Free SMS with Gmail Chat
Did you know that you can send free sms through gmail chat? Yes I am definitely referring to the Google's web-mail right there on your web browser or the google talk app. Tried it a couple of times with different people and it works! Amazing huh? I bet only a few knew this and so the main reason why I blogged it. And today I will show how to do it. Ready? Already!!!
So first things first, you must know that you should have an active gmail account. Got me? So try logging into your own account now. I am logged as of the moment too!
Once your logged on, look for the chat section, I have mine on the right side, I bet you have yours on the bottom left part. Check out the lab section if you want to have your chat section at the right part.
If you wanna send out a message, just send that contact an instant message and alas! That person would receive that message right there and then!
Now you can send at most three sms to that number everyday only! Not bad at all. Once you reached the limit, your phone will receive this notification:
This is just one of the ways where you can send out free sms, you don't need to buy minutes or loads for your phone anymore! Lols, Our local Carriers will kill me for this...haha.
Enjoy with your free texts!

And then add a new contact with this format : 63 + your
10 digit mobile number @chikkatalk.com. So in my case, I entered
639072011***@chikkatalk.com. Once added, it will show as online and you
that phone number will receive an sms too.
