Saturday, September 19th, 2009

Extremely unbelievable. Now you don’t have to go to the IMAX to get the superb 3D feel while watching Blockbusters. Just imagining the fact that we could be watching “Iron Man 2″ or the next Spiderman on 3D within a year is making my mouth and eyes thirst for the experience.

Well GREAT NEWS from Twitter, (i think this week should be named Social Networking Week with al the Milestones and great new features everyone is coming up with)

According to CNET.com (sorry CNN.com), read below…

Call from your tweet...Pic courtesy of CNET.com


Twitter users on Thursday will, for the first time, be able to make voice calls directly to each other through the microblogging service.
A new third-party offering from Jajah known as Jajah@call is expected to go into beta Thursday morning that will allow Twitter users to initiate a two-way voice chat with other users by typing “@call @username” — where “username” is someone’s Twitter ID — into any Twitter client.
During the beta period, the company said, the calls will be limited to two minutes, but the company will evaluate that length during beta. However, it sees the two minute period, after which the call will end, as “the verbal equivalent of a tweet.”
According to Jajah, an Internet communications provider with tens of millions of users, the service will allow a user to place a call to any other user, so long as the second person follows the first on Twitter and both have Jajah accounts.
The service is free to use and is expected to work on any Twitter-enabled device, from PCs to smart phones.
One important element of the service is that users can keep their phone numbers private, yet be able to have voice chats with just about anyone on Twitter. To be sure, since the calls are initiated by one person, the recipient may well not be online, or may choose to ignore the call if they don’t want to talk.
