 SMS 


These come and go like the wind...

If it is free, read the find print - they must make money somehow. Usually by sending ads by email or SMS.

  • Ipipi - send SMS worldwide from any computer and receive SMS replies as email. Text message with friends in over 150 countries - 99% of all mobile networks are covered. $US0.10 per text message
  • SMSPup - let you send free SMS Messages to any mobile phone in Australia, in exchange for receiving ads in your email
  • Noodle Invitations - send free SMS messages - organize parties, invite people - in exchange for receiving occasional surveys and email/SMS promotions.
  • BlueSkyFrog - 30 cents per SMS. Free credits if you choose to receive ad emails or recommend a friend.
  • ICQ - unlimited and free - need to belong to ICQ first - doesn't give your mobile number as the sender, so include it in your SMS (yep, big pain). For Australian numbers, the trick is to leave off the zero - so for my number I entered 407 and 03186X, whereas my number is normally 040703186X. Only Vodafone (as at Sep 2006) for Australia, Bell for Canada, plus Israel & Singapore
  • GoMo - no longer free, but still very cheap and cool.
  • Net2Mobile - 19 cents per Web--->SMS
  • Free SMS Mate - 5 free every day, to the UK or AU
  • Intazaar - dead
  • GoFreeSMS (now called mobiK) - free, but "Each message you send is appended with an 'ad tag' from our sponsors."
  • MentionIt - dead
