Website of the Day: Eyejot

GeekSugar — Mon, 04 Jun 2007 14:00:44 -0700

Do you ever start writing a long email to realize that you'd rather talk to the person over the phone? Well eyejot is a cool new site that may help you if you want to send someone a personal message but you don't have the time to chat for hours over the phone. Eyejot combines features from email and live video chat by creating an easy to use platform where people can send video messages (from your webcam or iSight) to friends and family in seconds. The best part about this "videomail" application is the fact that you don't have to install any software. To learn how to post your favorite sites to the Website of the Day group, just read more

I know that this long list looks scary, but trust me, once you get the hang of it, it'll be a snap the second time around.

First of all, join the Website of the Day group
Click "Create and Share!" on the left hand side
Choose "Blog"
Give your photo a Title
Leave the category as "general"
Change the channel to "technology and gadgets"
Add keyword(s) (for example mine for this photo was "Website of the Day")
Click on the "Add Image" link below the "body" box
A popup window will happen - click on "Browse" to find your image on your computer
Once you have the image chosen, click "Submit"
The popup will show you your image, choose size: "normal" - if you want, you can give it a title (which will show up as a caption)
Click "Insert" and the popup will go away
Your "body" box will now have some text in it. Leave it as is. If you want to add some text before the picture telling me why you love the website, do it before the code that has appeared.
Click Submit
