Vodafone (NYSE: VOD) UK is trialling a new service to enable users to send text messages from their Facebook profile to friends.
Vodafone Connect to Friends lets Facebook users send texts and picture messages without having to switch from PC to mobile simply by installing the ‘Vodafone Connect to Friends’ application to their Facebook profile. The application allows users to send messages not only to their online Facebook friends but also to non-Facebook users and groups. Vodafone Connect to Friends can be used by anyone regardless of their choice of UK mobile operator.
Initially you get 25 free text credits and further messaging credits can be bought through Pay4it. The cost of sending messages is set at 10p per text and 30p per picture message for the duration of the pilot.
