How to send free SMS and make free phone calls in India ?

All of us would be lured by advertisements in the net which promises us free phone calls and SMS .But belive me most of them are either fake or too useless that you can make it from your phone itself :P .Internet calls work on the basis of VOIP .There are also host of services that enables you to send free SMS .But most of them append ads and allow only half the length for an SMS ( say 80 characters ) . Use them only if you feel it is not urgent for you, because some of the free phone call services  irritate you too much or some SMSes are not delivered itself :( .
I found "Tuitalk" personally useful when I used them to talk to my friend in Singapore :) .Similarly the SMS services will be useful if you find some useful information ( address , phone number , product features ) and want them to be sent to a mobile .In that case if you make use of a free SMS service you can copy paste the content from a website into the SMS service and send it :) .
Let me list out some of the services which I found useful

What are online IDE's?

Any programming language requires a development environment to compile and run the code .It will be cumbersome to download and install every language's IDE .Eclipse is ofcourse generic IDE, but that again requires considerable amount of space .It is used generally for developing full fledged applications .What I am talking is about simple online IDE's .They serve the purpose of learning new language by enabling us to try out some simple programs .For example, to learn Ruby it may some time require more effort for a user to download and set up the environment needed .As the user will just try out basic examples he will be satisfied with online IDE itself :)

Online IDE's are not recommended for developing complex applications .Listed below are some of the online IDE's
Apart from these there are language specific online IDE's too .Have Fun :)

What are online budget management tools ?

Budget management is very important for a person to have a check at ones expenses .We also need to find out how much we are spending on which stuff ? . We may want to compare  our last few months expenses on entertainment ? .All these things need not be written down and calculated .There are simple softwares which can accomplish that .And again let us not purchase or install softwares on our home PC .Because those tools have these disadvantages
  • Cost incurred to buy software if it is not free
  • Since the software is installed in home PC you cannot update it from a remote location (say fromyour office when you make an expenditure there and hence may forgot to update it when you come back home)
To overcome these limitations we can go for online  budget management tools .Because of these cloud based budget applications, you can update your accounts from anywhere using your smartphone or an internet connected computer .Most of them are free of cost !! .Let me list down some of the online budget tools

What is online backup ? Are they free ?

Backup of critical data is very crucial.Media devices like external hard-disk,cds,dvds are one choice .But that brings in two problems
  • extra cost involved for buying the backup devices
  • additional overhead for transporting them and safeguarding them.
"Online backup" is the solution :)
.Sometime we feel some big media files (eg an event video) to be shared among friends .It is not possible to send several GBs of files over mails . I feel online back up serves you to share large volumes of data .It will be also useful in scenarios where you work in  some remote computer and have large volumes of data, to be used when you reach office next day .In that case you can just upload your data to these online cloud data centers :)
Let me list some of the online storage services
Most of the back up services allow you to have free acess with limited storage after which you have to pay a substantial amount .But for personal use free access will be good enough i guess :)
