An Unique Application on YouTube - "Barfi" Movie Promotion
Great News for Ranbir Kapoor's Fans
Bollywood movie Barfi is an upcoming Indian romantic comedy. The movie has been directed by Anurag Basu and has Ranbir Kapoor, Priyanka Chopra and Ileana D’Cruz playing as the lead roles in the movie. It is expected to be released on 14th September, 2012 and is all set for creating promotional buzz about the movie.
How is Barfi promoting on YouTube?
UTV Motion Pictures, producers of the movie have chosen a funny and interactive way to create awareness. The makers of the movie have opted for YouTube as the network for creating the online buzz. A dedicate tab has been created – ‘Barfi’ and the tab has all the excitement.
Once you are on the tab, the video that plays has Ranbir Kapoor himself introducing the main lead – Barfi, the filmy character to you. Ranbir goes on sharing some funny bits about Barfi so that fans get to know him. Once that is over, the video turns into an interactive fun-loving app. As a user, you can now get interactive with Barfi. Either you can ask Barfi to show how to impress girls or you can change his mood and Barfi will enact that for you.
Lets say if you want to see how Barfi can dance to impress a girl or how would he flirt then you need to type that and Barfi will do it for you. Similarly, you can change Barfi’s mood by typing. So you can type nerdy, excited, angry, etc. and Barfi will show the different moods in his style. But make sure that you type and then only Barfi gets to know what you want from him. And don’t act smart by typing anything which doesn’t make sense as Barfi is smart and will make a face and walk away!
Is it innovative?
Definitely this is innovative and an engaging idea from the makers of Barfi. The interactive app is not only interesting but designed perfectly. For example, the character Barfi in the movie is a deaf-mute person so the app only works when you type. Additionally, you have the original character Ranbir guiding you on how one should use the app.
The app scores full marks on the design aspect. The app provides a set of words that you can type and Barfi will enact that for you. These are small but significant features and help bring the user one step closer to the online engagement.

Robots.txt “Disallow” and “No Index” Meta Tag - Explanation & Differences
If you are an SEO or are familiar with search engine optimization, the terms “Robots.txt” and “No Index” are somewhere in your vocabulary. If not, the explanation of these is fairly simple: both Robots.txt files and “No Index” meta tags are ways to keep search engines from reading and saving content to their database, known as their “index.” Why would you want to exclude pages from a search engine’s index? Another simple answer: To keep the engines from giving priority to unimportant pages at the cost of the good (i.e. converting) ones. So, let’s get into how the Robots.txt file and “No Index” meta tag operate.
However, “Disallow” means “do not read”, not “do not see.” Disallowing does not make pages invisible; it makes them not crawlable. If inbound links or citations exist to a disallowed page, search engines will still be aware of the disallowed page’s existence. It will simply be unaware of the content of the page. And, in the rare case someone does a search and there are no better results, a search engine will serve up a link to a disallowed page. The link will just be presented without a description.
(Also, as a side note, some smaller search engines don’t use the Robots.txt file. Therefore, disallowed pages will be crawled and indexed by them. )
When to Use Robots.txt “Disallow” and When to Use Meta “No Index” Tag
Every business should assess its own web needs, but for simplicity’s sake, the “No Index” meta is best used on pages you need 100% no index security on or are creating in secret from your competition. In all other cases, Robots.txt “Disallow” will do.
