Fast IM, SMS, and Email on ANY mobile phone/PC in one program - Gizmo5

My computing time is shifting from my PC to my phone. What's bothersome is that different people communicate via SMS, IM, and email, so I end up having to toggle between programs inefficiently. SMS, IM and email are similar — they're just blasts of words sent between people. I shouldn't have to launch multiple programs.

Starting today, you can use the new Gizmo5 on your mobile phone to do IM, SMS and email in one place. When a user is not available via IM you can type a message and select an alternate delivery method — SMS or email. If they reply, it automatically appears in the chat tab with that user. This makes it possible to have a chat-type experience with anyone even if they're an email or SMS user.

AI will soon rule the world. It will decide if you paid your taxes, qualify for a mortgage, whether your kid is admitted to university, if someone is eligible for parole, if you've been naughty on social media, etc. EVERYTHING. But what happens if it's WRONG? Here's an unbelievable and ominous situation where a cybersecurity company publishes a report stating an American company was part of a Chinese cybercriminal organization. The story spread around the world. One enormous problem: the software they claim as evidence doesn't exist, but nobody bothered to research it. No news site. No security companies. Nobody.
