JaxtrSMS: Send Free SMS To Any Local & International Mobile Number

Sending SMS messages to any local destination may not be a big issue for most mobile users, thanks to carrier offerings and smartphone applications that allow internet-based messaging even in cross-platform scenarios. However, two limitations/issues associated with such an approach usually exist. First, in most cases, the recipient has to be a user of the same app that you’re using (e.g., Viber or TextFree), and second, the same app may not be available for one particular mobile platform, thus greatly reducing usability for the users of said OS. Enter JaxtrSMS – a free, cross-platform application that not only provides diverse platform compatibility, but also lets you send text messages to virtually any mobile number on the planet, irrespective of whether the recipient uses JaxtrSMS or not. Details to follow after the break. Read More

But wait till you find out what are the two operating systems this baby is running. One of them is Symbian, and the other is Windows 7! You read that right, it is Windows 7, not WP7, as it logically should have been (although that would have left the inclusion of Symbian pretty pointless). To a few people this idea might sound appealing, but frankly we find it quite strange! Read More

Symbian’s new photo styling and sharing spearhead, MOLOME, after enjoying much acclaim in the Ovi Store, has decided to take its chances with Android.

You sign in to your MOLOME account, view, “Love” and comment on photos in the public timeline, follow and interact with other “Molians”, view your MOLOME profile, snap photos, apply one of 19 available filters to each and share it to your MOLOME wall and/or social media accounts (Facebook, Twitter).
