SplitEmail - EMail 2.0 - Personalize Your Email
 | SplitEmail is Email 2.0. Its a very simple concept and the actual power of this system is not realized until you use it. When I first downloaded the email tool I was unsure of how it would be received and adopted by the recipients of my first attempt. My recipients first experience was met with curiosity, taking no time to read and understand what was before them. They immediately could read the email and the SplitEmail features from any email client as there is no barrier for entry.. Slowly, I started to receive "Personalized Email" via SplitEmail. Now when I author an email for my team we communicate with SplitEmail features, personalizing our points. The power of splitting the email up per individual by highlighting specific text, adding confidential notes and include attachments for specific recipients is outstanding. Email 2.0, SplitEmail personalizes your context for your recipient. SplitEmail features are lacking from traditional email systems and this sets a new mark. |
First things first, SplitEmail works in Outlook, Gmail, Yahoo and AOL. The web technology is currently implemented in Internet Explorer 6.0/7.X. Future versions will include Firebird, Safari and Thunderbird which of course appears to transcend the Mac OS X and Linux barrier.
Using SplitEmail for teams allows senders to highlight importance for recipients, allow confidential context to a recipient of a group, and finally sending emails that hold context for the author.
SplitEmail's capability to attach emails to specific recipients in a group is very useful. Attachments is sent to the specified recipients of an email while the other recipients are of the email do not receive the attachment. This by far is the greatest feature available for emailing attachments.
The end goal is that the email is sent, the context is delivered and the attachment is only sent to the individuals that need it. This is brilliant and saves teams from sending the same "Help Doc" attachment to a new customer and CCing the team to the email, only.
The following Email is a great way to explain the power of the features:
Recipient1's Received Email |
| from "Sender@gmail.com" To Reciepient1@gmail.com Date Jun 17, 2008 1:04 PM Subject Splite Email Mailed-by gmail.com To: <Recipeint1@gmail.com>, <Reciepient2@gmail.com> This email was written in GMail's web-interface. However, SplitEmail was installed for Internet Explorer 6.0. The two recipients Recipient1 and Recipient2 are addressed in the To: field. The following highlighting {can be seen by all recipients.} Highlighting is important in the context of the message and is used today in most common email clients. However, the difference is you can identify text to be highlighted by a selected recipient. In this case RECIPIENT1 will see {this sentence highlighted as the email author thought it more pertinent to RECIPIENT1} . The resulting email will highlight the text for Recipient1 "this sentence highlighted as the email author thought it more pertinent to RECIPIENT1". Recipeint2 will see the sentence with out the highlighting. "this sentence highlighted as the email author thought it more pertinent to RECIPIENT1". This is an excellent feature that allows a team to coordinated, contextual and definable email allowing the author to make his points and highlight per individual, group individuals or all recipients, clarity in context of importance. The second feature, confidentiality, works the same. The author wants to tell Recipient1 something in the context of the email and keep it from Recipient2. Team our meeting is tomorrow, at 9am in the Board Room please come to discuss the current Acme account. Confidential : {Recipient1 we are acknowledging Recipient1's great success with the Acme account, can you please come to the board room 10 minutes early to setup. Thank you, Sender} Thank you, Sender |
