Buzzintown, a premier internet portal dedicated to the promotion of events and entertainment in India, today launched a new 4.0 version of their portal available at Buzzintown.com. The R4.0 version offers a more streamlined view to the portal and improves the overall user experience. R4.0 displays additional features and includes various functionalities such as Internet TV, improved search options, Buzzintown recommendation & suggestions and variety of advertising possibilities.

Dr. Amitabh Saran the co-founder and managing director of Buzzintown said, “Buzzintown R4.0 is loaded with enhanced features that will deliver a superior experience to our users and sets a new standard for entertainment portals around the world. The new content places people at the heart of what’s happening in their city and allows for an entirely new user experience.”

The new features of version R4.0 include Buzz Picks for the Day, which has Buzzintown recommendations for three of the most happening events in a particular city on that day; India Buzz, a feature to identify top events happening in other cities across the country and Phoren Buzz, a feature which informs aspirational travellers about an interesting & unique event taking place in the world on that day.  Perhaps the most notable addition is an entirely new section of Internet TV – Buzzin’ TV. It features a big database of programs/episodes from various channels, so surfers can watch their favorite show if they missed the original telecast! Buzzintown is doing pioneering work in this area – by also releasing original content not yet available on standard cable/DTH. Designed with an eye for a workable and fresh look, Buzzintown is jam-packed with event related news, reviews, features and more on both national and local artists while the movie sections also feature up-to-the-minute releases, forthcoming releases, reviews and much more.

The content for the site is sourced from all stakeholders in the entertainment industry i.e. portal users, event managers, artists, companies etc. Ratings and evaluations of events are done by the audience and users can also join communities for shared interests in music, sports etc. The portal currently has over a million registered users, with 7 million page visits a month depending on the month.
