Pssst … There’s A New Feature in Mingleverse: You Can Now Whisper (Yes, Whisper)

We’ve just added a brand new feature for our minglers. In addition to the text chat whisper mode, you can now whisper “talk” to any participant in a mingle as well – without interrupting a presentation or general conversation. Just like you can quietly talk to people in a physical meeting, the new feature enables you to whisper to any other person in a mingle.

To whisper, simply choose the “Online” tab and select the “Actions” menu next to the person you want to whisper to. Click the whisper button and keep it pressed when you are whispering. You will hear a subtle background sound to let you know that you are in whisper mode. Release the button when you are done. You don’t have to keep the button pressed when someone else is whispering to you.

Your meeting will continue in the background and you will hear what is being discussed. We are excited about this new feature as we believe it is one more component that builds on the realism of Mingleverse online meetings. We want you to feel like if you were there.

Give this new feature a spin. We’d love to hear from you what you think!
