Good move. Isn't webdunia the 2nd or 3rd player in language classifieds?

Although I’m slightly skeptical about the numbers… I still think this is a brilliant idea to reach the targeted netizens and an excellent move in the direction of localization. Going by Sukhwinder Singh Cassedy’s comments in a recent interview, even Google seems to be headed in the same direction. Wishing you guys luck!
