Great news from the team at SpinVox, their new service has enabled Voice-Driven posts to popular social networking services such as Facebook, Jaiku and Twitter. Just speak your post into any mobile handset and Social Networks through SpinVox will create the text and post it for you. No need to send an email, SMS etc.
London, UK. – October 25 2007
The power of social networking and microblogging increased significantly today with the announcement from SpinVox, the global leader in Voice-to-Screen messaging, that posting on Facebook, Jaiku and Twitter can be now achieved simply by using your voice. `Social Networks through SpinVox` enables voice-driven social networking from any mobile phone.
No need to wait for web access or use a keyboard
Now bloggers can generate posts by simply speaking into any mobile handset. Social Networks through SpinVox then automatically creates text and then posts directly to their chosen sites. People can now contribute to Facebook, Jaiku or Twitter wherever they are – no need to send an SMS, try to log on to the web from a mobile or wait until they get home and are online. If a user wants to share something immediately with their online community – an urgent piece of news, a review of a great film or their latest holiday adventure – they can. Bloggers are no longer off-line just because they’re out and about. It can all be done through a simple phone call.
‘SpinVox is all about using voice to enable person-to-person messaging through any network or service – whether by SMS text, email, blog, or social network walls and spaces,†said Christina Domecq, CEO and co-founder of SpinVox.
‘The use of social networks and micro-blogging sites has exploded in the past few years, but, so far, they’ve lacked true mobility and so are not achieving their full potential. Whether you’ve just walked out of a concert or have discovered a great new place to eat, your voice can now be used in place of the keyboard to tell the world the news and capture your thoughts, emotions and experiences `in the moment` as and when they happen.â€Â
