Social Site qmpeople.com Launches Videochat Feature Across Multiple
Languages
URL: http://www.qmpeople.com
qmpeople.com, a worldwide social network, announced the improvement of
its textual chat with the introduction of videochat functionalities.
Videochat will allow videocommunications among users from all
localized versions of the network, including japanese, chinese and
korean.
Launched eight years ago, qmpeople.com is continuously adding new
services to improve user experience and popularity.
According to qmpeople Director Marina Rina Cianfarani, "no other site
can offer to their users a plethora of services like qmpeople does.
Chat, videochat, groups of interests, video/link sharing,
microblogging, free SMS without sharing cellphone numbers, offline
messaging, native integration with Facebook, Twitter and YouTube are
only a part of our capabilities.
"Our strategy is focused on user experience improvement, so we are
doing a lot of market research to understand which services are most
appreciated by our users.
Another key is the growth of audience so all our services are natively
developed to be used by people of different languges and cultures.
When talking about qmpeople, definitions can be misleading: we are not
a dating site but we are not only a social network. Our slogan is “a
world of friends” so qmpeople can be considered a social network
oriented to meet new friends.
At the first phase of the launch qmpeople videochat will allow one-to-
one communications only. One of the most interesting aspects of the
new application is the ability to invite a person for videochatting
even if he is not currently chatting but surfing the site. This will
make videochatting much easier to participate in than with other
popuplar plaftorms.
Particular attention has been given to privacy. A web cam will not be
publicly shown and people can block or ignore unwanted calls without
revealing their intentions to their interlocutors. A zero tolerance
policy against inappropriate usage is in place.
