Cleartrip has always been one of my favorite startup. This company has everything which one can think in a good company. Moreover, every now and then they come up with small small things that really makes travel simpler. They already have a train search engine which is dead simple to use(way better than its alternatives). And now they have come up with another app, which is a innovative use of IM for search.
Here it is : Chat Bot Search and Booking Agent For Trains
Update: Cleartrips Gmail ID went overlimit, so now onward add cleartrip.trains@jabber.org
A user just needs to add cleartrip.trains@gmail.com to any Jabber compliant instant messenger like Google Talk, GMail, iChat and others available here.
Isn't it really handy. For checking availability all you need is to just shoot a query in chat message.
Well I just tested this feature. Works great. Real handy. They also give u a url in case u want to book. Hey good to see u starting a blog. Keep it up.
its really a great idea used by cleartrip… now its very easy and handy to check availability using gtalk..
