Description
Shortmail is a new kind of messaging that combines the best parts of email, text messaging, and Twitter.
Like email, Shortmail lets you communicate with anyone who has an email address — one-to-one or as a group.
Messages are limited to 500 characters, which keeps things concise, readable and conversational.
Shortmail also introduces the idea of "Public" (readabl
... Read Moree by the world) and "Open" (joinable by the world) conversations – so it's social.
And you'll automatically receive notification of new Shortmails using Apple's Push Notification service — a great way to stay on top of important communication.
In our first release for iOS, Shortmail requires a Twitter account, and turns your Twitter username into a Shortmail email address.
So, if you're "@happybird" on Twitter, you're "happybird@shortmail.com" on Shortmail. And that's a public email address you can share with the rest of the world. Anyone can easily find you on Shortmail and contact you (unlike DM's, which require the user to be following you).
Shortmail for iOS follows the debut of Shortmail.com which received international attention for its bold moves to reinvent email. Following many suggestions from the Email Charter (http://emailcharter.org), Shortmail attempts to solve the problem of information overload by putting a small cost – that of conciseness and clarity – onto the sender.
Shortmail for iOS is a great companion to Shortmail.com, but can also be used alone. It integrates seamlessly into iOS 5 and instantly converts your iOS Twitter accounts into Shortmail accounts with no signup, no passwords, and no hassle!
So join the Shortmail revolution – give it a try for 30 days and see how much better your email life becomes!
