\r\t\r\t\t\r\t\t\t\r\t\t\t\t\r\t\t\t\t\t - What is Kadoink?
\r\r\t\t\t\t\t\t\tKadoink takes your mobile phone and the web and combines them to form a new way for you to communicate and participate with your friends and communities.
\r
\r\t\t\t\t\t\tBy using the voice and texting features of your mobile phone, we enable you to instantly make group calls, record and post audio, and interact anonymously with anyone and everyone. Plus there’s nothing to download or install.
\r\t\t\t\t\t\t\t
\r\r\t\t\t\t\t - What kind of phone do I need to use Kadoink?
\r\t\t\t\t\t\t\tAny phone that can send and receive text messages and voice calls works with Kadoink. Pretty much any mobile phone out there works with Kadoink.
\r\r\t\t\t\t\t\t\t
\r\r\t\t\t\t\t - How much does it cost?
\r\t\t\t\t\t\t\tCurrently, Kadoink is free, however, depending upon your mobile provider plan, you may be charged by your carrier to send and receive text messages.
\r\t\t\t\t\t\t\t
\r\r\t\t\t\t\t - Do you charge me for group texts sent from Kadoink?
\r\t\t\t\t\t\t\tIf you send a group text to your friends via Kadoink, you will not incur text charges if you initiate these texts from the Kadoink website. If you initiate group texts from your mobile phone, you may be charged by your carrier for the single text message sent to Kadoink – however, the multiple text sent to your friends via Kadoink will be free!
\r\r\t\t\t\t\t\t\t
\r\r\t\t\t\t\t - Does Kadoink work internationally?
\r\t\t\t\t\t\t\tAt this time Kadoink’s beta is only available to users in the United States. Stay tuned.
\r\t\t\t\t\t\t\t
\r\r\t\t\t\t\t - What carriers work with Kadoink?
\r\t\t\t\t\t\t\tKadoink’s short code (33033) currently works with Sprint-Nextel, AT&T, Verizon, and Dobson. If you have another carrier you will have to use our long-code (415-341-5563). We are still in the approval process with T-Mobile and Alltel, so for those subscribers and all others there may be limited functionality available.
\r\r\t\t\t\t\t\t\t
\r\r\t\t\t\t\t - Will my name and phone number and name be shared with people I communicated via Kadoink?
\r\t\t\t\t\t\t\tSince Kadoink serves as intermediary for all calls, texts and audio sharing, Kadoink is able to keep your name and phone number private from other users. Phone numbers and names will never be shared with other users.
\r\t\t\t\t\t\t\t
\r\r\t\t\t\t\t - What does Kadoink do to protect the security of my personal information?
\r\r\t\t\t\t\t\t\tKadoink is committed to protecting your information. We use industry-standard best practices in order to prevent security breaches and protect the security of your data including the use of a 128-bit SSL certificate from VeriSign.
\r\t\t\t\t\t\t\t
\r\r\t\t\t\t\t - Will Kadoink protect my personal information and not share it with spammers and marketers?
\r\t\t\t\t\t\t\tYour privacy is very important to us. We don't distribute your contact information to marketers or spammers. For more information, please also review our Privacy Policy.
\r\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t
\r\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\r\r\t\t\t\t\t - What are the general rules of the road for using Kadoink – what can or can’t I do?
\r\t\t\t\t\t\t\tRules of the Road are pretty basic, no profanity, be a good citizen and respect others. More details can be reviewed at our Rules of the Road page.
\r\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t
\r\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\r\t\t\t\t\t - How do I report misuse or abuse?
\r\r\t\t\t\t\t\t\tWe take abuse of our service very seriously. If you suspect abuse, please contact us via the web at our Report Abuse page.
\r\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t
\r\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\r\t\t\t\t\t - Where can I review the terms of conditions of using the Kadoink service?
\r\t\t\t\t\t\t\tYou can review our Terms and Conditions. Terms and conditions can be viewed anytime from a link at the bottom of each page.\r\t\t\t\t \r\t\t | \r\t

\r\t\t\t\t\t\t\t
\r\r\t\t\t\t - What is a nickname and why is that important?
\r\t\t\t\t\t\tNicknames are important since it’s the way you will call or text your friends using Kadoink. The system stores their number so you don’t have to remember them. Thus, to initiate a group call from your phone, all you would need to do would be to text:\r\t
call bill ronna scott\r\r

\r\r\t\t\t\t - How do I respond to a text message with a play command?
\r\t\t\t\t\t\tA key feature of Kadoink is that people you can share audio files with other people. Kadoink has the ability to send text messages to your friends that when responded to, initiate a call via the mobile phones playing the requested audio. It’s kind of like turning your phone into a remote control and you get to tell it when you want to hear a file. Unlike a voice call that you might miss and might go into your voicemail, a text from Kadoink with an embedded ‘play command” allows you to play this audio file as many times as you’d like whenever you’d like.

\r\t\t\t\t\t\t\r\t\t\t\t - What is blasting and how do I do it?
\r
\r\t\t\t\t\t\tThe blast command is a way for you to easily and quickly send audio to your friends.

\r\r\t\t\t\t\t\t\r\t\t\t\t - What is the share command and does it work?
\r
\r\t\t\t\t\t\t“Sharing” an audio file with friends actually delivers a text message that instructs the recipient of the text message how to listen to the audio track you sent. At any time, they can reply back to the text message with the word play and the name of the audio Username to listen to the file. They can also forward the text message you sent (the share message) to their friends and other people that would enjoy hearing the audio track.

\r\t\t\t\t\t\t
\r\t\t\t\t\t\t
\r\r\t\t\t\t - What is iblast and how do I do it?

\r\r\t\t\t \r\t\t | \r\t
\r\r\t\r\t\t\r\t\t\t\r\t\t\t\t- What is a MegaWidget?
\r\t\t\t\t\t\tA MegaWidget is your communications widget that you can customize and put on your social site page, like MySpace. It shows your mobile username and is a place you can use to showcase audio, get voice and text messages, or display your presence.
\r\t\t\t\t\t\t
\r\t\t\t\t\t\t
\r\r\t\t\t\t - Where can I put my MegaWidget and how do I do that?
\r\t\t\t\t\t\tTo create your MegaWidget, get started by going to the My Widgets page. After you’ve made your MetaWidget, you will be asked to save it. Once saved, code will be generated that will allow you to paste your MegaWidget in other place.\r
\rYou don't have to do anything with the code -- you can use our tool that lets you put the MegaWidget in any site that we have listed - MySpace, FaceBook, Blogger, Hi5, etc. The tool is easy and fast -- BOOM! The MegaWidget is on your social network and the tool is automatic and safe to use. If you prefer, you can get the code and put it anywhere you like.\r
\rCopy the code and make sure you get it all. Then, go to the place you want to insert the code, for instance the profile section of your MySpace page. Paste the code into the edit profile section and BOOM, your MegaWidget is there.
\r\t\t\t\t\t\t
\r\t\t\t\t\tRemember, you can paste your code into a whole lot of places. Anywhere you can paste HTML code.
\r\r\t\t\t\t\t\t
\r\t\t\t\t\t\t
\r\r\t\t\t\t - What are the different ways I can configure my MegaWidget?
\r\t\t\t\t\t\tMegaWidgets are designed to be customized by you. Start by uploading your photo by clicking the Upload Photo button on the My MegaWidgets page. Then update your status by typing into the update status box and click the update button right next to it. Add your favorite audio from the pull down menu. If you don’t have any audio in the system, click the Record by Phone button or the Upload Audio button to choose an MP3 or .WAV file to upload.
\r\r\t\t\t\t\t\t
\r\t\t\t\t\tYou can then check your phone settings and decide if you want to allow others to call you or text you.
\r\t\t\t\t\t\t
\r\t\t\t\t\tFinally, choose what features you want to add to your MegaWidget. Click the Edit MegaWidget button to see your choices. You can make your MegaWidget public or private. If it is private, people will not be able to search for it and see it on Kadoink.com. Then pick what features you would like to have on your MegaWidget. Choose “Listen & Share”, “Message My Phone,” or “Text My Phone”module to trick out your MegaWidget. You can also customize it by selecting a skin. Remember, the audio in your audio locker will appear on the pull down menu of the Share by Phone portion of the MegaWidget.

\r\t\t\t\t\t
\r\t\t\t\t\t\t
\r\r\t\t\t\t - How can users interact with my MegaWidget?
\r\t\t\t\t\t\tYour MegaWidget gives a person access to your phone, your “status” and your Kadoink audio files. When a person sees your Mobile KTag, they will be able to connect to your phone with a call, text or voicemail. If a person would like to get updates when you change your status or add audio to your Kadoink account, they can follow you.
\r\r\t\t\t\t\t\t
