In a joint statement the two founders and developers of qeep, Cornelius Rost and Christian Schulte, said, "Already, India contributes to 20 percent of the 300,000 members in qeep. We are confident that in the next three months the percentage will rise significantly. The whole essence of qeep is to build a global community of like-minded people. It is an international community that has no barriers and borders. Currently there are people from 160 countries and over 3,000 people joining everyday worldwide."

The joint statement adds that qeep enables people to communicate with friends when commuting to and from work, in short breaks and during waiting and travel periods in the bus or local train. One can easily be in contact with his/her friends by writing private messages or indulge in playing a live-game or even make new acquaintances. The use of qeep might endure only for a few minutes, which is enough to read and answer new messages or look at a friend’s new photos. Hundreds of people are always online with their mobiles and are inviting each other to live games, photo blogging and sound attacks – all for free.

Finding people with similar interests like music, gaming, movies, books, art or fashion is easy, as users give a short summary of their interests on their profiles. qeepers can send invites to people they want to be friends with or can just 'nudge' them or send a QMS.

qeep can be downloaded free of cost from http://www.qeep.net or via the WAP portal http://wap.qeep.net.
