Most of the netizens are aware of the Ad menace on the web. They do not click on the rattling ad’s which promises some reward. Some even install ad blocker in their browser’s to prevent the ad’s from displaying in the first place. I too never bothered to click or even read these ad’s but last week an interesting ad caught my attention when I was browsing on my mobile a.k.a my mini pc. It look irresistible & I clicked it instinctively.
The Ad was of some mobile email service named “Yuurok”. The name sounded something different, something interesting to me. The ad read that Yuurok is a email service for your mobile, which lets you download & also attach attachments on your phone. This sounded really nice. They also promised to send you an SMS when you receive a mail in your inbox. The offer sounded good & I signed up for Yuurok.
I tested it and it indeed did what it promised & that too perfectly. I was able to download attachments & even attach files in my emails. Also everytime a new message arrived in my Inbox, I got an SMS informing me about it. They also give you some free download of Kung Fu Panda wallpapers on signup. I downloaded all of them without any costs. They also send you cool news alerts on your mobile, if you subscribe to them.
I am delighted with the service of this new entrant in the email arena. I think this service will be accepted by those pesky sites which do not allow registration by yahoo, gmail(Free email providers) etc. The thing I liked the most about Yurrok is, it does it’s work very efficently. I think I will soon ditch my favourite yahoo which do not offer a complete regular version of their site on mobile. Also the Yahoo Go application is not that good. No ability to compile mail is one shocker in Yahoo Go !!
Now I think at least I made a good thing clicking on that ad. 
Sign up for Yuurok
