[by Cerius Shah] NDTV Convergence has relaunched NDTVProfit.com, the online version of its business news channel. According to this note by Sanjay Trehan, CEO, NDTV Convergence, the site aims to be “an online personal finance manager with news you can use.”

They have their anchors posting columns and an autoplay video to the right. I signed up for the Portfolio tracker but hit a road block on the level 2 page, couldn’t input the name of the portfolio, seems to be an issue with the site rendering on Firefox. The site, which is currently in beta, has a QnA section along with a dedicated helpline for users.

Nikhil adds: How much thought is really given to usability? Autoplay videos leech my 256kbps connection. Of course, NDTV isn’t the only one subjecting us to videos without asking us to opt-in: Nautanki.tv and MSN’s Desktop TV are (were?) worse - they’d autostart after a gap, even if you paused them. Also - what’s happened to Moneycontrol.com? With every visit, one is hit with a truckload of users-be-damned popups and soshkeles.
