Synopsis: Voxox is a free software for instant messaging, international calls or for contacting with friends on Facebook. It is capable of dynamic translation.
It is not the first time that I am telling you about a free application for video conferencing and IP telephony. Even before we've talked about Ekiga, Skype and more recently on ooVoo, but today we will discuss about Voxox, an application that has other attractive benefits.
Voxox appeared on the scene in November 2008. At that time i was in Beta, it can not be considered a new application, the interesting thing about this App is that it goes a step beyond the classic blends Skype and provision of voice over IP service with 2 other forms of communication that are growing: the messaging and social networks.
You can download the Voxox software to control the Facebook, Twitter, MySpace, Live Messenger, Google Talk, Yahoo Messenger, Jabber, AIM and other services from a single client in your accounts. In addition to having course, the possibility of making calls and video calls anywhere in the world.
Its interface is very similar to the iPhone of Apple and is divided into four tabs, of which marked contacts, it keeps the lists of your contacts in your preferred networks. The program will automatically connect them all, so you can keep abreast of all that happens. In fact, you can chat with contacts and friends from all your accounts, manage contacts and send messages to social networks and also as with Skype, you can make free international calls from PC to PC. For telephone calls between each other there is a charge which is, as in the case of all similar services, cheaper than if you were using your phone service for direct international call.
Voxox offers some benefits that exceed those of Skype, such as assign a toll free number so, you can receive calls on the desktop of your PC, rather than charge for it as does Skype. It also has services related to your fixed and mobile phones, if you decide to activate and use the service, you have a permit from voice mail service to send messages directly from the system to any of the contacts who have associated with instant messaging accounts without cost to you.
I have also learned that in some places some of the fares are lower than Skype, though on the latter should do a check to see if in your country the cost is reasonable.
But something else Voxox incorporates the ability to translate messages and chat channels proactively. You can write in your language knowing that your partner will understand the message through translation of Voxox and, in the same way you respond in your language and you will receive the translated version.
Want to see how you do it? just visit the you tube and search the video by typing keyword " Voxox translation Video", you will get various video. Watch the video whichever you want and get idea of it's functioning.
To my knowledge, is currently available for Windows and Mac, although there are rumors they will soon have versions for smartphones and distributions Linux as Ubuntu or Debian.
And of course, has certain requirements: It is compatible with PCs run on Windows XP, and Windows 7, while the Mac will have to run with at least Mac OS X v 10.5 (Leopard).
It also requires at least a 1 GHz Intel processor, 256 MB memory and 70 MB free disk space. Of course you must register (free) on their website.
