SeeStorm Messenger

From SeeStorm:

SeeStorm Messenger is a new and exciting speech and visual communication tool for the net. With SeeStorm Messenger you can talk naturally over the Internet like you do over the phone - but for free - plus visually communicate your emotions and facial expressions.

SeeStorm 3D talking heads act and speak in synch with your voice and display true-to-life behavior, providing an enhanced level of expressiveness simply not possible in a text-based chat. The 3D characters you choose also empower you to decide who you want to be online. Be James Bond, a US President, or someone else. Getting SeeStorm Messenger is easy - download the program (2.2Mb) for free, choose a 3D character, and start speaking with your friends in real time using a standard PC equipped with a microphone and 28 kbps modem - no special hardware is required!

SeeStorm Messenger allows you to talk and listen at the same time without having to use a "push-to-talk" button. This is cool because, unlike with other voice over IP products, you don't have to wait for the other guy to stop talking before you can jump in and express yourself. When you giggle, smirk and boo you are immediately heard by the other party. This gives you the freedom to totally enjoy hands-free communication. In a word - it rocks!

Another opportunity is creating the avatar that looks exactly like a certain human. SeeStorm has developed in-house technology of creating such avatars from one or two photos of a person. Many users will want to have a special avatar -"just myself". This character sales may be most popular, when the user wants to communicate with family, friends and associates.
