Send SMS With Your PC

SMS is short for Short Message Service - still have no idea what we are talking about ? Ok how about Text Messages ? Now you get it. Ok well Text Messages are a very popular form of communication these days, for some reason people love messing with their Mobile Phones for a few minutes, and then firing off a Message.

To send a Text Message it’s easy, you just take your Phone out of your pocket, tap away, and then press send. Why would anybody want to complicate it by using a computer?

Well there are several reasons, why somebody would be interested in using a computer to send an SMS, firstly it’s Free! Everybody loves something that’s Free. Normally to send a Text Message it costs 10 cents, which may not seem like much money, but it really mounts up!

Everybody loves a Freebie - it used to be possible to get Free Text Messages using your Mobile Phone. All you had to do was enter an SMSC Number (SMS service centre number) different to your own, and you could Text for Free.

However the Networks clamped Down on this pretty quickly, now the only form of Free Texting is Online.

It’s very quick and easy to send a Text Message with a computer, even on the most Modern Phones that have predictive Text Messaging, it can be very difficult to write a Message. Just think how quick it is to type a message on your Computer, it’s much quicker than using your Phone that’s for sure!

Even if you only use one finger while you’re typing and stab the keys, it’s bound to be quicker than Texting.

For most people writing a Text Message using your Cell Phone just takes too long, it’s much easier to use your Computer.

There’s no need to send all the Messages at the same time with a Computer, you can schedule some to send later and queue them. Also Online Text Messages are fairly anonymous (even though they can be Traced), which make them perfect for pranks.

Not all of the Free Messaging Services are reliable, some don’t work at all, and others are very slow. Almost all of the Services will add some form of Advert to the bottom of your Message, although this may not cause much of a problem it does reduce the number of characters that you can send.

Be very careful when you are signing up to SMS Services, not all are Free, some send chargeable Text Messages to your Phone, which makes the Service very expensive.

Why would you want to send SMS from your Computer ?

It’s free to send Texts Worldwide, no International Rates.
It’s fast to enter the Text Message with your Computer keyboard.
It’s Free!.

--------------------------------------------------------------

Try it today, use a Free Online Text Messaging Service and see how they compare. We are sure you’ll like it because it’s Free!

If you get Free WAP, or Internet access as part of your Service plan, then why not try using your Online SMS Site over your Phone ? This gives you Free Texts without having to be near a Computer.

Common Computer Workstation Mistakes and Solutions For Pain Relief - Part 2

Do you spend long hours at your computer? If you are experiencing pain in your upper limbs (hand, wrist, neck, back or shoulder) check out your computer workstation design. Following are four computer workstation design challenges and solutions.

Monitor Positioned Incorrect With Respect to Overhead Light and Window:

If the computer user is facing the window (or if the outside light is shining directly on the monitor) office glare may be a factor. If long fluorescent light bulbs overhead are perpendicular to the direction you are facing it can reflect in your eyes. The eyes constantly refocus throughout the day and the added glare from these two light sources can increase the risk of eyestrain.

Solution: If you have long fluorescent light bulbs overhead try to face in the same direction as the length of the bulbs so the light will reflect off the side of your body instead of in your eyes. Place your monitor perpendicular to the window so the outside light will reflect off the side of your body. Due to the design of your office you may not be able to place your monitor correctly for each of these lighting sources. You may try closing or facing the blinds upwards to reduce the outside light.

Desk Is Too Narrow for Monitor and keyboard

If the desk is too narrow the monitor will be too close to the eyes in most instances. The uncomfortable feeling in the eyes will be immediately obvious and this will cause the computer user to move back to view the monitor comfortably. This will cause a reach to the keyboard and mouse with a great potential of creating discomfort in the shoulders.

Solution: The simple solution is to replace your large monitor with a flat panel. You will love it. Flat panels have really come down in price. Or purchase a desk that is deep enough to hold the monitor and keyboard AND allow you to work close to the keyboard without reaching and a comfortable distance from the monitor. The flat panel is probably the most economical and will create more peaceful aesthetics.

Keyboard and Mouse Too High Or Low:

This can create improper typing and mousing posture - either raising the shoulders creating tensed muscles or tilting neck down and creating bent wrists. Usually the keyboard is too high due to non-adjustable desks at standard manufacturing heights of 29".

Solution: Raise or lower the work surface so that the shoulders are in a relaxed position. This can be done with an articulating arm/tray or an adjustable height desk. When the elbows are bent they should be slightly higher than the top of the keys on your keyboard. Keep wrists straight when typing and do not rest on pads while typing.

Mouse at a Different Level than Keyboard:

This can create an awkward reach to the mouse. The arms should be close to the body when mousing with the elbows bent 90 - 120 degrees. Do not straighten your arm when mousing because it can cause fatigue and discomfort to the shoulder blade area.

Solution: Place the mouse directly next to the keyboard preferably with no break between the keyboard and mouse. Be sure that your shoulders are in a relaxed position.
