Skype now with SMS support
Tweet
So Skype just updated itself on my computer and I can now SMS straight from Skype. It even works in China! I sent myself an SMS for $0.0055 at that rate, I can afford to send SMS messages. To the States just $0.112. That’s not bad! Now we just have to keep China from blocking it…keep your fingers crossed.
I think I just found a new way to remind my students of a test!
