So now you have grown up and interested in what is happening in the country. Well! its a good thing. But we can sit around TV or internet all day, RIGHT?
So the only way left is to get news via SMS on your mobile that you always have with you. But here comes another problem. These news SMS may cost you, sometimes A LOT. Like 25rs+tax per month, and even in some cases 2.5rs+tax per SMS. I don't want to waste my money neither do you. So read below and get free news.
Alright! Lets Begin.
>> Goto this website.
>> Sign Up for a new account. Use a valid email id and mobile number because confirmation will be sent to both of them.
>> Check your email inbox and activate the account by clicking on the link.
>> When it is done, a confirmation will be sent to your mobile. Place it in the required field. Fill other fields as well.
>> Now when everything is done, you will see the main window, its something like this.
>> You know about twitter, we will use the same procedure here, follow some profiles.
>> In order to get news, follow the profiles below. These are the best that I have found so far. You can search and follow others and as many profiles as you like.
- D-news (personal favourite)
- Pakistani news
- News Buzz
- News Digest
- Mobile Digest (for technology lovers)
- Cricket Digest (for cricket lovers)
- BBC (its same a d-news I guess)
>> Click on Follow button to follow someone.
>> Time to adjust some settings. Click on Settings from the navigation menu.
>> Click on Mobile and you will see an option for Time Settings
>> Uncheck on Mute Timing to receive the messages anytime, otherwise set the time span in which you would like to receive messages. Now save the settings.
>> You will start receiving free news on your mobile no matter what network you are using.
>> Explore the site for more people and check other settings if you like.
>> And this is how you can get free news on your mobile.
IMPORTANT: Sending one SMS from your mobile to this site (replying, starring a message) will cost you around 60p. The site has introduced a new policy to send at least one message per month in order to receive the free SMS. So, this service will cost you like 60p per month. Still a better option I guess :)
