Eterno Infotech, a pioneer in innovative mobile applications released its latest mobile app, NewsHunt. The app read popular newspapers in both English and local languages on the mobile phones. Presently it offers a total of 15 newspapers in several languages and include Indian dailies on more than 500 devices. I guess such an app that brings the local dailies to the phone makes reading news on the go a very easy thing, making sure everyone is well informed.



Hi Startupmeme team !
Classifying Newshunt as mobile application would be underestimation of its potential.IRS 09 findings are some indicative towards its unlocked potential.

Literacy is up & with 4.5 crore additional new readers, the new readers are most likely to read a newspaper in their own language rather than in English.
Internet in India remained prerogative & unacceptable to Non-English audience.And riding on the mobile boom – NewsHunt has the one holding huge promise of ‘Internet for mass’.
I would wait for more detailed coverage on language/vernacular news market in India.
Thanks!
