Mumbai: Nasdaq-listed portal Rediff.com, has announced the launch of a gaming section on its website that combines features of social networking along with it. Though there are a variety of websites offering online gaming, the product offering is different because it has social networking features embedded, Rediff's Associate Director for Product Development, Prerana Nayak, told reporters here. Using the application, one can invite friends to play a particular game, let others know of their performance, or just discuss about the game, she said. The Mumbai-headquartered website currently offers games in different genres like action, cards, classics and cards. It is an open platform wherein any developer can come and host his games, Nayak said, adding seven developers including Indiagames and Disney India are already on board with their respective product offerings. "More than earning from the application, the application is directed more towards engaging our users.
