Breaking: In.com Integrates Gmail, Windows Live Mail, Yahoo mail & Rediffmail Login - Also Integrates Burrp & Bookmyshow
In.com has done a bunch of feature and vertical addition to its horizontal portal. Recently we had blogged about all Web18 properties being brought under the in.com basket now it seems In.com is taking the concept of integration beyond Web18 properties. In.com has integrated mail logins for gmail, hotmail, yahoomail and rediffmail all together at In.com homepage. One can actually check the last 7 emails recieved right from In.com hompage for across gmail, hotmail, yahoo mail and rediff mail as well.
Have a look at the screenshot below:
The other new addition to the in.com homepage seems to be Events from burrp and Ticket Booking from bookmyshow.com.
Check screenshot below:
While bookmyshow is a Web18 initiative and hence the integration makes sense for Burrp this is probably their biggest tie up as being on the homepage of In.com (which is India’s no.2 portal already) is a big thrust to their traction. As most people know Network18 CEO Haresh Chawla has a personal investment in Burrp and from what I hear Burrp has shifted its office to the Web18 office in Mumbai now which kind of indicates a possible future investment by Network18/Capital18 in burrp going forward.
Besides for the above two features In.com has also added a new vertical that of Downloads where its providing downloads for software, wallpapers, ringtones and games. The software download should surely be a hit with techies looking for cool downloads.
All in all In.com seems to be constantly innovating and adding new features and while Rediff is looking to go regional and cater to the next 50 million I feel In.com seems to be fast heading towards becoming the no.1 portal for the first 50 million users in India with all the feature additions it has made lately.

that’s the lamest thing they could ever day, why on earth would i be interested in entering my username password on some other website, whatever happened to oAuth and openID. seriously if only they actually cared about user security more.
They have also integrated rss feeds from all the major websites I visit in India right there on the homepage. Wow, I sence a social media integration coming up
moreever in.com doesnt even encrypt passwords ..nor does use ssl (https) …
so be careful entering your gmail, yahoo user details …
