Orgoo=邮件+IM+网页视频聊天

之前我们介绍8hands和digsby时,曾谈到邮件、IM、社群信息的统一管理是一个趋势,今天要介绍的Orgoo就占了其中两样,一是邮件服务,二是IM。orgoo的邮件服务不是像digsby那样只是邮件提醒功能,而是真的会给你一个信箱(3G),用这个信箱或者用导入的其他信箱收发邮件(POP/IMAP)。下面是它的操作界面的模样。点击看大图。

页面左侧的工具栏是邮箱、IM日志列表,可以导入的邮箱包括gmail、Y!mail、aol mail。右侧则是导入的IM,包括msn messenger、yahoo messenger、AIM、gtalk、icq。中间的部分则是撰写邮件、聊天窗口的界面。

除了上面提到的功能之外,一个即将诞生的功能是网页内的视频聊天,现在还没有正式融入到上面这个界面中,有一个试验版,大家可以体验一下。操作方式和我们昨天说过的mebeam差不多,为聊天室起个名字,然后把链接告诉朋友们就行了。

Orgoo Throws Hat into Video Chat Ring 

(via Techcrunch) Orgoo, the long-anticipated, all-in-one, browser-based communications suite that presented at TechCrunch40 last fall, is releasing a new video chat service to the public today. This comes ahead of a general release of its email, IM, and SMS tools, which remain in private beta. Read more.

5G!最大附件上传,AOL提供

无论是哪一款的邮箱,都会对附件的大小作出限制,大小一般不会超过20M,这不得不说是一个遗憾,于是出现了YousenditMailbigfile等临时存储、发送附件的替代品,但是即使这样,也还是存在附件大小限制的问题,免费服务一般不超过100M。

AOL似乎要解决这个问题了,它拥有一个出色的邮件服务Aol mail,还有一个免费用户也能获得5G存储空间的在线存储服务Xdrive。Aol要把两项服务结合起来,当你发送的附件超过16M时,它会自动把文件上传到Xdrive里(这需要你有一个Xdrive帐号),你的收件人会在自己的信箱里看到这个附件的链接,并可以点击这个链接下载文件。见下图。

另外,你也可以在Xdrive里设置把aol mail中含有的附件都自动保存到Xdrive上来。

遗憾的是,我第一次想粘帖1个adobe reader.exe,第二次想粘帖1个20M的音频文件,但是两次都没有成功上传到Xdrive,也许是这项服务刚刚开始、还不完善的缘故吧。

看来,围绕附件展开的邮箱大战又要开始了,下一个参展者该是google吧。

Send 5GB attachment via Aol mail+Aol Xdrive

Whatever mail you use, it has attachment size limited, so YousenditMailbigfile hit the nitch to provide large attachment sending service, but they have  size limited too, usually can’t be above 100MB  for the free account user.

Now we have chance to pull the limit up to 5G. This is a new service provided by Aol. Aol has a mail cilent Aol mail and an online storage service Xdrive. Now Aol integrate the two service to allow mail user to send an attachment up to 5G.When the attachment size is above 16M, it will automatically upload to your Xdrive account(of course you need sign up one).There will be a clickable url in the mail,your recipient clicks on it to download the attachment file.

I tried twice,the first time is an adobe reader.exe, another time is an audio file, but they both failed to uploader to Xdrive. Maybe the service is just open and not stable yet.
