1. Zoho Chat
   
   
   
   Zoho Chat is a web-based service that is unlike a conventional chat service because it does not require the presence of all participants at the same time. Members can create and schedule a conversation or meeting on the Zoho Chat service. An email invitation is then sent to participants (who need not be registered members of Zoho Chat) with the topic title and time of meeting. These participants can join the meeting or conversation by clicking the link on their email message. Users can archive discussions and share them with friends or colleagues that could not participate in the conversation at the designated time. Free.

PiXPO provides also privacy settings for all of your images allowing you to decide who gets to access what. To use it you just create a media album in PiXPO and add video, audio, and picture files to be shared with others. You then select the email addresses of the people you want to share your media with, add a personal message, and send invitations out. The people in your email list get a link to your album and, once thet have downloaded and installed PiXPO, they can start viewing your image albums.
