Meshly gives you a way to quickly post links to your own space and the Meshly community through your IM client. Users can vote and comment on the posts and you can place posts onto specific channels.

At first, I thought that it was another Twitter, but it’s not really about letting people know what you ate for breakfast. It’s more about sharing interesting links and then voting to get those links on the popular page. So, let’s say I find a cool article on Lifehacker, I can just send an IM to Meshly with the link and a brief description and it’s instantly shared with the Meshly community. Channels are created to help you find what you’re looking for. Here’s my screencast tour of Meshly:

  1. Hi Molly,

    Thanks for the awesome Meshly screencast. I really appreciate your feedback, and it’s very cool to see things from a member’s perspective. We’re adding your requested features to the top of our todo list.

    By the way, I’m really digging your site. What software are you using to do your screencasts? Do you have a screencast howto for screencasting? If so, I’d like to pass it on.

    Thanks!
    Jason

  2. Yeah, thanks a ton Molly. Its cool to see that folks out there understand the utility. We will definitely make the changes you’ve suggested along with other improvements over the next couple weeks.

    Thanks again, and please feel free to add suggestions to the Meshlydev channel.

    Take care,
    Dave

  3. Thanks guys. Jason, I use Camtasia Studio 4.0 from Techsmith. I don’t have a how-to screencast for screencasting but you’ve just put an idea in my head! Thanks!
