Say hello to Gmail voice and video chat.
Gtalk, which is a desktop application for chatting and voice chat (as differentiated to Gmail chat, which is a built in chat function within Gmail), already used to offer voice chat.
This time, Gmail chat offers voice chat plus the VIDEO CHAT.
Now, Gmail chat surely is a great (and maybe even better) alternative to YM.
I’ve known a person or two who always log in into Yahoo! Messenger in an invisible mode. I don’t trust those type of persons (hehe, peace! whoever you are). XEEBER is an online application that can detect invisible users on Yahoo! Messenger. Now you can’t hide from me anymore! :)
Selaplana broke this news today.
I remembered my previous posts regarding Yahoo! Mail here and here. I instantaneously opened my Yahoo! Mail today and guess what I found:
I switched back to the new Yahoo! Mail beta and more surprises:
Checking out further, however, my other Yahoo! Mail accounts are not yet upgraded with these features. As what Yahoo! mentioned in its blog, they will be rolling out these features over a few months, so it will hit each account one by one. You just have to wait and check your inbox regularly.
So, what do I think of these new developments? I think it’s cool! Any further comments? No! :LOL:
Beginning Monday, some Yahoo Mail users will be able to chat in real time through their e-mail program. Yahoo said in November that it would embed instant-messaging technology directly into its Yahoo Mail program so that users wouldn’t have to open up–or even install–Yahoo Messenger or another IM ,service to chat with each other online.
From CNET
It appears that Yahoo! is ready to compete head to head against the mighty Google, huh! (with the latter’s Gmail chat). I wonder if it can function well against the firewall here in the office. I’m looking forward to trying this new feature though, and I’m excited on how it will look like within Yahoo! Mail.
Yet, this news will “never” alter my preference of using Gmail over Yahoo! Mail. And the reason is up in my next posts!
