Overview
Peekamo is a privately-held corporation based in Toronto Canada and is the leader in free text messaging social networks. The company was founded in 2006 by mobile phone technologist and enthusiast Al Sajoo. Al's vision was to develop a free text messaging solution that provides comfort, safety, ease of use and most important, no cost text messaging all from the world wide web or a mobile phone. This vision was realized in April 2007 with the official release of Peekamo 2.0 and recognized by the renowned social networking blog
Mashable.com and the internet search engine
Yahoo.com.
Peekamo works on any mobile phone capable of text messaging or on any data-enabled PC or Mac, anywhere in the world. Because of it's simplicity and non-reliance on downloaded software, Peekamo works on more mobile phones than any other free text messaging mobile service the company is aware of.

Peekamo solves both the cost and technical problems with its universal platform for PC to mobile and mobile to PC text messaging. Businesses and consumers, with Peekamo, can all get what they want and need from the mobile with one simple and easy to use service.

Peekamo provides this no cost service to the user by including a small targeted "relevant" ad message from our customers and sponsorers in each message. Peekamo ads are non-intrusive and create greater value for both business who want to reach their desired potential customers and consumers who show interests in their products and/or services. Peekamo ads are embedded into messages rather than pushed to the user to avoid spam like behavior of sms text messages that can be seen in many of today's mobile marketing practices.
