Abstract
A multi-mail system and method is disclosed in which a sender may convey and a recipient can realize emotional aspects associated with substantive content of a multi-mail message by receiving a message that is more than textual in nature. Voice recognition technology and programmatic relation of sound and graphics may be used to produce a talking image. In one embodiment, the image may include the user's own visual and/or audio likeness. In an alternate embodiment, the image may comprise any available visual and/or audio display selected by the user. The multi-mail message may be inputted by a user in a text format and transposed into a format including the selected image and/or voice. In an alternate embodiment, a spoken message may be converted into a format including the selected image and/or voice. The formatted messages are then stored and/or transmitted via an email system or some other electronic network.
