A computer-implemented method for communicating with a mixed media communication, said method comprising:
- capturing an image via an image capturing device associated with a device;
- capturing an audio message related to said image via a microphone associated with said device;
- and
- sending a communication from said device to a second device, wherein said communication comprises said image and said audio message, such that said second device will automatically display said image and play said audio message upon accessing said communication.
A device for communicating using a mixed media communication, said device comprising:
- an image capturing device for capturing an image;
- a microphone for capturing an audio message related to said image;
- a mixed media communication creator for creating and sending a communication from said device to a second device, wherein said communication comprises said image and said audio message, such that said second device will automatically display said image and play said audio message upon accessing said communication.
A computer-implemented method for communicating with a mixed media communication, said method comprising:
- capturing an image via a first image capturing device associated with a device;
- capturing a video via a second image capturing device associated with said device, wherein said video comprises an audio portion, and wherein said audio portion relates to said image;
