Mjoy makes the mobile web take off with a worldwide service to provide benefit, fun, and value to phone users.



Mjoy.com, a mobile web portal based in Germany, is offering a new service allowing users to send free text messages to any phone in the world - without limitations, across network borders, absolutely free of charge. This helps users stop wasting money on messaging and provides an excellent base for speedy personal communications anytime, anywhere. Additional content, such as videos, pictures and sounds, is also available for free on mjoy''s mobile web portal.

The mjoy site combines free communications, attractive shopping channels run by prestigious companies, fun videos, pictures and sounds for the mobile, and access to information on mobile web pages provided by trustworthy partners. Browsing the web shouldn''t be pain, so the portal is optimised for experience on all relevant handsets available on the market. Mjoy is still a young service and will be expanding into a growing social network over the coming months, featuring full user profiles and many ways to broadcast oneself. Mjoy ensures its service is fun for users, who can create their own decks, install individual applications, and experience why the mobile web means value.



Oliver Wimmeroth, MD and co-founder of mjoy, comments: "Mjoy''s outstanding attraction is its powerful communications tool. For the first time free messaging is available, and provides a useful device for people leading a mobile way of life. Intuitive and without costs, sending and receiving messages is really easy and the advertising on mjoy.com guarantees that it will stay that way. Mjoy is an ad-funded service so it helps finance the bill for free text messaging if users click on advertising, but only if they like what they see. Mjoy is all about benefits for its users, so the ads should reflect this."



Currently run in beta mode, the developers invite users to preview the mjoy portal and free text messaging service at http://www.mjoy.com. Users can also to send in their ideas, feedback, and opinions for further development so mjoy can progress towards its aim of becoming the single most user-orientated mobile web portal.



Mjoy and its operator, Venista Group have used their knowledge of internet developments, suited specifically for the mobile phone, to offer an experience adapted to what consumers like when they use their phones. Mjoy is currently in the process of completing deals, with two major German trade corporations and a renowned partner from the content distribution business, to take their first steps on the mobile web. The company has bound itself to a privacy policy safeguarding the individual information of its users. It is the highest aim of mjoy to become a platform of value providing all possible services that provide fun and benefit to mobile users.

Homeowners are being warned not to be caught out by ‘rogue’ damp proofing companies, after severe weather ruined homes across the UK. This warning has come from award-winning UK damp proofing company, Holland Damp Proofing, who are concerned about ‘cowboys’ cheating vulnerable householders.



Thousands of properties have been damaged after periods of heavy rainfall, flooding and severe winds swept across England and Wales and many homes run the risk of being affected by damp. “Home owners should be as vigilant as ever. The weather has been so severe damp problems in homes will become even more apparent.

“The ‘cowboys’ will prey on this to try and cheat householders, particularly elderly people. Unfortunately, no matter where you live there are always unscrupulous people who want to cheat us out of our money,” explained Holland Damp Proofing Managing Director, Evert De Graaf.



Evert De Graaf, who started working in the damp proofing business in Holland where half the land lies under sea level, said: “Don’t answer the door to uninvited salesmen without identification. Be aware of one trick which is to tell people that your home is particularly susceptible to damp.



“If you are left out of pocket or you feel unhappy about the service you have received, remember to report rogue tradesmen to Trading Standards as it may help to protect others.”



Holland Damp Proofing uses an innovative method to rid homeowners of the irritations of damp, condensation and mould. The system is completely natural and doesn’t use harmful chemicals like other traditional damp proofing methods. Instead, by using specially designed bricks, the Holland Damp Proof System® dries out moisture in the walls using airflow, allowing your home to ‘breathe’ and creating better insulating walls.



Not only is it a practical, cost effective, eco-friendly, and permanent solution, all the work is completed from the outside meaning there is no need to redecorate or replaster. The system, which comes with a 20 year guarantee, works on all types of walls to tackle problems such as rising damp, penetrating damp, condensation and mould – that can lead to structural damage and health problems if left untouched.  



The system is the ‘green’ answer to problems of damp – protecting your home, your health and the environment. To find a reliable damp proofing tradesmen visit www.dampproofing.com or call 0808 155 2571 (FREEPHONE).
