SEND SMS FREE!!!!!!!!!!!!

Mobiles have become a part of our life and so are the sms . Eventually as a greedy human being i felt the need of sending free sms and saving some bucks. After googling for a while i came across many services some  of which i have been personally using from a long time.

A List of some of the services are as follows :

160by2 : This site i have been using from a long time. A WAP version of this site is also available which i use for sending free sms . So this is actually a good service but the one thing which i hate about them is they allow only 80 characters to be sms other 80 are for advertise.

REDIFF MESSENGER : You can even send sms using this service truly speaking  this was the first service i had used to send free sms. Again the problem here is that you can only send 3 sms for sending more sms you will have to wait for recipient's reply.

 

 

 

 

WAY2SMS: Even this is a nice service allowing us to send up to 110 characters per sms . They claim to have a WAP site at m.way2sms.com . But i could never open it using my mobile browser.

SMS GUPSHUP : Well this service is comparatively new to me new. According to me it is the perfect mobile service just login and send sms to all your friends.

MYCANTOS : This is basically a social networking site where in you can send free sms to anyone. It allows 120 characters per sms . It is also present in Orkut in form of an application which can be added to once profile and then used to send free sms.

YAHOO MESSENGER : Even yahoo messenger allows you to send free sms to india similar to rediff. With yahoo you may also send sms to some other countries.

FREESMS8: This was new to me , it claims of empowering users with hassle-free way of sending SMS free of cost to any mobile in India.

SMSFAME : This is a wonderful tool to send free sms to friends. And the better part is that it is allows us to send 160 characters per sms!!!!!!!!GREAT….

If  I may have left any particular service please notify me via comments.Your comments are welcome.

Microsoft launches its new free Antivirus

From a long time , gossip has been in the air that Microsoft is probably going to launch new antivirus ever since it discontinued “Onecare” Antivirus. Microsoft revealed it yesterday and it is now available for download on their website.

 

The new free antivirus software is codenamed as “Morro”(after a beach in Sao Paulo in Brazil)  is actually called ‘Microsoft Security Essentials’.Microsoft claims that its free antivirus gives full protection from Viruses, Spyware, Rootkits, and Trojans, similar to other paid enterprises antivirus software. "Morro" is likely to  to compete with other anti-virus products from providers like symantec , kaspersky , AVG etc.

Dave Cole , senior director of product management at Symantec

"Morro is essentially a stripped-down version of Microsoft's failed OneCare product. It didn't offer adequate protection when it was payware , and it offers even less as freeware"
