Techtree News Staff, May 15, 2008 1449 hrs IST
AOL Mail and AOL Messenger users in India will now be able to send free instant messages and SMSes to mobile phones.
America Online (AOL) which started India operations sometime back, has announced that its Mail and Messenger users in India will now be able to send free instant messages and SMSes to mobile phones. Recipients will also be able to reply back to messages sent through AOL's network.
An AOL spokesperson said the mobile market in India is growing at a faster pace than the Internet market and that the new services would help bridge the gap between telecom and the Internet. AOL services are available on most telecom networks including Airtel, Vodafone, and MTNL (Mahanagar Telephone Nigam Limited).
AOL claims they were the first portal to start instant messenger services (AIM); AIM is today claimed to be one of the most popular instant messenger services with more than 67-million users worldwide and roughly 2-billion messages being sent every day.
