Eyejot Introduces More New Features

Eyejot has released new features today that further enhances and extends the functionality of our popular video mail platform.

Address Book Editing
Straight from the what took them so long department... We've just made it so you can edit your existing address book entries! You can change the first and last names of anyone in your address book.

SMS Alerts
We've also enabled SMS alerts for our PRO and PRO Plus members. Now they can get alerted on their mobile phones moments after receiving a new Eyejot. And, users with phones capable of displaying video (like an iPhone, Blackberry Curve/Pearl, Google G1, Windows Mobile device, etc.) will be able to watch their Eyejot messages directly on their phones! Jeff Turner posted an example of using both these  feature.

Time Zone Support
Since our platform was used by people in 129 different countries this month we  thought it was about time we supported local time zones. So, now you can tell Eyejot which time zone you're in and we'll adjust all our dates and times to match.

PayPal Support
We receive emails from time to time from our users asking for PayPal support. So, we've added PayPal as a secondary payment gateway that you can use for upgrading your account to PRO or PRO Plus.

We've got even more surprises planned for November. Stay tuned! If you're in the United States, Happy Halloween and don't forget to vote!

Great site! Can I input addresses from a csv file or my existing email client?

[David Geller]

Seth - you can import from the "Friends" interface. There's a button in the lower left-hand corner. We use Plaxo services to help pull your contact info from many of the popular email platforms. You can also paste in comma (or semicolon or tabs or newlines) separated emails directly (skipping the first step). If you want to include first and/or last names, use the format:

   "first last" <mailbox@someisp.com>

Hi Folks,
I'm using am i mac with a built in camera and an external Blue Snowball Mic for audio. My Mac see the the mike, Eye jot's setup assistant and adobe flash player sees the mic but it's not registering any audio. Anyone have any thoughts?

[Seth Resler]

Great, thanks! I'll try it and let you know how it goes!

[David Geller]

Bob - I don't have experience with the Blue Snowball Mic directly, but if it's a valid audio source then Eyejot should have no trouble using it. Be sure there's no other application using it when you're trying to connect it with Eyejot. Drop a note or Eyejot to our support group via http://eyejot.com/contact.html and we'll work with you to help resolve this.
