Boycott Times of India

Boycott Times of India

I come from India and love to check whats going on in that land  on a daily basis.
I used to live in Bombay and used to worked near the Times of India building.

I really like the physical version of the paper for example http://epaper.timesofindia.com

It is appaling and i cant understand why I  get bugged with pop ups ads ( shaadi.com) whenever i visit that site. For those of you who dont know shaadi.com is like match.com

a) I am not in the market looking for a match ( My wife and two kids should be proof enough for that)

b) If at all you have no other revenue steam , altlease show some intelligent ads that i many not  mind watching. Show something on technology, Agile development.
I am competely put off sites that have no data whatsoever and simply throw a pop up . Hello there is something called as data analysis.

There is a secret to making money in the business. If you visit the times of india building in Bombay, the grond floor of the parking lot (one full section) was dedicated to the expensive cars that times of india executives drove.
How much more greedy you want to get.

If you really want to make money write excellent articles. Learn from other sites.
IBN CNN, slashdot,CNN, reuters etc. If you make me come more to  your site, i may end up
reading more of your  news.

Wonder why people are not angry at this.

I tried after a year http://www.timesofindia.com. Before i read the first news item, I had to bear with the stupid pop up.

If you read time of india please do me a favor, write about your user experience.

May be they will see the light
