Love is in the air: Flirting 101- Bollywood style

Flirt on Air RockeTalk style

Who flirts more, boys or girls?

That was what we were all talking about. It did get very noisy, chaotic and lively. We were not huddled up in a room, in fact we where not even in the same city or country and some of us several time zones away. What came about was a hilarious competition between the guys and gals…..

Radio RockeTalk profile-rounded

The audio clip below was posted in Radio RockeTalk community.

RockeTalk_flirting_RockeTalk_style_full_sequence

This is a result of the original clip, heard last, being forwarded and new clips recorded with it. Pretty interesting… was like a night long campout. But then, RockeTalk always feels that way….

Flirting is an art. In this fast paced world, we tend to forget that it takes creativity, a hint of naughtiness and a mystery to achieve the full effect. 

What better way to flirt than the good old Bollywood, filmy style- using songs. Yes, we use songs and music everywhere. So go on- flirt. Keep them guessing…. was it just a song or was it something more :) Let’s do it… on air! Old songs and some new ones.. bring it on!

Let’s give ‘em something to talk about….  :D

You still flirt in text or do you do it in person… in voice…. on air… with all your heart?

We know what you did last night ;)

The Wake-a-Thons are done for now, I was going through the fun things we all did. We got to know each other better. There was a lot of teasing, a lot of leg pulling, a lot of encouragement and a lot many friendships that came about as a result of these ’spent-the-night-with-you’ events.

Here are some fun audio clips for you to enjoy!

We made them do a lot of silly stuff through the night. Some easy, some not so easy but silly for sure :)

I think I can, I think I could..

That is exactly what we at RockeTalk asked you. Why did you think your video should be aired on Channel [V] during the eXhausted show? It is your short cut to fame- get your entry in for the Wake-a-thon and yours just might be the one!

We were overwhelmed by the responses and the different sides of you all when you are were asked to talk about yourself. From the very basic- ‘I should be’ to very elaborate answers – to even when you all took it on as a political campaign- getting others to talk about you. Boy, you were all so right, India has talent- that’s for sure.

We are having fun putting the Wake-a-Thon shows together with your help of course- but please keep in mind- when you suggest the tasks for the contestants, you could be in the hot seat next. So….. please don’t seriously suggest we hang each contestant upside for the night and see who makes it :)

But seriously, some of the best ideas come from you and we really appreciate your time and patience, especially with me, and your enthusiasm, zeal, friendly voices every single day. I wake to your voices each day- and I love it.

If you are wondering what Wake-a-Thon is, it is a parallel show in response and in continuation of Channel V’s eXhausted, (Yes, they are trying to woo the MTV Roadies audiences) where ‘regular’ folks can join in the fun without having to travel- right from their mobile phones. The participants – compete and the others give them tasks to do through the night. Fun thing, as it is multimedia- folks got to send in pictures, videos and responses in their own voices. And the rest of us get to tease, cheer or boo (nah- we don’t really boo do we?)

As we cannot show hundreds of your entries on here, so here is a sample of what people sent in last week- it is just a few- hey I pushed it- I was told to choose only 5- at least I got 9 in. If you don’t see your entry here, it is nothing personal. We tried to get a good sample for you to view. Enjoy! Best wishes for this weeks contest. And keep those entries coming. Your entry may be featured next :)

Want to see your video on Channel V or here? Think you got what it takes? Come join the fun and see you you can actually make it through the night. All you need is RockeTalk on your mobile phone and fun in your hearts.

All videos were shot using mobile phones and posted directly on RockeTalk  as entries for a chance  to play the Wake-a-Thon on August 29-30, 2009 as a contestant.

LG India and RockeTalk Partnership

LG India just released new mobile phones for the India market. These phones come pre-loaded with the RockeTalk application and have been launched in Maharashtra.

It is nice to have the application as a preload on LG but we would like to add that RockeTalk is available for free download on over 400 handsets- on both Symbian and JAVA platforms. We work on Nokia, Sony Ericsson, Samsung, LG and a few other phones.

Free downloads available at http://www.rocketalk.com/get_it_now.php or from your mobile phone http://m.rocketalk.com

Depending on the phone’s capabilities, not all features are supported on all the models.

LG India press release:

“GB210 and KP265 come with the RockeTalk feature. RockeTalk is a Social Networking and Instant Messengers aggregation application. The feature lets users log onto Gtalk, Yahoo Messenger, or send a message in any combination of text, voice, pictures, audio or video to anyone, anywhere in the world. With various free online usage options like downloads, video chat messaging, unlimited group chat, unlimited text messaging etc.”

From the  hiptechnology  blog:

Moving beyond the 30 feet range- it gets even better… for when they can use voice give them the RockeTalk , a mobile social networking application. OK, it is the watered down version of Rocketalk. RockeTalk is known for voice and video messaging platform. Of special interest to students- it’s voice chat and video chat and also gives instant access to all the IMs- Yahoo, GTalk, MSN, AOL, ICQ. Hey, thats what everyone wants. Its right there at their fingertips. no need to download, just click on the logo! Word of caution- an unlimited data connection is recommended. Hey- but it works just fine on WiFi. So if you do happen to have access to WiFi, then even the data costs are zero!

Hiptechnology Factoid:

Betcha, even LG did not know this one- both RockeTalk and the Bluetooth technology have something common- the common link is Rajiv Kumar. Rajiv, IIT Mumbai, made significant contribution to the Wireless and Bluetooth (Widcomm) technology and, is also the visionary behind RockeTalk !

The much awaited ‘Mirchi’ release :)

RockeTalk's hot, new 'Mirchi' release

Finally here! The much awaited new release, fondly referred to as the ‘Mirchi’ release because of the new ‘What’s Hot’ look- with flames and a bright red chili pepper, is now available to a limited group of users. It is scheduled to go live for everyone this weekend.

Not everything is visible all at once; there are several changes you will notice as you use the application.  Notable new features added by popular demand:

1. Extended video recording- Yep! You asked for it, you got it. Now you can send longer videos from your phones to other RockeTalkers’ phones or any email address and post your fun videos to the Gallery. All the better for your citizen journalism needs and to send those family video to all your family and friends!

2. Those ever popular Smileys or emoticons – yes they are finally there to use in an easy way.

3. The much asked for BUZZ for friends … well you asked for it, we did it. We made it even more exciting- giving you the option to record your own Buzz. Don’t be surprised when your friends catch you off gaurd sending you some intersting stuff.. lol.. we wish we could see your faces when someone sent you one of those naughty ones.

Hmmm.. not sure what a Buzz is? A Buzz is a way to wake up your friends who are online but are quiet or… use it just for entertainment.. we leave that to your imagination.

You will see little changes happening in the background almost on a daily basis over the next several weeks.

Keep those suggestions coming and we’ll see how we can all work to make your RockeTalk en more fun and meaningful.

Thanks from the bottom of our heart to all Beta testers and our ever expanding,  inner circle of users, our ambassadors. We really appreciate all your help.

If you’d like to be included in our Beta test group for future releases, please contact support@rocketalk.com

Hey- what you waiting for? Check for upgrades on you RockeTalk… Homescreen –> Options –> About –> Check for upgrades :) or vist http://m.rocketalk.com from your phone or check on the website @ www.rocketalk.com

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

girl_power

“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.

RockeTalk-evolution

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
