Announcement: LAUNCH of ushoppa.com

After 50 years of independence, Malaysia will be launching her very first astronaut, Dr Sheikh Muszaphar Shukor into space, TODAY – Oct 10^th 2007. He'll be playing traditional Malay children's games without gravity, paint some batik and making teh tarik (thestar). Oops... correction, correction... after much hoohaa from the public, it's been decided that he should conduct some serious scientific experiments in space. Also, more interestingly, he’ll be the FIRST Muslim in the world to fast and break fast in space (Boston news) during the holy month of Ramadhan.

On this same day, Oct 10^th, the perfect date where perfect completeness meets perfect beauty (十全十美), ushoppa.com is finally and OFFICIALLY LAUNCHED. It is the first online comparative shopping site in Asia that allows users to search by image (shape, texture and colour). It is developed and powered by ewarna.com, a Malaysian IT firm. And it's entirely MIM (Made In Malaysia).

As mentioned in the sneak preview/previous post, you can now start your search-compare-and-shop (see previous post). Just go over to http://www.ushoppa.com/ and kickstart by: clicking on your favourite celeb dresses or “what’s hot” to search for similar items, browse by categories, search items by keying in the keyword, or viewing all items with just a click anywhere that looks like a link if you don’t know where to start (of course this excludes ad links but if you really want to click on the ads, by all means do so :P)

It really is a fun and easy way to shop (check out previous post to find out why). In order to provide such flexibility and convenience, our team of developers from eWarna worked their a**es off to make this happen. Anyway, this site is catered for anyone who loves to shop and have specific items to look for. It saves you precious time and effort. Do check out the site, you’ll never know what you might just find there :)
