Well, today, I want to introduce you to a new e-mail service you might like. It&#39;s called <strong>BigString<\/strong>, but before I go into any detail about it, I have to ask you a couple questions. Have you ever wanted to erase an e-mail that was already sent? Or, how about ensuring a private e-mail wasn&#39;t forwarded, saved or printed? Would you like to record a video right in an e-mail? Luckily, all of those things are just a few of the features BigString boasts. So, let&rsquo;s check it out!<\/font><\/p>\n<p align=\"justify\"><font>To get started with BigString, you first need to create an account. Here&#39;s how:<\/font><\/p>\n<p align=\"justify\"><font>1.) Head on over to <a href=\"http:\/\/www.bigstring.com\/\" title=\"http:\/\/www.bigstring.com\/\">http:\/\/www.bigstring.com\/<\/a> and click on the <strong>Sign Up<\/strong> link.<\/font><\/p>\n<p align=\"justify\"><font><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"http:\/\/imgsrv.worldstart.com\/ct-images\/bigs1.jpg\" border=\"1\" width=\"425\" height=\"295\" \/><\/p>\n<p> 2.) Now, you&rsquo;ll need to set up a username. Type in your choice and click on <strong>Check Username<\/strong>. BigString is relatively new, so there are plenty of choices for usernames. If your choice is available, click <strong>Continue<\/strong>.<\/font><\/p>\n<p align=\"justify\"><font><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"http:\/\/imgsrv.worldstart.com\/ct-images\/bigs2.jpg\" border=\"1\" width=\"415\" height=\"199\" \/><\/p>\n<p> 3.) You&rsquo;ll then have to fill out the usual information: your name, password, set up a security question, etc. Once you&#39;re finished, click <strong>Continue<\/strong>.<\/font><\/p>\n<p align=\"justify\"><font>4.) Next, click on <strong>Take Me to My Inbox <\/strong>and you&#39;ll see this screen:<\/font><\/p>\n<p align=\"justify\"><font><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"http:\/\/imgsrv.worldstart.com\/ct-images\/bigs3.jpg\" border=\"1\" width=\"450\" height=\"257\" \/><\/p>\n<p> 5.) To begin typing an e-mail, click on <strong>Compose<\/strong>.<\/font><\/p>\n<p align=\"justify\"><font><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"http:\/\/imgsrv.worldstart.com\/ct-images\/bigs4.jpg\" border=\"1\" width=\"210\" height=\"59\" \/><\/p>\n<p> Now, here&rsquo;s where the magic begins! You can select from all different types of e-mails. Let&rsquo;s check them out!<\/font><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>\n<div align=\"justify\">\n<div align=\"left\"><font><strong>Recallable Messages<\/strong> &ndash; These are messages that expire after a certain number of views, an exact time or a time after it was opened. They can also be edited. For example, if the wrong information was sent to the wrong person.<\/p>\n<p> <\/font><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<div align=\"justify\">\n<div align=\"left\"><font><strong>Quick Destruct <\/strong>&ndash; Messages that destruct after either 15 to 30 seconds or one to two minutes after being opened.<\/p>\n<p> <\/font><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<div align=\"justify\">\n<div align=\"left\"><font><strong>Regular with Tracking<\/strong> &ndash; These are messages that can be tracked by how many views they&#39;ve had.<\/p>\n<p> <\/font><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<div align=\"justify\">\n<div align=\"left\"><font><strong>Video Mail<\/strong> &#8211; This one allows you to record a video using a Webcam. The video can be set to self-destruct after a certain number of views.<\/p>\n<p> <\/font><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<div align=\"justify\">\n<div align=\"left\"><font><strong>Secure Mail<\/strong> &ndash; This uses encryption to keep your e-mails private.<\/p>\n<p> <\/font><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<div align=\"justify\">\n<div align=\"left\"><font><strong>Regular<\/strong> &ndash; Of course, you have the option of sending a normal e-mail as well.<\/font><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<div align=\"justify\">\n<p><font>6.) You can experiment with sending e-mails to yourself with those different options. I&rsquo;m sure you&rsquo;ll notice that it&#39;s rich-text formatting, which is similar to MS Word. You can also embed an image if you wish. To send an e-mail, simply click on the green <strong>Send<\/strong> button.<\/font><\/p>\n<p><font><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"http:\/\/imgsrv.worldstart.com\/ct-images\/bigs5.jpg\" border=\"1\" width=\"450\" height=\"69\" \/><\/p>\n<p> Now, I&rsquo;d like to show you how to recall and self-destruct messages!<\/font><\/p>\n<p><font>7.) First, click on <img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"http:\/\/imgsrv.worldstart.com\/ct-images\/bigs6.jpg\" border=\"1\" width=\"186\" height=\"28\" \/>.<\/font><\/p>\n<p><font>8.) Here you can see that an e-mail I sent to myself hasn&rsquo;t been read yet. To self-destruct it, just click on the checkbox and then click on <strong>Self-Destruct.<\/strong><\/font><\/p>\n<p><font><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"http:\/\/imgsrv.worldstart.com\/ct-images\/bigs7.jpg\" border=\"1\" width=\"450\" height=\"43\" \/><\/p>\n<p> 9.) Now, let&rsquo;s say I wanted to edit the following message:<\/font><\/p>\n<p><font><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/imgsrv.worldstart.com\/ct-images\/bigs8.jpg\" border=\"1\" <a href=\"http:\/\/valasevich.com\/\">does female cialis work<\/a>  width=&#8221;450&#8243; height=&#8221;42&#8243; \/><\/p>\n<p> 10.) Just double click it and type in your corrections. Then click on <strong>Update<\/strong>. It&rsquo;s as easy as that!<\/font><\/p>\n<p><font><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"http:\/\/imgsrv.worldstart.com\/ct-images\/bigs9.jpg\" border=\"1\" width=\"450\" height=\"179\" \/><\/p>\n<p> 11.) As for the video e-mail, I have a Webcam and I&#39;ve recorded a short clip. When the recipient gets the video, they&#39;ll have to click on a link to be directed to a video player similar to this:<\/font><\/p>\n<p><font><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"http:\/\/imgsrv.worldstart.com\/ct-images\/bigs10.jpg\" border=\"1\" width=\"250\" height=\"231\" \/><\/font><\/p>\n<p><font>That&#39;s it.
