Now this is interesting. How would you like to participate in the T&T list,
but by speaking to the other members and listening to their answers, instead
of writing e-mails? OK, so it may not be practical because of time
differences, but it's sure possible now. Check out this site:
http://www.yackpack.com/ Might have some great applications for some
pre-planned voice meetings... say everybody hook up at xxGMT to discuss
liferafts, live!
YackPack makes it easy for groups to communicate,
using your own voice and an ordinary Mac or PC. YackPack is simple:
You just click and talk. No typing required - and no software to install.
YackPack is ideal for groups such as:
- Work Teams
- Education Classes
- Family Groups
Your group can use YackPack in two ways: Live Voice & Voice Messaging.
In both modes the richness of voice helps people communicate easily and
clearly, avoiding the misunderstandings caused by email. For this reason, a
Stanford University psychologist invented YackPack.
Live Voice
Talking with your group is easy with Live Voice. You push the "LIVE"
button and talk into your computer microphone. Everyone logged in can hear
you. When your group members respond, you can see who's talking. If you stay
logged in all day, your group stays connected, allowing you to talk any
time. (Click to watch short video.)
Voice Messaging
With YackPack you can also send voice messages in three steps: click,
talk, and send. The recipients then get an email saying you've sent a
message. They click on a link to login and listen. You can send messages to
one person or everyone in your group at once. (Click to watch short video.)
If desired, you can put YackPack on your own website in less than 30
minutes. This means members of your group go to your own website to use
YackPack. (Click to learn more.)
