Digital Memo - the messaging tool for managers who want to delegate, without talkback
afurness |
02 24th, 2009 Montreal - 9th July 2008 Popuload Software announced today the release of its new messaging product, Digital Memo. Designed for managers, CEO’s or anyone communicating to a team of staff, Digital Memo distributes messages to employees without the dialogue e-mail or other messaging systems create. “There are times when a message is better suited to be communicated one-way to the employee, rather than the current office standards such as email and other two-way communication methods that allow for an open dialogue,” says Popuload Software founder Alex Furness. Digital Memo does just that, sending the message directly to the employees’ desktops, without the option to talkback. Here’s how it works: Digital Memo integrates the RSS feed distributed with your blog, notifying anyone who has the Digital Memo Reader installed of each new blog post. This allows for those in management to use their blog as a tool to send memos digitally. Read the rest of this entry »
