Nimbuzz provides a number of ways for users to communicate inexpensively. After two parties have downloaded Nimbuzz, they can place mobile-to-mobile calls for the same price as what their providers charge for a local calls. There are no restrictions, which makes the service appealing for international calls. To make a call, you just have to click on a contact and hit “yes” two times. The person you are calling will receive a message that you are trying to call them. If they accept and hit “yes” two times, you will be connected. Group (conference) calls can be made with up to five people.
Nimbuzz also supports PC-to-mobile, mobile-to-PC and PC-to-PC calls. These calls can be made to Nimbuzz, Gtalk, MSN, Skype and AIM buddies and are either free or cost what you pay for a local call.
Users can also send text messages using SMS. As long as both parties have Nimbuzz installed there is no charge to send or receive messages (besides for data charges by your carrier). Nimbuzz text messages have no character limits and in addition to just texting, users can also chat with Nimbuzz, MSN, Skype and Google Talk buddies for free.
If you want to talk or chat with one of your friends and they aren’t online, you can “BUZZ” them. When “BUZZED” a user’s phone will ring once or twice and display the Nimbuzz ID of the person trying to reach them.
