Is This A 'real' Website?
3 Answers
Can some kind and knowledgeable person please tell me if either of these links lead to a legit site.
I found it in a competition forum but it is all too new and shiny looking for me. I haven't a clue about what they are talking about either - but that may be my stupidity rather than their site.

PS I don't 'need' this information I am just being curious/nosey.

The ownership information on the website checks out with that on GoDaddy's Whois search for the domain name. That shows:
Creation Date: 2011-03-07 23:21:32
Registrant Name: Divyabh Mishra
Registrant Organization: CrowdANALYTIX Solutions Private Limited
Registrant Street: L-703, Shriram Samruddhi Apartments
Registrant Street: Near Kundalahalli Gate
Registrant City: Bangalore
Registrant State/Province: Karnataka
Registrant Postal Code: 560066
Registrant Country: India
Registrant Phone: +91.8041462953
The website appears to be searching for novel computer coding techniques for statistical analysis of data. From the FAQs:
"1) If you accept prize money for your submission in a competition, you need to submit relevant code and algorithms and approve transfer of IP to CrowdANALYTIX.
2) If you accept the position of a Lead Analyst, your work automatically becomes the IP of CrowdANALYTIX.
3) If you propose to use pre-existing IP, you need to discuss and obtain prior approval of CrowdANALYTIX. "
(I think that IP there stands for 'Intellectual Property (Rights)' but I might be totally wrong. Like you, I'm out of my depth).
So it seems to be a legitimate website but (with the possible exception of ChickFickens) there aren't many people around here who could get any value from it.
