DriveSafe.ly Pro is a smart phone program that reads email and sms text messages aloud so the user can concentrate on the road. It helps dramatically eliminate the temptation to drive distracted and with the Pro version you can respond back via voice commands. The program lets you send text messages and emails back by voice so that you don't have to look down to read and respond to messages.
You can command the program to speak in different voices (male and female) in different languages such as Spanish, Portuguese, Danish, French, English, and Italian plus many more. The text-to-speech software is enabled by one of the leading manufacturers iSpeech.org. You can customize auto-response and timeout duration as well as the length of messages read out loud and up to unlimited words. The program plays messages on demand and can be easily toggled on and off without ruining the performance of your phone. The program evens reads shorthand (lol, brb etc).
Although the program does not read or respond to other applications such as Facebook, Twitter, Calendar etc. if you receive updates from these social media outlets via text message, the program will read them. You can purchase the program for $19.99 regularly and from now until December 31st, 2011 blackberry users can select this program as a free gift. There is a discount and free version for most smart phones similar to that as well. There are also discounts for enterprises, families and other annual and monthly users.
(Alcatel-Lucent 2007) Internally, enterprises globally will increasingly make 2.0 ‘tools’ part of their routine. Collaboration productivity tools, unified communications, virtual worlds and Web services are among the tools likely to be adopted. Their adoption will, in turn, drive the growth of a social networking enterprise software industry. With the increase in web. 2.0 and now 3.0 tools with web capabilities and collaboration tools, the world of information changes dramatically with DriveSafe.ly Pro being a perfect example. More tools and applications are being created to infuse and bring together the most used and visited sites and web content to make things easier to share and view individually and throughout communities.
Phone-based voice communication is changing and being intertwined with face-to-face capabilities as with the text-to-speech capability. With the new changes being made in the world of communications and web functions, smart phone and web based activities are even that more combined and brought together. The growth in fixed and mobile broadband has created a richer multimedia communication environment. This has shifted the emphasis from personal communication and voice transmitted communication to a multimedia and multi-content way of communicating (Alcatel-Lucent 2007).
