have you tried the free mobile YM?

wow..can you teach me how?

It might be my age but my partner and I only use our mobile phones for phone calls although I do know that our children (all adults) use theirs to send photos, text messages and who knows what else to each other and their friends. Our own personal mobile phone, as distinct from the one that my employers provide for me, is on a plan where we can call one designated number if it is with the same network. The calls are free providing they do not exceed 10 minutes each call and are made between 8.00 pm and 6.00 am but can only call the same number for a maximum of 60 minutes in a day. That means my partner can call me using her mobile phone 6 times in a day and it doesn‘t cost us any thing unless we exceed the 10 minutes with each call. It is a good plan for us to be on and we specifically chose that one because I am often away from home driving the truck but we can still stay in contact without is costing us a fortune and most of the time it actually costs nothing as we will disconnect and then she can call me back for another 9minutes 50 seconds. So most mornings she will call me around 6.00 am or earlier in the summer months is she knows that I will be leaving earlier to make a delivery. She also phones me every night which means that I know what is happening on our small organic farmlet, what she is doing etc and also she knows what my schedule is and whether she can expect me home that day or maybe the next. Good luck to those who can use the new technology but it is not all for these old bones. lol

I've tried that and have been using it for months now. :) I was a SUN subscriber before but when I heard about the free YM, I switched back to globe. :D

Yeah i have tried it but it's pretty much hard to connect sometimes. It's even hard to reload the pages of the chat window but still it's better than nothing and it's free so i shouldn't complain. It comes in handy too for those who are always away from their computer. You can even check you email too and download attachments. It's a great feature from Globe.
