India's First Social Connect Powered Website: Infibeam.com

Infibeam.com takes a pioneering step with the launch of the social connect feature. The social connect feature is the first of its kind in India's ecommerce industry and it arrives in the wake of the rising popularity of social networking services the world over. Besides, the ongoing popularity of mobile social networking services has added to its versatility.

Speaking on the launch of the 'social connect' service, Mr. Swaroop Chitlur, Product Manager, Communities, Infibeam.com said "Social networking has surpassed all other forms of communication and networking on the Internet. So we have introduced the social connect service to incorporate social networks into our shopping site to make the experience more fun for the user." He added "As a bonus, users can completely skip the registration step and quickly start using our site. The social connect feature will enable users and prospective shoppers, to log into the shopping site with their already-existing personal accounts".

Users may now use their Facebook, Twitter, Yahoo, Google, Flickr, Blogger, or OpenID accounts, to access the website. Once they are logged in, they may navigate through the site, buy products, post reviews, and experience a great online shopping experience. Users may avail information and participate in the daily quiz and other events, while remaining logged in via their social networking or other personal ids.
