Today I gave my talk at MobileCampNYC, called Poor Man's SMS Gateway. The goal behind the talk was to demystify the "magic" behind SMS applications. I basically showed how anyone can create a very simple SMS gateway with nothing more than a mobile and a computer.
I figure that the more people start utilizing these types of technologies, the more innovation and creativity will eventually emerge out of the mobile space. Moreover, as the general population begins to become more aware of what can be done today with simple technologies as SMS, the more receptive they'll become to new services and applications created by the new class of mobile startups.
The code will be released open sourced with detailed instructions on how to get it installed in minutes. I may even do a video for it.
Stay tuned...
