IM, VoIP, desktop, and file sharing in one place - Yakkle
Sunday, February 17th, 2008
You may have used an instant messaging tool like AIM or Yahoo Chat or Google Talk and know that you can send text messages to your family, friends, co-workers and associates. Yakkle does instant messaging too, but it also allows you to use your PC to transmit your voice to your friends and to share your desktop with them all from within a single application. It’s kind of a triple-play. Now you can connect with anyone on the internet, send them a “hi”, speak with them using superb sound quality and show them anything you have on your PC, like photos or documents. You can even let them control your mouse and keyboard from their computer.
You can register for a Yakkle account for free, but you don’t necessarily need one to use the application. You can also login using a Jabber or Gmail user name and ID.
Yakkle is Windows XP and Vista only for now, and requires Java to run.
