Expanding Options for Affordable International Text Messaging
2008-05-18 22:56:00 Both calling and text messaging outside of the country can be costly. A message sent via any of the major carriers in the US can cost between 15 and 30 cents although some providers do offer package deals for heavier users.There are a number of online services that offer a savings; some costing as much as 10 cents per message although a few offer free messaging for those willing to send text messages via their computer. Services such as ipipi.com, peekamo.com, and text4free.net are just a few. Recently however, Jaxtr.com joined the ranks of free international texting services. Jaxtr states that it is a free service which allows users to call family and friends overseas for the same cost as local calls. In addition, they recently announced that users of the service can text message through their website to over 155 countries for free. If messaging overseas is of interest, check out this International Text Messaging webpage.

AMAZON DIALS UP TEXT-MESSAGING SHOPPING SERVICE
2008-04-02 16:57:00 Amazon.com unveiled a new text-messing shopping service for mobile users on Wednesday, adding a mainstream player to the mix of companies that offer shopping to-go. Amazon TextBuyIt is designed to let mobile users shop, compare prices and purchase products from Amazon.com. Shoppers send a text message to "Amazon" with the product name, search term, UPC or ISBN code. The ecommerce giant will offer up matching products, as well as prices. Buyers can purchase products by replying to the text message and punching in a single digit number next to the desired item. Amazon will then call users to confirm their order. Amazon, however, is not alone in offering a mobile shopping service. mShopper, for example, launched in 2007, allowing users to shop and buy products from their mobile devices. The difference, however, is Amazon is a pioneer in the ecommerce space for consumer products and its category line up is vast.

More Text Messaging Help
2008-03-02 21:28:00 With my post last week about some new unlimited text messaging plans coming out from cellular providers I received a handful of questions of a more general nature. The main one of course, was other suggestions for saving on text messaging for those who are less frequent users. There are of course services offered through Google, Yahoo, and AOL as well as an army of other online services such as textmessage.cc and onlinetextmessage.com which allow a cheaper route. Generally there is free texting for the sender but not for the receiver, while other services may simply require that the user listen to paid advertisements. The other questions related to cheaper services for international texting. i-text.it and sendSMSnow.com are two services that give individuals the ability to text internationally with most charges again going to the receiver of the message; thus cutting the overall total charges.For more information, links, and other text messaging help for begi...

Cell Phones: Text Messaging as a Second Language
2008-02-18 15:51:00 Recent news stories have reported a phenomenon that most knew existed: there is a gap in the use of text messaging between younger and older cell phone owners. Reports vary but indications are those 12 to 30 years of age account for 80% of text messaging usage.Because of the instantaneous nature of texting and the tiny keypads and screens on a cell phone, an entire language has developed around text messaging. For those cell phone owners who do not make use of text messaging, the intricacies of this language can make messages almost incomprehensible. This language is abbreviated for speed and ease of use. It is a rather phonetic language where single letters or numbers may stand for entire words, such as "Y" for "why" or "8" for "ate". Vowels may be omitted to further reduce keystrokes, such as "btwn" for "between" and capitalization and punctuation are rare. Acronyms are used for phrases and whole sentences such as "ADBB" for "all done, bye, bye". Symbols are also common in text me...

Text Messaging Turns 15
2007-12-06 01:03:00 By: Chris Brubaker Happy Birthday text messaging. It's been 15 years now since the first text message was sent. In December 1992, a company called Airwide Solutions had one of its employees send the very first text message which read "Merry Christmas". Few realized what the new technology would offer, yet as the technology expanded text messaging would grow for the next 15 years at astounding rates. In 1995, three years after the first text message was sent consumers that had access to text messaging were sending texts at a rate of .4 texts per user per month. Jump five years later in 2000, that number ballooned to 35 text's sent per user per month a total of about 12 Million text sent every month. Current statistics put text messaging as of December 2006 at 18 Billion text messages sent every month in the US alone. The affordability and compatibility text messaging offers across all carriers helps explain this incredible growth and accept...

Mktg w/ txt Msg (Marketing with Text Messaging)
2007-11-28 00:55:00 By: Chris Brubaker 18.7 Billion text messages were sent in December last year, up 92% from 2005. That number is big enough to catch anyone's attention, particularly advertisers. As text messaging grows by leaps and bounds each year text messaging as an advertising medium will grow with it. One company capitalizing on SMS marketing is Subway restaurants. Stores located in Buffalo, NY and Seattle, WA have started using text messaging as a viable form of marketing. The stores are reporting an 8.5 percent response rate from the text messages, as opposed to their coupon inserts which return a 1 to 2 percent response rate. So what's the difference? Consumers have to "opt in" to the program in order to start receiving promotions, meaning the customers that do sign up are more interested and involved in Subway and therefore more likely to follow through with a promotion. Text messaging also provides advertisers with a more direct way ...
