“Our agreement with Google makes superior applications available for communications and collaboration, coupled with our understanding of the needs of Indians, on our popular portal Sify.com,” Raju Vegesna, chairman and CEO, Sify Technologies, has said. “This agreement enhances our relationship with Google beyond powering the search on Sify.com.”

One can’t keep on doing the same stuff over and over again across all kinds of brands. Every brand has a unique feature and this needs to be attributed through innovative marketing initiatives. Unless the people working in this medium can innovate, spends will not grow on internet. "
Sify.com is having some browser problems. Home page is not openning properly with IE and Mozilla.
Please tell me solution please.

Google is God...in time everyone will go to them
This is the joke of the day. Why will I go to Sify to use Google mail. Last nail in the coffin for Sify.
Good move by Sify. This will definitely increase their mail base.
Most depressing news of the day.
Sify mail was terrible, but still expected Sify to somehow hold out to Google pressure. Now it has basically accepted defeat to Google... Soon google ads will also power all of sify.
At least, they should have used yahoo mail or live mail. But google???
Tragic. Now there is less choice for consumers.
