Talking Avatars!
GotVoice users should notice something new in your account center today. We’re very excited about adding to your Voicemail experience, as our lip-synched Avatars read your voicemail to you. Upload the funniest Talking Avatars to YouTube, FaceBook, MySpace, or forward them to friends by email. We like to call it “Putting the Character Back Into Voicemail.”
- Lip-Synched Avatars read back your voicemail
- 50+ Avatars to assign to each caller
- Choose from popular political figures or just plain goofy characters.
To activate your avatars, simply go into the GotVoice Message Center and play one of your messages. Look for the words “Enable Avatars” in the middle of the Message Center and choose the one you like best from the many options - bears, monsters, politicians, robots and more. You can change anytime.
And thanks to our friends at Voki for partnering up with us on this. The avatars include lip-syncing technology powered by the Voki speaking avatar platform, which was developed by Oddcast, Inc., the leader in speaking avatar technology.
Have fun with them and make sure to tell us what you think.
