Free SMS (text message) service?

[SilentZero]

Is there a good free way to send a SMS from a PC to cell phones?

Go to the carrier's website, they usually have a webform there.

I have been wondering about this. I use Sprint and they have a webform where you can send text messages and read them too I believe, but I see no mention of whether it is free or not...

I've never, ever been charged for Sprint.

Well I don't know the provider of the person I am sending it too.

It looks like you can send text messages on their site, but I see no way of recieving them.

If you send and recieve text messages from a PC, isn't that e-mail?

i know www.O2.co.uk will give you free messages each month, of course you have to have a 02 sim card, id imagine most carriers do somthing similar

Um no you wouldn't be able to receive unless you have a cellphone.

www.teleflip.com

You send an e-mail to ##########@teleflip.com and it delivers it. When I tried the service it took about 12 hours for it to deliver the message, and they put an advertisement on the end of the message.

You need the carrier.

If you don't know who the carrier is, you need to find out (sometimes you can use an Internet white-pages reverse phone lookup to find out).

I saw a widget that can be added to your customized google.com page. Free in the US. Haven't tried.
