next is the world’s first Universal Instant Media Messenger: a messenger that makes sharing photos and files and streaming music with friends as easy as sending a message. Start by importing your accounts from MSN, Yahoo, AIM, ICQ, Google Talk, IRC and Jabber (multiple accounts per network supported).your Hotmail, Yahoo Mail, GMail, AIM Mail, and .mac address books. Once your buddy list is complete, you can send and receive messages and files like you’re used to. But messages and files are just the beginning. By simply dragging and dropping as many files or folders of your music or photos into an open conversation window you can instantly stream that content with your friends. They will automatically receive a web link in a message that will take them to a webpage where they can listen to you music and playlists, or run a slideshow and download your photos! And you didn’t have to do anything more than drag a folder into a window and click “share”. Qnext has many features that you won’t find anywhere else, for example: multi-network group chat. That’s right, a Qnext user can host a chat with friends from multiple different networks, and they can even talk to each other! You, your MSN buddy, and your AIM friend can all share a single conversation. Try dropping some music or photos into the chat, everyone will get the link! Convince a couple friends to use Qnext as well and you’ll be amazed at what Qnext users can do with each other: 4-way video chat, 8-way audio chat, multiplayer games, and secure file transfers of any size! Qnext also has a built-in Remote PC Access and Application Sharing tool called Qnext MyPC: Access your desktop from anywhere in the world as if you were sitting right in front of your computer.
