Sify launches video site for Chennai

MUMBAI: Consumer portal Sify.com has launched www.chennailive.in, the first website for Chennai with live video streaming.

The website was launched by Tamil Nadu IT Secretary Dr C Chandramouli.

After the success of mumbailive.in, bangalorelive.in, hyderabadlive.in, chennailive.in is the fourth city portal from Sify.com. A key feature of www.chennialive.in is live video feeds from traffic web-cams stationed at key junctions of the city so citizens can plan their routes by checking the site for the prevailing traffic conditions. Users will have access to live video streaming of the traffic in the city at any given point of time.

 
Dr Chandramouli said, “I am happy to launch Chennailive.in, the first site with live video streaming. With its exciting and extensive city-centric content, the website will enable Chennai citizens to keep in touch with happenings in the city anytime, anywhere. It’s also a great way for the people who live overseas to stay in touch with their favourite city”.

Sify president, portals V. Sivaramakrishnan said, “We are delighted to launch chennailive.in as part of our strategy to provide the best access to information about the city, and as a way for people to keep in touch with their city. This is the best place on the web to get local information for the citizens in each of these cities. We intend to introduce more such city-centric websites to create online communities as a platform to share their views, discuss local topics and build their own personal space online”

The site www.chennailive.in will include video sections across categories like information on the latest happenings in the city (Chennai Diary), gossip & updates on Tamil movies (Kollywood Masala), video reviews of the most happening hot spots in Chennai (Hangouts), hottest deals (Chennai Bazaar), reviews of the best know eateries (Meals Ready), and many more.
