This is important move. Paadal is now ONE brand and ONE product. Initially when I thought about the concept of stations, I figured it would be a good idea to have a new application. This is a bad decision for 3 reasons,

1. For a tiny site like Paadal, its hard to maintain 2 brands and it segregates the audience.

2. FM domain costs more than COM. The smaller the costs, the longer the application can live to serve its purpose.

3. If you are a techie you will know that maintaining 2 applications (sharing code, deployment etc) is harder than one.

Paadal Radio is not yet fully integrated. The plan is to move the radio player to the popup window as well. Google Login & Facebook Login will be added soon.

In future, i will also start working on some of the requested features in the feedback section.

Thanks for waiting and I appreciate your patience.

If you are reading this, you probably would have explored the site. During your exploration, if the phrase “Its crazy dead simple” came to your mind, then the site lived its purpose. Paadal.com is designed to be simple and care is taken to avoid the usual bloat found in every other site. Hey, we don’t ask for your age/country while signing up. Just username, password, email and done! Who cares where you live, anyways?

The other difference you probably would have noticed is “No Ads”. Thats right! No “free ipod” ads to bother you in the middle of an Ilayaraja melody. No “Sexy Singles” popup to make you uncomfortable when opening the site at work.

This blog is the best place to find updates about new features and bug fixes (obviously, since the application is in beta).

My intention is to take this site as per your willing. Your feedback is important since it lays the foundation for new features and updates.

Please use comments for feedback.
