File Osculator Description

New communication methods have developed and improved thanks to the Internet. Various instant messaging applications managed to make a name for themselves throughout the years. These are not only used to get in touch with friends and relatives, but greatly enhance work environments by providing a quick way to share files and communicate with team members. In this regard, File Osculator is a small, easy to use and efficient file sharing and messaging application.Can be used on the goThe application manages to make a proper impression right from the start, thanks to clever implementation of features that enables you to take it anywhere you go, since it doesn't require an installation. This also means registries are kept intact, but you still need to make sure the machine you're using it on is equipped with Java Runtime Environment, since the application is built on this engine. Suitable for LAN environmentsBefore rushing to grab the application, note that it is dedicated towards usage in a local area network. On the other hand, you can simulate such environments with applications like Hamachi for more flexibility. This comes in handy, especially because the application can be used to share files and connection is done through IP. Clean and intuitive designRight from the start, the application Asks for a username by which you are identified in the user list. The main window isn't much to look at, but it's pretty clean and intuitive, with a tab-based design that provides quick access to the list of users, files up for sharing and a few preferences you can manage. Easily chat and share filesSadly, you can only get in touch with one individual at a time, and would have been useful to start conferences, especially because it comes in handy for office and LAN environments. However, the application requires little effort on your behalf, with a text field that lets you write your message, select the user and hit the “Send” button. Your interlocutor is instantly prompted by a window that displays the message, as well as the sender. File sharing is done in a similar manner, but the difference is you need to browse for them with the help of a dedicated window. There's also a common tab where all shared files are displayed so anyone can grab them. In conclusionTaking everything into consideration, we can say that File Osculator might not be the most advanced and powerful instant messaging application, but is sure worth at least a try. It perfectly blends with LAN environments, providing an incredibly easy communication and file sharing method. Although you can only chat with one individual at a time, the clever design, ease of use and overall practicality, make it live up to expectations.
