Useful Mobile Services That Cost Nothing

David Pogue of the New York Times has compiled a list of free mobile services that naturally work only in the US. Here's a listing of the services featured:

  • Google SMS - You can also find out useful information from Google via text.

  • FuturePhone - Pay only for a call to an access number, and call other countries for free.

  • Pinger - Mixes the benefits of SMS and voice maillinks together.

  • YouMail - Replace your service provider's voice mail.

  • Frucall - Find out how much something costs online.



I'd love to see versions of these services pop up in other countries. And I'm sure Google will have no problems getting local partners for its SMS services, especially in a text-avid country like the Philippines.

Fellow Filipinos living in the US, who like keeping in touch with relatives back home, will probably like FuturePhone, since its a cheap way of communicating.
