Video Email is the New Trend Now

In this technologically-advanced age, sending and receiving emails have been some of our most efficient and effective ways of communicating, But instead of sending plain text messages, what if you could send video email, a mail that your receiver can view easily. One of the great features of such video emails are that it can be shared with anyone on the internet in a private and secure manner, unlike YouTube or other video website service that share videos to the public, and better than text or instant messaging because it helps you to share information with a personal touch.

Company that offers easy to use video email service at no cost is mailVU. I found that their service is great for families who wish to keep in touch while the kids living in other cities, grandparents seeing their grandchildren, military members who want to stay in touch with their relatives, family and friends back home and even business people who want to send personalized video messages to their clients and/or business associates. I was able to try sending private video emails to a friend in three simple steps using the mailVU service.

The service is free to use and there is no account required. However, to use it, you will need a computer with a modern browser, adobe flash, a web cam and a microphone. Since there is no software to install, you do not need to worry about viruses and other technical hassles associated with installing new software. The free video email plays on your iPhone and most smart phones on the market such as Blackberry, iPad and Android phones. My friend told me that the video works well on her iPhone 3G S. The webcam records up to 5 minutes and it can be retracted at will. The video stored up to 365 days and you can specify self-destruct time period. To sum it up, the superb features of this video email service are: it plays on most smart phones, webcam records up to 5 mins, self-destruct after # of views, retract video at will, send and read notifications, video stored up to 365 days, no account or downloads.

Visitors can follow step-by-step instructions available and start trying the video mail service themselves. And since it is an email service, you and your email receiver do not have to go online both like when you are using messaging service such as Skype. However, you need to make sure that your webcam is working and you must know how to use it to record for your video email. There is no software to download and no account is needed to be set up. Just connect to your camera, record your video, and send the video to anyone you wish to send. If privacy is your concern, easily select the self-destruct option available. Their simple to use feature make sending video email easy even for first timers. And since it is free, you may want to give it a try.
