Shazzle Beta Newsletter
Shazzle's FIRST EVER Newsletter
10/24/07 - Dear friends of Shazzle,
Good timing. You picked the perfect point in the life-of-Shazzle to be on the receiving end of a Shazzle Newsletter. As we speak, Shazzle LLC's corporate headquarters are buzzing with activity. While the marketing and sales teams are busy fielding a barrage of proposed B2B Shazzle implementations, wind of our long-awaited Beta release is whipping through various business and technology communities. Tossing aside any further varieties of “ado” we might have had in mind: Shazzle announces the closed Beta launch of the company's Shazzle App.
Shazzle will be unveiling the revolutionary piece of freeware for which the company is named at Bentley College, starting on October 29th, 2007. We're excited to be unleashing Shazzle's massive sharing and communicative potential within one of the nation's leading business and technology institutions. Shazzle is confident that as one of the northeast's bastions of intellectual advancement and innovation, the Bentley student body will be particularly receptive to the remote PC file sharing capabilities, live communication, web browser functionality, and social networking advantages offered by Shazzle's free communities. Take a look at the list of features below to get a fuller picture of what the Beta version of Shazzle will be offering users.
Shazzle Beta Feature List:
Full-featured Shazzle Communities
Shazzle offers users easy-to-implement tools and control of their own electronic spaces. Users can create communities for public consumption or wall off their e-creations to anyone who isn't in possession of a password or an invitation. Each Shazzle community comes complete with the carefully selected, intricately intertwined array of Shazzle features.
Social Networking
Shazzlers are prompted to create a personal profile upon downloading the application. Shazzle's social networking is unique because Shazzle Networking ensures that every personal profile is enveloped by the collection of Shazzle functions that make the program such an invaluable internet tool.
Synchronized P2P File Sharing
Shazzle's creative Jxta-based take on the sharing of files enables users to get at their content from anywhere. Shazzle community downloading and uploading is also rife with useful new wrinkles. Shazzle offers a (totally free) “subscribe to a community” function that allows every member of a community who chose the subscription route to have all the files in that community automatically saved to their hard drives.
Live Communication
Shazzle communities are wired for e-sound. Engage in community-wide live chat or browse the member list within a Shazzle community to see who's available to dialog in real time with Shazzle instant messaging. And, if you want to peruse community content without being hassled, turn on Shazzle's stealth mode to appear off-line while you're enjoying the various other exciting attributes you'll find within Shazzle communities.
Enhanced Web Browsing
The Shazzle program offers users web browser functionality. The top right hand portion of the Shazzle screen is dedicated to a “viewer” which allows users to access the World Wide Web. Shazzle, though, also offers users the product's robust suite of additional tools. Every web browser is surrounded by the Shazzle world, Shazzle file sharing, live chat and instant messaging to create the most dynamic web browsing experience available.
And More...
