Fowe and Judokah; you guys have sucessfully hijacked hadassah's thread; and for good reason too.

"Is there anyone with information on a web application or mobile phone internet application that people would love to use, and which could also boost a business's productivity" . . . I am just curious what you want to do with this info (or idea); Steal it?

@Judokah.

There a a number of free SMS service provider that you can incorporate into your site. ICQ's SMS service is the most popular. Both SMSCITY is catching up too, and "yours truly" can only be proud of that. They have a "programmable" service that can be tweaked to provide online SMS feature from a third party website (your website for example). Many others exist, but virtually all limit the number of SMS's you can send daily - SMSCITY is 1/day. ICQ's SMS was 5/day the last time I checked. To use these services from your website, you will at least have to understand HTTP 1.1 GET and POST messages;

Be careful which of the free providers you select. Most offere free service in the initial stages to attract people to their site. As soon as they have sufficient popularity, they stop or modify the free services (to deal with this, try to make your SMS modules flexible so that you can quickly adapt it to another free SMS provider should your selected provider stop free service)

my thinking waz that they only offer free sms services which someone can only send via their own website.
Still, av checked on smscity but there isnt no where i read abt 3rd party there.
further explanations will be appreciated.

Re-read my post. I said to use this services, you will have to understand HTTP 1.1 POST messages.

The idea is to POST the SMS messages from your website to the smscity web handlers. In other words, u provide the web interface to SMScity on your site but redirect the the resulting message traffic to smscity: SMScity is not aware that the HTTP packets were submitted from a 3rd party webpage . Remember HTTP is a stateless protocol

That would depend on the purpose/nature of your site, and time.

PM me your website URL and your email address.
