An updated version of Nimbuzz is now available. Now, if I’m honest I’ve not come across this software before so I’ll explain a bit more about it. For starters, it’s free. Brilliant. It’s a “mobile social messenger” which mixes VoIP, instant messaging (Skype, Windows Live Messenger, Yahoo! Messenger, ICQ, GoogleTalk, AIM), social networks (Facebook and MySpace), file-sending, location-sharing. The new version is nicer to look at too, with SkypeOut support, SIP calling and a dial pad. For a better look at it, watch this video.
This is well worth a try and could save you money on calls if you pipe everything through WiFi or a flat-rate data plan (presuming those nasty networks haven’t blocked the ports). 😉
