JACKSONVILLE, FL--(Marketwire - October 13, 2009) - Cliqset today announced the public
availability of its real-time
community, as well as the release of its new desktop client.
Cliqset is an online community that makes it easy for people to share,
discover and discuss content with friends from around the Web. The latest
beta of Cliqset features a completely redesigned user interface and
real-time conversations and activity
streams that make it easier for users to stay engaged and follow the
discussions that they find most interesting.
Cliqset is also making available a full-featured Adobe AIR desktop client
that brings users' Cliqset conversations to their desktop to manage social
activity and conversations with an easy-to-navigate streaming UI. The
application includes all the functionality from the website version, but
delivered straight to a user's desktop. The Cliqset desktop client is
available for download now at http://www.cliqset.com.
On Cliqset, users now have options for communicating and sharing online
activities (like photos, location aware updates, bookmarks) with their
friends and online communities, while also being able to track and update
all of their third-party social networks and services from one centralized
hub. Cliqset now integrates with nearly 70 social networks and services.
"Cliqset is a completely new social experience. Our goal is to enhance
social connections that happen on the Web and to build a better way to
engage online and share your social activities in
real-time," said Darren Bounds, president and co-founder of Cliqset. "We do
this through our real-time community and applications, but, most
importantly, by embracing the open
Web community and helping to inspire creativity and innovation online."
As the nature of conversations on the Web has been dramatically changing to
mirror those in real life, Cliqset is about conversations, however they
unfold. Cliqset online and Cliqset desktop client give users the ability
to:
-- Quickly engage and discuss: Discussions and commenting are now all in
real-time -- unique from most social networks and services currently on the
Web -- giving users a better way to communicate and stay engaged in the
discussion as it unfolds.
-- Pull in content from almost 70 social networks and services: Cliqset
supports integrations with the most popular third-party services so users
can easily pull their content into Cliqset (photos, status updates, videos,
blog posts, etc.) from other social networks.
-- Share content with other social networks and services, including
Twitter, Facebook, Myspace, Identi.ca, Linkedin and FriendFeed: Users can
update their status, and share photos, bookmarks, and reviews on Cliqset
and push them out to wherever they choose. And users can now share content
that they discover on Cliqset with other social services they've enabled.
-- Discover content and people by staying on top of specific topics with
Cliqset's granular activity stream filters: Users can select which types of
updates they'd like to see in their activity stream including text, photo,
comment or blog post. Updates that include photo files or location details
now show a thumbnail so that users can easily see the content without
having to explore further.
-- Control more effectively how people can see and interact with
information that users share.
