Emailing photos, videos, voice from the phone
RockeTalk: Ease of emailing photos, voice, videos from your phone

The one most compelling reason to Download
Must tell you- I take lots photos, videos on my phone and email to my friends and family all over the world. I was flipping through the pagers of Real Simple (teaches people how to simplify their life by making even complicated stuff ‘Real Simple’) when I came across this bit on How to E-mail photos.
First- who carries a camera with them all the time? Isn’t the always-with-you-camera your mobile phone? So now let us go on.
After using RockeTalk for the last three years (see note at the end), it never occured to me that people might still be doing it the ‘old fashioned’ way that involved:
- Downloading a compatible app (Picasa etc) to my PC (laptop)
- Going through the pain of cable (that comes with the mobile phone in the box),
- Then downloading a compatible program to make the cable work or
- Even Bluetooth never crossed my mind (yes not all phones and laptops are Bluetooth capable)
- Involving a computer for just emailing photos, short videos, audio (But why?)
The Real simple way:

The RockeTalk way:
From the compose screen, you can attach photos, videos selected from your mobile phone’s gallery or you can click to open the camera to click some there and then!
Add an audio (in your voice or just the about anything) to tell them more about what it is about.
Click on the Add recipients to go to your phone-book contacts. (or hand enter email addresses though I recommend you add the email addresses to your phone contact if you are going to email often.)
Select or enter as many email contacts as you want to.
Click ‘Send’ and you are done!
Right there. right then, they are already on their way to your loved ones (People use it for work too
I hear)
Never had to go anywhere near the person or the computer to send it to them.
Keep friends and family updated constantly.
Never have to hear ‘But you never tell us what you are doing’.
Now you can do it in pictures, video, voice and be done. (Did I mention, you can do all this without actually talking on the phone? LOL. Yep another advantage of email.)

RockeTalk: The evolution revolution
Dear RockeTalkers,
You asked for changes we made them.
And we made changes without your asking for them.
We hope you like the way RockeTalk has changed and evolved right before your eyes.

As you remember and keep talking about the colors, the screens and features of the past versions, we thought we would go back into our files and post some of the old screens (and new ones) to remind you of the good times we’ve all had, and continue to have, through the stages.
With encouragement from you, RockeTalk is now available for download on over 340 mobile phone models. If you have a model that we have not yest covered, please send your request to support@rocketalk.com
At times we have to let go of some features but we keep listening and try to make sure that we react quickly and meet any popular requests or high priority usability issues pointed out by you. And if necessary, add some of the features back. If there is something that you absolutely must have on RockeTalk, please write to feedback@rocketalk.com or ping me (amita) when I am online.
(No, I am not a bot. I need to eat, sleep, and attend to nature’s calls- just like you. An ocassional shower or outing doesn’t hurt either
)
Thanks for all your wonderful feedback. RockeTalk would not be where it is today without your active participation.
Hope to catch you for a session of Antaakshri in Bollywood Hungaama or a impromptu Mushaira in Mehfil. Or in Flirts. Or Babel. Or …. I’m sure you’ll catch me ….
Keep those jokes and videos coming. (Yep. Heard you. We are increasing the size for uploading videos
)
As always, we give you the application. You make it fun.
Love to you all.
Amita
(On behalf of the RockeTalk team)
