Zook.in

Zook.in, which is very popular mobile answer service in India and which I first heard about by listening to the Kamla Bhatt show, is expanding internationally.

Here are the highlights of Zook’s service:

  • According to Zook, their service ideal for local and media queries.
  • It’s designed to provide users with “exactly what they want” – the so called 1-Click answers.
  • Both Zook’s database and a number of other search engines are used, including Yahoo!, Microsoft, YouTube, etc.
  • The technology behind Zook uses a self-learning system which automatically learns user requirements and modifies the answer extraction and result ordering based on user queries and community-wide usage.

Want to give it a try? Simply point your mobile browser to zook.in and take it from there.

The idea of accessing and managing your information from any device no matter where you are simply amazes him. Whether it's an online to-do list, note taking service or a video sharing social network, he's there to try it out. He admits though, he's still searching for the ultimate web-based organizational tool, which "sings" perfectly with the mobile PIM application.
