Rochester, NY (PRWEB) March 20, 2008 -- dotSyntax, an instant messaging startup, today announced the public beta launch of Digsby, a product that integrates management of instant messaging, e-mail, and social network accounts into one easy-to-use application.
With today's launch, Digsby leaves private beta testing and introduces several highly requested features including Twitter support, inline spell check and real time audio/video chat across IM networks through a partnership with TokBox. The new features expand on the existing solution, which aims to simplify the management of multiple online accounts. User benefits include:
- One combined buddy list for AIM, MSN, Yahoo, ICQ, Google Talk, and Jabber accounts with duplicate contact merging, tabbed conversation windows and two way SMS from within the IM window
- New e-mail alerts for Hotmail, Gmail, Yahoo Mail, AOL/AIM Mail, IMAP, and POP accounts, as well as, an Inbox Snapshot view that allows users to perform actions like "Mark as Read" and "Report Spam" with one click
- Real time newsfeed for Facebook, MySpace, and Twitter friend events like status changes, new photos, and upcoming birthdays, along with alerts for events like friend requests, new messages, and group invites
- Personalized look and feel with various application skins, conversation themes, and extensive buddy list layout options
"Online account management is cumbersome due to lack of interoperability and the need to manage accounts across multiple mediums," said Steve Shapiro, president of dotSyntax, "We think Digsby will be the preferred platform for high efficiency digital communication through our easy-to-use combined account management and integration."
