Send FREE SMS (Text Message) from Gmail
Gmail (Google) offered you to make a FREE voice call to US and Canada telephone numbers but did you know that Gmail also has a FREE SMS service?
You can send FREE SMS (text messages) to your contacts in select countries including the Philippines and USA directly from your Gmail account.
I have tested it by sending a text message to my own mobile phone and I received the text message instantly, no delay. I think you can make 50 FREE SMS messages per day.
Procedure to send SMS from Gmail (procedure from Google website):
(1) Log into your Gmail account. In the Send SMS box above Chat, enter the phone number you want to send a SMS to.
