Sending Text Messages From A Website.

May 31, 2008 · Filed Under Tech 

It had been a long time since I have been curious with how certain technology works. Tonight I discovered simple tricks of how to send text messages from websites and how to send emails through text messaging. It all works with SMS Gateways, which are paths or “doors” that enable the transferring of text messages. Through these we can send E-mails to certain addresses and that would forward it to as a text message to the appropriate phone number. With this known, it is very easy to set up a web form that would enable you to send information to users through their phone numbers through emails.

In the same way it is possible to send a text message to certain numbers and that would forward it to an email address. In case you don’t have email on your phone (like me with my blackberry) you could just text that phone number and add the details and all the sudden you could send emails from your phone. It is simple and useful if you use it right. check the list provided in Wikipedia and Google for other SMS Gateways in case those don’t work for you or you are looking for a more specific less known cell phone carrier.
