Jangl beams out a signal with website widgets
Its time to get your Jang widget on! Jangl lets users communicate with anyone, without revealing what your mobile number is, or exchanging that number with anyone else. We covered its launch back in August. Now they are aiming at taking the widgets by storm.This is officially the time for widgets. Little desktop bits aimed at making our beloved services more accessible. Jangl has entered the arena with a new website widget that will do just that. It comes in a few designer patterns that will suit anyone's tastes, including brushed steel, racing blue, bubble gum, graphite tattoo, and mustard bling.
