Sending mom a link to VoxOx will give her even more access to keep in touch with you on a regular basis. When she sees all the possible ways you can send her your love, it will make her day. So, why not start with Mother’s Day? 

Here are five ways you can wish her a Happy Mother’s Day via VoxOx:

1.    Call her on-the-cheap

My mom’s in Canada and she thinks I spend big bucks on phone bills (makes her love me even more). What she doesn’t know is that it costs 1 penny per minute to call Canada from VoxOx!  Plus, when you sign up for VoxOx in the U.S. or Canada, the first $1 worth of VoxOx credit is on us, so you can call a bunch of places worldwide for super cheap. 

It’s so easy too – just find her on your contact list, right click to select the contact, and then press the little phone icon. You’ll be giving her a call in no time!

And, if she’s not in your contact list, just go for the keypad tab:

2.    Let the world know she’s your favorite lady!

Declare your love for mom on all your IM/social network statuses from VoxOx by simply typing your message in the global status bar: 

3.    Fax her “I love you, mom” to her office

She won’t be expecting to see it when she comes in on Monday, and it will start her day off on a happy note.

As with calling, find mom on your contact list, right click to select her contact, and then press the little fax icon. For more details on how to fax via VoxOx, see our Earth Day entry.

4.    SMS ur xoxo from VoxOx

If your mom’s like mine she won’t text you, but you bet she reads the ones she gets… so text her “Happy Mother’s Day!” and make her smile.

Just like calling and faxing, you can text by finding her on your contact list and right clicking to select. Then, hit the button that says “SMS.”

VoxOx charges a 1 penny for outbound domestic U.S. & Canada texts, a 2 pennies for international texts. All inbound texts are free! Not bad, eh?

5.    Tweet your love for mom in 50 languages

If your mom is a real “with it” mom she might have her own Twitter account. Well, if that’s the case, why not send her a few loving Twitter @replies through VoxOx?

To do this, just find her Twitter profile in your VoxOx contact list, click on the Twitter logo by her name, and select “reply to”.

Now, if your mom speaks more than one language, VoxOx has a special way for you to impress her. For example, if she grew up in France (and raised you in CA), you can type your Twitter @reply in English, it will post in French.

To do this, when you select “Reply to,” a chat window will pop up — click on the globe icon (bottom right). Set your language, your mom’s language, and voila! Now you can tell the world that you love your mom in 50+ languages.

So, there you go – five ways to let mom know how much you love her. And with that, our VoxOx team would like to wish a Happy Mother’s Day to moms everywhere!

So, I was asked to blog about my favorite features/ things to do with VoxOx. And after a solid period of thinking, reflecting and procrastinating, I decided to do it in list form…because who doesn’t like a good list? So without further ado, here are some of my favorite things to do with VoxOx.

1. Spoof your Number
Use the Caller ID Spoofer to put in your buddies home number, and then call his cell. That’ll freak him out. All you have to do is go to the Apps tab in VoxOx, click on the “CID Spoofer” icon, and enter the number you want to call from. Then make the call – that’s it!

2. Sharing an Entire Jazz Album with VoxOx File Sharing
My friends tell me I’m a music snob. That’s because they have no taste in music. All I’m saying is that they should listen to a little Dave Brubeck live at Carnegie hall in 1967. Share an entire album – or most any other type of file for that matter — by choosing the appropriate contact in your buddy list and clicking the share file button (the one with the arrow). Browse and select the appropriate files, and you’re good to go. A few easy steps to increase your friends’ music IQ.

3. Drinking and Dialing … Europe
Now that international calls are super cheap with VoxOx international rates … I’m calling my friend in Dublin after a couple beers. Should be interesting conversation right? Check out our international rates here. To purchase additional calling credit, click on the “Store” icon in the Apps tab.

4. Using Facebook Chat While I’m Supposed to be Working
For my bosses reading this, I’m just kidding. For everyone else, use VoxOx to log onto Facebook chat without having to be on the actual Facebook web site. This way you can pretend to be working, while actually chatting with friends. To get started, click on the profile picture of any of your Facebook friends in your Contacts tab. Click on the chat icon and … instant procrastination. Click here to get up to speed on all of our social networking features.

5. Sending Faxes Just Because I Can
You don’t need paper, and it takes like 10 seconds to do it, so why not send joke faxes to someone’s regular fax machine? To take advantage of our fax feature, pick a contact you want to bug (or send legitimate faxes to), click on the fax icon, and follow the three easy steps. You can also access the fax feature through the Keypad tab.
