Video email renewed by Eyejot
-

Broadband access is cheaper, as a result, online video services like YouTube could now be a viable business. But so do video email services. Eyejot is one of them. Showcased at the Demo 2007, the service is a free video email that doesn’t require any software download. Instead, it relies on some Flash technologies to take control of the computer webcam.
Users record their messages online, stored them into their account and include the link into emails or instant messengers. Quite traditional functions. But to make it more viral, Eyejot also provides a widget to let members embed a video greeting on their web site and allow visitors to reply to them directly from the addon. For the record, we recently reported about Flikzor which does the same, and SightSpeed has been providing the service more than a year with good image quality.
Eyejot’s free version is advertising-supported, messages are limited to 30 seconds each. Not that cool, but the $5 per month paid version takes away those limitations.

If you’re impressed with eyeyjot, you’ll love gabmail and gabjam (www.freegabmail.com). You can use any email or webmail client, no download or registration, unlimited number of free messages of up to two minutes in length. Best part is that every message is threaded so you can access any video in a thread with a single click. Much more robust and even easier to use! Nick.
