Telesocial Releases Flash SDK for Telesocial API January 10, 2012

With the Telesocial API, flash developers can now integrate mobile voice features into games and applications for free.

San Francisco, CA (January 10, 2012)
Telesocial, the San Francisco-based cloud telephony service platform, today has announced the release of their Flash SDK, a software toolkit for application development that supports Adobe’s Flash environment and ActionScript 3. Any Flash application can now add mobile voice services for free with Telesocial’s easy-to-use API. The API allows social voice features to be integrated in games and apps giving the end user an anonymous and safe way to communicate on their favorite platform while phone numbers are secure and never shared.

“Developers have wanted the ability to easily add rich communications features to their applications at massive scale without exposing users’ phone numbers,” said Eric Stone, CTO of Telesocial. “With the Adobe Flash SDK with AS3, millions of existing Flash applications everywhere can add safe social calling, group calling, TalkSpaces™, virtual conferences, in-app voice mail and messaging, media recording and distribution and other features using our free and scalable API.”

Watch What The Kids Are Doing January 14, 2012

Earlier this week, I went to a school meeting with parents in my daughter’s 5th grade class. As it turns out, some of the parents were giddy talking about how their kids are coming home from school and joining Google Hangout sessions with their school friends. There are about 14 kids from my daughter’s class that do this on a regular basis (4 boys, 10 girls…4 very smart boys!). What is fascinating is that the kids will leave their Google Hangout sessions open while they read, do homework, chat, or go about their nightly routine. As they work, the conversations continue in the background and kids seamlessly move in and out of the Hangout sessions. The parents occasionally pop into the room and the video chat session to let all know that there is supervision.

Imagine that! Kids today are ushering in yet another paradigm for using social networks and technology. While this behavior is adopted by the younger generation, we know that eventually it will work its way into everyone’s lives such that we will all have ongoing video sessions on our screens while we go about our daily lives.
