If youve ever needed to leave someone a message but didnt want to risk actually talking to the person, its easy. Just Ping them.
Pinger.com is a messaging system that lets you immediately send voice mail to a friend or a group without calling them directly.
Sign up for the service and type in the names of your contacts, or automatically load them in from your email list.
When youve got a message to get out, just call the number Pinger gives you and say who you want to send the message to - whether its one person or twenty - and record a message.
Pinger then sends out a text message to everyone youve listed.
When your friends call the number in the message, theyll hear your voice memo.
You can also manage your messages on the website just like email.
Listen, delete, reply or forward messages with ease.
You can even get voice messages from several celebrities like Dr. Phil or American Idol Mohawk-wearer, Sanjaya.
So when you need to reach out and touch someone, try Pinger.com.
Getting your message out is just a phone call away.
