Loudtalks 0.9.0.37  beta

Publisher's Description:

Loudtalks brings voice back to the Internet communications. It's a little application, which allows you to talk to your friends or colleagues instantly with a single touch of a button. Think walkie talkie. It's faster than text chat and more convenient than calls. It supports one to one and one to many communication. Incoming messages could be re-played. The application is fast and lightweight and doesn't require any configuration.

Latest Changes:

  • If you are not talking to anyone and receive an incoming message, the contact, who sent it, is selected automatically
  • There is an option to turn Away status automatically after given period of inactivity or when the workstation is locked
  • Bug fix: Random crash, when starting a new message

Does what it says, light cpu and nice design.
Like the option that you can ad a sound if somebody starts to speak to you the first time and the echofunction and shortcut speakbutton is very handy!

Missing a fews things...
*I had to put a shortcut myself in my startupfolder for starting up with windows
*You have to watch just above the systray if you can speak and not talking the same time otherwise you both missed the boat and none of you heard something.

Like to see an option that you can talk to all your acounts at once, now you have to select an account and some skins added would be great

Like to test it with my? You know my name allready I guess...

Initially when I downloaded Loudtalks, it crashed in Vista upon use. I issued a bug report (through the program) and the creator fixed it within 24 hours! It now works PERFECTLY and my parents love to use it.

great. does exactly what it advertises, does it well, and uses minimal resources to do it.

P.S. the open-source IM client, Pidgin, is supposed to add Skype support sometime in the future. i think it would be great to have loudtalks support instead.

Now this is neat! Push to talk for the PC.

I downloaded this earlier today, then convinced another coupe of friends to do so too.

First impression? Very pleased.

Not only is it a ridiculously small, but it works. And works well.

The audio quality is pretty good and I particularly liked the 'channel' function - whereby groups of people can be lumped in together for simultaneous broadcast. Thats a simple, but very effective feature.

I just hope it manages to avoid becoming bloatware as the most impressive thing for me overall was the small file size.

Why can't everything be as simple as this?

Well worth a 5/5.

Hi guys, I'm one of those, working on this product. Hope you don't mind I rated it 5 :) I do use it all the time and like it a lot (even though our tasks list stretches right to the moon -- no worries, we'll keep it simple and light no matter what).

As another user mentioned the latest version has an issue with contacts statuses being unstable. The fix is on its way, so don't lose faith!

Thanks for your support! We do plan a Linux and Mac OS X versions but ETA is uncertain yet.
