Ok, I got my invite to Ribbit Mobile after being alerted to it from BT yesterday on their RSS Feed. What is Ribbit? Well, its Google Voice for the UK currently. Ive signed up and it quickly took control over my voicemail. People can leave voicemails for me on my normal mobile, and Ribbit will transcribe the messages and send it back to me in an SMS

Simon was kind enough to trial it out and in the above screenshot, it shows he left me a message and it automatically types out what he said in the message. Sure, the transcribing isnt instantaneous and it takes about 5-10mins, but its still decent enough. Ive got 10 invites here to try it all out for free if anyone wants a go to see what its like.

Thats pure coincidence that Ribbit.com has liked this. I didnt even know they were on FF!
- Giraffes Up In The AIr
Theres supposebly other features like free sms I can send on, but I havent bothered to figure that out yet. Will do all this tomorrow! Need to go collect that carrot Simon was on about!

Tomorrow, im going to Sainsburys to Pick up Call of Duty MW2 for the PS3. They are selling it for £26 ($43) How much of a bargain is that for a brand new game?! :)

Nice, I'll be grabbing a PC version at some point. As I have an impromptu day off I can start looking for the best prices for a few games I'm after. Just waiting for my money to come through from my last job.
- Kol Tregaskes
Yeah! Its gonna be awesome. Cant wait to go online with it at least, or get the girlfriend to do the multiplayer mission with me! :D
- Giraffes Up In The AIr
Cool. I got the first one cheap on STeam the other day, might try that later.
- Kol Tregaskes
I wandered around the shops in Horsham last Thursday and saw this in Argos for 50-60 quid! LOL. No chance.
- Kol Tregaskes
I think if you spend more than £30 on a game you are spending too much. Either shop around or wait for the price to drop (which can only be a few weeks).
- Kol Tregaskes
Defo, go play it! Its loads of fun! Its a bit crazy the RRP for this is £55. Sainsburys selling it for less than half. Mental. Just shows you the profit margin that GAME makes.
- Giraffes Up In The AIr
You can pick up classics like BioShock for under a tenner atm. Snapped that up as soon as I saw it. Really looking forward to the sequel. :-)
- Kol Tregaskes
Asda are selling it tomorrow for £32 as confirmed in the papers today. Tesco havent announced anything i dont think.
- Giraffes Up In The AIr
Actually at £26 they'll be making a little loss on the game, so it's a little puzzling but it's there call and I'm not complaining. :-)
- Kol Tregaskes
MW is a great game
- ffcode
yeah! Sainsburys dont open til 8am though, so will be getting the lad from college, then driving round to it! I dont care if im late for University, ill never be able to get this game that cheap for a few years guaranteed! :)
- Giraffes Up In The AIr
I think most of the supermarkets are selling new top games cheap nowadays. I know ASDA is one who sells them dirty cheap.

Is FF really dead or are wave invites saturated? Gone are the days when people used to pounce any variation of the word "Wave".
