Yahoo! launches messenger with voice.
Monday, August 22, 2005 - 08:07
Yahoo launched its new instant client message program that enables people to
talk PC-to-PC VOIP (Voice over IP). It's almost like all known chat programs
like ICQ or Messenger, but this one supports voice chat. The only thing that
is needed is that when two people talk, there would have microphones or speakers
and the Yahoo Messenger itself. To star a call is as simple as chatting: double-click
on the phone icon that appears on the person's info. In that way you'll be inviting
the other person to talk. If he or she agrees, a notification there will appear
and after approved, it would be it.
Many other features will come together with this Yahoo's brand new instant
messenger. Much as the option to decline conversation, a handful of ring tones,
call log, free voice mail, a retooled photo-sharing feature. And yet, a very
encouraging contest: from August 15th to September 5th, those who try this service
will be competing to win a trip to visit a family member or a friend anywhere
in the world.
