I’ve received several e-mail messages from the makers of ooVoo, which is apparently what all the kewl kids will be using for IM and video chat. The final release launches this week and I’d love to give it a try. Except I don’t own a webcam. I guess I always assumed that nobody out there would want to look at my ugly mug when conversing with me. But perhaps I should reconsider.
One thing about ooVoo’s marketing efforts made me smile. A cute British woman from ooVoo named Molly sent me a video message to inform me of the software’s official release. In the course of doing so, she referred to me as a “leading blogger”. Really? 60 hits per day makes me a leading blogger? I suspect you’re making a blatant appeal to my ego, Molly. But, please, do go on.
