September 20, 2008

Hello bloggers and blog readers out there! This is Maitri from New Jersy, USA…thought of sharing the benefits that I have been receiving from the airtel call home. Well, amongst phone cards online, I just love airtel call home. The first reason is the cheap calling rates, which has come down to 6 cents from 9 cents and goes as low as 5.2 cents per minute. The second is the excellent voice clarity, which makes me feel that my near and dear ones are just a few metres away from me. The third is the easy connectivity and the uninterrupted network. Fourth is benefits through the ‘refer a friend’ scheme as well as the exciting festive and discounted offers introduced from time to time. And fifth is the easy dial feature enabling me to store more than a dozen numbers with short codes. The best part is that I use my Indian credit card to recharge!

And I have heard that this festive season, airtel call home entitles you to download movies for free, get benefits and free talk time with recharging by certain denominations and event get discounted air tickets and free pick up from airport to your home. Yes! Only Airtel can give such offers!

Let me share some tips implementing which you can enjoy free talk time very often.
Tip No. 1. Recharge your airtel call home with denominations more than 50$…you will get several minutes of free talk time as well as benefits
Tip No. 2: Refer as many friend as possible. If you refer 20 friend in a month; at least two or three will accept your reference. This will allow you to enjoy more than 100 minutes of free talk time

August 29, 2008

Hi to all those who are reading my blog! I am a software engineer settled here for the last five months. I have planned to pursue my career here at California for some years. Well, for middle class families like mine, money does matter. You cannot spend money just like that when low cost and high quality alternatives are there, especially in ISD calling. I am talking about phone cards India; I mean phone cards online for US India calling.
 
I have had a bad experience by using STI, Sprint and Reliance for the first two months. I was on the hunt for the most affordable and low cost service which at the same time has a good network, uninterrupted services, good voice clarity and what not. It was until a friend of mine who is also a newcomer to California referred me under the ‘Airtel CallHome — Refer a Friend‘ scheme. You won’t believe I got 30 minutes of free talktime, which is a bonus for me. As my friend is the referee, he got a free talktime of 60 minutes. Isn’t it exciting?

Today I am enjoying the services of this online phone card to my full satisfaction. The registration process is so easy and the call rates are lower than other telecom services providers like STI, Sprint, Reliance and others. You need not even remember so many long numbers as you can store up to 50 numbers by assigning short codes all for a quick dial. The charges are only 6 cents per minute and I have been already enjoying discounted rates every weekend. No other telecom providers give this benefits I bet! The pinless dialing and the quality of services of Airtel CallHome is just too excellent. Airtel CallHome Rocks!

Mobile Advertising Taking The Next Logical Step

June 5, 2008

The telecom industry has form when it comes to predicting “next big things. WAP-based services, location- based services and MMS all were going to be killer. Voice and messaging revenues continue to provide the vast majority of revenues, and while growth has gone out of many western markets, global players The problem is that it is very difficult to change habits of entire nations overnight. Internet search is really useful and, being free, has been a slam dunk in the “useful new things” category. Next big things are mobile advertising. Mobile advertising is just taking the next logical step. So those dreadful SMS ads that mobile phone companies insist on sending you when you roam from one network to another are useless, call internationally by using calling cards and resented because they are completely irrelevant. Context and usefulness to the user are the primary bits of learning that comes out of Web advertising. So people, who are talking about mobile services for free, where the user has to put up with receiving ads, are doomed to failure. No such thing as a free lunch

All of that juicy data on the user is locked up in a myriad of systems owned by the service provider. Then you have a gazillion different handset operating systems, so you multiply all of that together and you end up with data fragmented into billions of parts, all in different formats, and all making it very hard to get a single picture of the user. Just call your phone company and see the challenge they have in tying up various bits of information on you if you have more than one service. And while mobile service providers are often large, the fact is the global market is split across over 1,000 providers. So if an advertiser wants to hit the U.S. market for, say six-toed, red-haired men aged over 50 called Kevin, AT&T, Verizon and the rest can only offer them access to a slice of the market. To get to the whole market, the advertiser would need to work with several companies, or maybe those providers need to work together in some kind of service syndication. Users can opt-in to exposing certain information, just like Face book only monetizes what you choose to expose on your profile.
