SMS Messaging

Hi all,
here at home I have real problems with mobile reception when trying to type and send SMS messages. I tend to find reception to receive them though.
Does anyone have any recommendations for websites or software which can be used for SMS? All I want to do is send a message from the computer.
I looked at Yahoo!s SMS thing but it seems to be designed for two-way communication and I am guessing the messages dont appear with your number. It is free though to send messaages.
Thanks.

Depending what network you're on you should be able to send a web text from your mobile provider's webpage, which will appear as if it's come from your phone
The only trouble there is it will bill you as normal

I registered with O2 many years ago, I can send up to 8 free text messages per month from my PC. My mobile account isn't with O2.
I don't know if they still allow non-customers to do that, but worth a try.

OK, thanks for that. I will have a look on their site. Didn't actually occur to me that the provider might offer such a service
*EDIT*
Found it. Thanks.
