A closer look at PowWow

You can automatically connect with other PowWow, AOL Instant Messenger, or Microsoft Messenger users by entering their e-mail address. A "white pages" of other PowWow users is available at Tribal Voice's home page. You can set your computer up as a conference server and up to fifty people can connect with you. You can also host private chat rooms. You may set yourself up as a temporary conference, or a permanent conference. You may choose to be the conference moderator or you can create a full-time non-moderated conference. PowWow runs in personal communicator and conference modes at the same time. If you are hosting a conference or connected to one, you can still talk with other people running PowWow and use all the personal communicator functions.

If you have a TCP/IP-based network you can set up your own PowWow Server to run PowWow inside of your LAN or WAN.

PowWow also boasts a text-to-speech feature, on-line games, bulletin-board messaging, Web browsing, Web searching, and an e-mail answering machine option.
