There are many similar services around the world..even in such a small country as Slovenia we have a few companies that provide free sms messages. Of course NOTHING IN THIS WORLD IS FREE and we should all be more than aware of that...So what is the trick?
It is simple...when you send you message, you only get to write let's say 70 characters instead of how much is one sms, 160? All other place is used for advertising - advertisers pay the company for their sms-costs and they benefit from more people seeing their ads...This is the whole story behind this!
I do remember one site that actually did let you send stuff for free and with all 160 characters, but it was shut down very soon, so I am sure it was something illegal...
As I've said before, nothing in this world is free...If you don't give money, you give your time, your attention...think about it!

wow, nice opinion, nothing is free, your time, your attention., is some kind of money too.
hmm, so even nothing is free, i think the word free must be changed to 'cheap' isnt it?
