They're not going to be interested because Linux doesn't have much of a market. Indiatimes users are mostly on Windows, so it's not going to be worth the effort to develop a Linux client.
It costs money, after all. Maybe you can offer to do it as an open source project (just tie up Everybuddy with Indiatimes servers).

Hi, Though the question may seem trivial there is a significant confusion in my mind.
I used to think (becoz we were tought so) the number of data lines dictates the bit computing the microprocessor is referred to. That is 8085 had 8 data lines so it was 8 bit mp, 8086 had 16 so it was 16 bit etc. However pentium-66 itself has 64 data lines. WHY THEN PENTIUM IS CALLED 32 bit mp?? Now mai-baap Intel is tomtomming about 64 bit ITENIUM. What is the significance?
Apart from that what do people mean when they say that the file system is 32 bit or file system is XX bits?? Can a 64 bit file system run on 32 bit mp (theoritically)??
