Shopping in best stores at home
WANT TO shop in best of the stores around the country? Sounds
good? Obviously, the thought of getting goods delivered at home
sounds pleasing to the ears. And when the choice of ordering the
goods without visiting the shops comes along with they being
delivered at home, it's bound to make the mundane life more
interesting.
In an info era where ideas go stale in minutes, the biggest
hurdle for the concept has been limitations like payments only
`through' credit cards and affordability of a computer at home.
But wait, a unique concept `Enter-Net' launched jointly by Sigma
Online, an Internet Service Provider, and Webveda.com, a leading
Indian portal, promises to wipe out those shortcomings.
Enter-Net zones will form the single window points for anything
and everything on the Net. These zones will be provided with
dedicated lines powered by high bandwidth which increases the
access speeds multifold thus enhancing the traffic to these
zones.
The concept will have noted cyber cafes across the country as
partners and 1,000 of them have been identified for the purpose.
Many top Internet cafes in the city too will have the facility.
So you can just walk into them, browse the world and order
whatever you wish. Don't worry if you don't own a credit card,
you can pay the money at the identified cyber cafes in cash or
through a cheque.
As the Enter-Net will increase the access speeds, the browsing
community can have faster access and quick downloads. So, no more
those painful waits in front of the computers as you can get the
site on the screen at the touch of the key. Now that sounds very
pleasing to the ears, ain't it?
