So, tell me what you think about this website: http://beta.iminent.com/ ?

It's about an Add-on for Windows Live Messenger which makes possible the play of videos directly in IM windows, instantly, fast, free.
We're constantly updating it but we could also use some pieces of advice on ergonomy and on what catches your eye the first time you see it.

Thanks in advance!

Hi,

I'm Stéphane from IMinent french team and I allow myself to speak about the announcement of our new operating platform dedicated to different messengers (MSN and WLM, soon on Yahoo Messenger) which launches in public beta.



According to the beta public, we’ve spent our time to improve drastically the stability and the ergonomic
- Drag&drop from IMinent to MSN/WLM.
- Appearance of the video winks is speeder than ever due to Jabber system. Now the sent/received video is as fast as for winks or emoticons.
- We develop a shortcut [windows+i] to maximize/minimize the IMinent window.

- We also improve the video winks access content on our http://iminent.com.

More information on our http://iminent.wordpress.com with a video to better understand !

From here about fifteen days, a new function of catching and editing videos will be available on the tool starting from the webcam.

I let you have a look, feel free to speak about it !!

friendly,
stéphane

Hey everybody,

Here’s what’s new in version 1.1.720.0, launched this week:


- Invite your buddies feature (see blog for more details);
- A faster, better flash player which optimizes the EMOvid's view;
- Windows + i minimizes the Add-on to systray;

Thanks to this version, you can now send your buddies a personalized invitation!
Now your buddies can directly download IMinent and see EMOvids playing instantly. How is it possible? Here is where the Invite button is located:



The icon “invite your buddies” lets you access to a pop up window: You will be informed about how to invite your buddies.The pop up window gives you the choice between sending to all, sending to some of your buddies, or it gives you the possibility of sending an invitation later.



In the case you choose to invite some of your best buddies, a new window opens to select them. Note that all your buddies which have an IM icon on the front are already IMinentized! After validation you can write your personalized message:



Then, your friends will receive an invitation by email.

According to this version some improvements have been done regarding the flash player. We saw that some problems appeared when you sent an EMOvid (the video winks seem cut). So developers worked on a faster, better, stronger flash player!! In one word: an intelligent flash player which optimizes the video winks plays. Regarding the ergonomics, we added a flash banner for slower computers to ensure users that the EMOvid is loading.



With the invite your buddies feature we are very close to the instant access for wonderful exchange video winks with friends without losing time!


Hoping you like it,

The IMinent Team

is this a new messenger? or just plug-on with others messenger? if so, can it be use for ym?

Hi there, kodin,

This is an Add-on for MSN/Windows Live Messenger which enlarges the use of the plain emoticons, allowing users to send their own expressive videos as such. It does not work with Yahoo! for the current moment, but we are working on a version for it as we speak.

Hello everybody,

Here is what we did for you this week :

- Webcam recording feature directly from IMinent add-on through the webcam icon. (See: help section on the portal http://www.iminent.com/Help.aspx for more details).
