BOOKS} Titles at discounts
Two friends Shiv Kapoor and Aneesh Satnaliwala had an unpleasant experience when they found a book they had ordered, available at a significantly cheaper price at another online store just a few days after buying it. The realisation left them thinking of ways to deal with this discrepancy in rates; from this was born This Ya That, a small idea, which was transformed into a business proposition. The website Thisyathat.com allows you to compare book prices posted on various e-commerce sites, to help you pick the best and the cheapest.

FILM & THEATRE} Spare ticket, anyone?
Getting a ticket for a movie or a play when you want it the most isn’t always the easiest. But now it can become a reality. Bangalore-based product startup, Iglulabs, has conceptualised a site that comes to your rescue when you either have an extra ticket on you that you want to sell or want to get a ticket when the box office holds the houseful board. The service called spareticket.in lets you give away spare tickets at the last-minute or find one at any time. Currently, the service is available in Delhi, Mumbai and Bangalore but the founders of the site are planning to launch a smartphone application soon, which will allow users to browse through the spare ticket list on their phone.
