Our free text messaging tool is also very popular. Enjoy!
Here’s what Jaiku does:
* Browse and post Jaikus
* Add comments
* Share your availability based on your ring profile (green light = ringing, yellow light = vibrate, red light = silent)
* Share your location (neighborhood, city, country) based on cellular network towers
* Share your calendar events (if you don’t want to share your calendar, Jaiku only displays your status as “busy” when an event is active)
* Share who you’re with based on nearby Bluetooth devices
Sounds great but I still do not know what a Jaiku is?

I ran across fring the other day, and it piqued my interest. The first thing that jumped out at me was that voice calls using fring are pure data - meaning the calls do not consume your wireless minutes at all.
fring boasts the following features:
- take all IM buddies mobile and view them from one, integrated contact list
- free calls
- live chat instead of SMS
- call landlines and regular cellular contacts using SkypeOut or SIP
- view call history
- send & receive files
- choose incoming call and message tones
- auto-roam in and out of WiFi hotspots
Not too shabby! Try it out for yourself.

Anyone that uses chat or IM (instant messenger) from their cell phone should check out the free mobile service from eBuddy.
eBuddy provides a freely accessible website that lets users chat or IM using their Yahoo!, MSN Messenger, or AIM accounts. Currently in Beta, the service is available in both a desktop version and a mobile version.
Clearly, many mobile phone users find text messaging (SMS) sufficient for quick text communication from their cell phone. But for the increasing number of folks that spend a lot of time using their Instant Messenger (IM) client on their PC, the mobile service will allow them to continue conversations or start new chats while they are out and about.
Be aware that the eBuddy mobile website requires an Internet connection from your cell phone, so any carrier charges will apply.
The desktop version of eBuddy can be particularly useful as well. For example, those pesky company firewalls often prevent the use of the IM client applications while at work. Users can browse over to the desktop version of eBuddy and chat away. Obviously, you should always understand and consider your company policies before using any chat or IM services from work.
