Odigo to Spice Things Up

Odigo, long known for its battles with AOL to provide its userbase with interoperability, has taken the idea of expressions over IM one step further. Acquiring software from Tech Image dubbed Feelingz, users may soon see animated messages floating around in Odigo IM windows. AOL was one of the first to encorporate graphics into IM'ing, with its graphical smiley faces. Odigo aims to blow by that static with Feeligs, which "captures and recreates real facial movements for its 3D animated characters." For more information check out techimage.com.
