Scrabulous scrapped from Facebook

The long awaited decision on the fight between Facebook and the makers of the game - Scrabble has come to an end finally with the later emerging as the winners.

The legal proceedings against the app had started in January when Mattel (the makers of the game) decided that Scrabulous was infringing on copyright and trademarks.

The makers of the game are Rjat and Jayant Agarwalla based in India and if you are in India you can still play the game as the Indian courts are still deciding on this issue.

We will keep you informed on the Indian court rulings, but for the moment it looks very much like the end of Scrabulous.

The Information and Broadcasting ministry has ruled the Axing of the Axe Effect deodorant advertisement too vulgar and indecent for viewing.

The advertisement has been on air since a few weeks now and shows a man using the chocolate version of - The Axe Effect, Deodorant - which turns him into a chocolate man. As a result making him the most desirable object. Women go flocking by him biting him away and cherishing the taste of chocolate.

The I&B ministry has now deemed this ad to be too vulgar and has taken steps in taking the advertisement off air from today itself. There have been quite a few instances where the ministry has stepped in to take such action. Lux Cozy , Gen-X and Amul Macho to name a few ads.

The Apple iPhone 3G launch has taken the Indian mobile phone industry by storm. Now we are hearing noises from the Nokia, Samsung, and Motorola camp that they are planning to launch cheaper full touchscreen phones in competition to the iPhone.

They plan to launch similar Multi-touch interface phones and that too at a lower price. There is also word from top managements that the companies are working on an online store for music to compete with the prevailing iTunes from Apple Inc.

A study done shows that over 40% of the phones will be touchscreen phones by the start of the year 2012. This has put every mobile manufacturer on their toes and they are all out to outdo each other.

Currently Nokia has a 70% market share in the Indian mobile phone industry and the company are looking to keep the figures that way.
