Free Jangl Upgrade Available

Source: www.voip-news.com

Jangl, Inc. recently announced the availability of a new free upgrade that will let users send and receive text messages from an computer or mobile handset, opening the company up to a whole new, important market.  Between the upgrade and their current service, Jangl customers can now:

Be private:  By talking, exchanging voicemails, and now swapping text messages — on any phone or personal computer — without ever sharing their private phone number;

Save money:  By eliminating some text messaging fees and drastically reducing most long distance calling charges, and;

Stay connected:  With anyone, anywhere, with or without your phone, easily adding friends to your Jangl network and choosing when and how they can connect with you.

“Jangl’s contextual utility in social networks has been enhanced significantly in this latest service release,” said Michael Cerda, CEO and co-founder of Jangl, Inc., in a recent press release. ”For several months, our loyal customers have been asking us to develop a text solution that would enable them to stop toggling keyboards and text quickly and efficiently with all of their online friends, while, at the same time, continuing to deliver on the most popular customer benefits of Jangl services – cost savings, privacy and safety. With today’s debut, we connect a more diverse group of people and, in turn, dramatically expand our partner offerings and our revenue potential. In the near-future, we’ll detail how Jangl will work with brand marketers to let millions enjoy all of these features and functionality at little or no cost to the end-user.

Highlights include:

Jangl phone numbers can be used for direct, phone-to-phone SMS messaging, keeping both parties’ real phone numbers completely private;

Text messaging can be initiated from either a PC or a phone, and can be delivered to either;

Sending and receiving text messages via the web interface is 100% free3;

Text messages are also delivered to a customer’s Jangl inbox and email address;

Jangl’s U.S. customers have the option of having text messages sent directly to their mobile phones;

Jangl customers can control, at an individual-contact level, whose text messages are delivered where, directly to the phone, to the inbox, or  both;

Customers outside of the U.S. can send and receive text messages over the web using the web interface on the Inbox and Contacts pages.  Jangl will extend additional features to other regions over coming months.
