Wow nice post!!!!!!!!!!!!11
Good bye i am going to try?
wow new feature from yahoo. well, for me it will be the trusted messaging service and helps when SMS pack expires.. lol
Well you are right.. It will be helpful in case the SMS pack expires.. I already started using this service 😀
Isn’t this an old feature?
Wherein if your message will be sent as an SMS if your friend/buddy is offline and he/she registered his/her mobile number in yahoo.
Although there is a limit to this service because you can only send message from YM to his/her mobile phone if he/she replied.
i heard this trick sometime back but never tried ,as the process itself is so lenghty to login and dod stuff …. sms nowadays have become so cheap …
Sourish
nice feature, only problem is the limit of no of messages you can send.
Yes, that’s the only problem. User need to reply to the messages to recieve more messages. That’s the bad thing.
Wow! this new feature kick ass! Thank you for providing such a useful informations
This is a good feature by Yahoo. But i think VOIP services are blocked in certain countries so i don’t think we can use yahoo to send free sms to anywhere i the world.
I don’t know about other countries but I tried it in India and it’s working fine here 🙂
does not work to UK numbers
