just sit there and read this blog, come and connect with me and the world as well. Come join me on RockeTalk.

RockeTalk: The evolution revolution
Dear RockeTalkers,
You asked for changes we made them.
And we made changes without your asking for them.
We hope you like the way RockeTalk has changed and evolved right before your eyes.

As you remember and keep talking about the colors, the screens and features of the past versions, we thought we would go back into our files and post some of the old screens (and new ones) to remind you of the good times we’ve all had, and continue to have, through the stages.
With encouragement from you, RockeTalk is now available for download on over 340 mobile phone models. If you have a model that we have not yest covered, please send your request to support@rocketalk.com
At times we have to let go of some features but we keep listening and try to make sure that we react quickly and meet any popular requests or high priority usability issues pointed out by you. And if necessary, add some of the features back. If there is something that you absolutely must have on RockeTalk, please write to feedback@rocketalk.com or ping me (amita) when I am online.
(No, I am not a bot. I need to eat, sleep, and attend to nature’s calls- just like you. An ocassional shower or outing doesn’t hurt either
)
Thanks for all your wonderful feedback. RockeTalk would not be where it is today without your active participation.
Hope to catch you for a session of Antaakshri in Bollywood Hungaama or a impromptu Mushaira in Mehfil. Or in Flirts. Or Babel. Or …. I’m sure you’ll catch me ….
Keep those jokes and videos coming. (Yep. Heard you. We are increasing the size for uploading videos
)
As always, we give you the application. You make it fun.
Love to you all.
Amita

On these phones there is no need to download! Simply select “Games & Apps” from the home screen, then “RockeTalk.” It’s that simple! And as you know, RockeTalk is the only application in India that provides both mobile IM chat and a full-featured end-to-end mobile social network with voice, photo, and video messaging, communities, and user-generated and professional content.
We’re obviously very excited about our partnership with LG. Here is our full press release.
