TalkShoe is a service that enables anyone to easily create, join, or listen to Live Interactive Discussions, Conversations, Podcasts and Audio blogs. These hosted Community Calls can be discussions, conversations, talk shows and podcasts. Recorded Community Calls can be listened to, downloaded, or subscribed to. And if your Community Call becomes popular, you can make money too.

Creating a user account is a simple process. There are numerous links and buttons on the TalkShoe website which say ‘Sign Up’. Users will be asked for their email address, a user name, password, and phone number (or alternate 10-digit PIN).

Your phone number serves as your 10-digit PIN when you dial into a Community Call. We believe that your phone number is easy to remember. In addition, in the future, using Caller ID, we will be able to recognize your phone number so you won’t have to enter your PIN at all. If you wish, you can choose an alternate 10-digit PIN.

The host chooses the topic, creates the Community Call, schedules episode(s), and invites guests. Community Calls can be public, so that anyone on the website can join, or unlisted, so that only invited friends, family, or associates can participate.

Community Calls have names, descriptions, starting times, durations, etc. Once the Community Call has begun, the host has control over the Community Call and can use features such as See-Who’s-Talking, mute and unmute phone or chat, manage Requests to talk, etc. The host can also serve as the moderator or facilitator of the conversation.
