Winston ----- Original Message ----- From: Peter Webber To: Winston Sent: Saturday, October 20, 2001 6:28 PM Subject: CHIKKA is now powered by both SMART and GLOBE! Dear fellow Pinoy (Kababayan), I just want to share this good news to all.. This actually is about being proud as a Filipino, since recently a group of young, talented Filipinos developed the FIRST EVER ABSOLUTELY FREE, downloadable TXT Messenger that allows PC and mobile clients to communicate with one another in real-time -- anytime, anywhere! Two-way mesaging between a PC and mobile phones.. no kidding.. Check it out! http://www.chikka.com/download.html Chikka is a free, downloadable TXT Messenger that allows PC and mobile clients to communicate with one another in real-time - anytime, anywhere. Whether people are on an SMS-enabled mobile phone or in front of a PC, they can now send instant messages back and forth with Chikka's absolute connectivity. Chikka is the next generation in communication. With utter ease and simplicity, one can register onto Chikka, send and receive messages, add or delete a buddy in an exclusive group, and open his or her Chikka account from any PC or from one's mobile phone without having to recreate settings and buddy lists. In fact, mobile phone users can access Chikka from their mobile phones without having to connect to the Internet through a PC. Chikka is the first to offer full instant messaging functionality on a mobile client. At a glance, too, users are able to detect which buddy is on-line and whose phone is active! Chikka Txt Messenger is a wireless version of instant messengers (IMs) popular among online PC users (AOL IM, ICQ IM, Yahoo and MSN IM, etc). All the functionalities of these IMs, including presence detection, adding and deleting buddies, and sending and receiving messages are now available on any short message service (SMS) enabled phone. Anyway, the great thing about this is the fact that Filipinos around the world especially those who are working or are now residing abroad has this opportunity now to be closer to their loved-ones backhome, by communicating to them realtime anytime, anywhere, and expect a reply no matter what. Isn't that amazing? You don't even have to call anymore. Initially they (Chikka) started out with only Smart Communications as a telco supporting their services, but the good news I want to share to Globe users out there is that GLOBE TELECOMS is now part of the Chikka community! Just send the word "GLOBE" to 2371, for all Globe users to start the Chikka experience. For Smart Comm. users, simply send the word "CHIKKA" to access code 277. Make sure that if you are a mobile phone user, to register via your phone to take advantage of the "unified account" membership (PC and Mobile User account in one). For PC only users, simply download the FREE Chikka IM from http://www.chikka.com/download.html ... Please don't let this opportunity to be closer to friends and loved-ones pass you by.. Share this to your friends and relatives, whereever they are.. or just tell them to send the word GLOBE to 2371, if they are Globe users, or send the work CHIKKA to 277, if they are Smart users (iChat). Just don't forget to add me as your buddy! Thanks a lot for your time. Maraming Salamat po. Bro. Peter (PW). |
