Google has taken one more step forward to have a place in your home permanently by introducing scraps on mobile for orkut Brazil and orkut India.
Just visit the settings tab in your account and locate the ‘mobile’ button on the top tabs.
There you enter your mobile number for verification and Gooo on.
HANG ON!!
There is a small note there,which says ” orkut SMS is a premium service and your carrier may charge you for sending and receiving SMS.”
Now do what you like.If you wish to stop at this point, its OK, life is normal and it doesn’t end here right? And If you wish to continue there is another break ahead.Your mobile carrier must be one of these, aircel,tata, MTNL, spice, vodafone, reliance and BPL.
Its a shame that the countries largest mobile service provider Airtel and second largest provider BSNL are not in the list.
The pricing given by Google are as follows:
Messages sent: 2 INR for all carriers except MTNL for which it’s just a rupee.
Notifications received: Free up to your monthly limit. (What does that mean? I have no clue).
So are you gonna use SMS for scrapping?
Google certainly thinks soo, that we’ll use SMS for scrapping from bus, college and even from bathroom.
Ohh C’mon Google, this is India and this isn’t a free service.
