I want to put ringtones on my phone from my computer but I don’t have a usb cord and I don’t want to go through that process. How can I send music from my computer to phone through a text message or something? I am in the UK so everything has to work with our networks.
Some websites do send music etc to your phone via text messaging but this service costs a bomb! If you’ve got WAP/GPRS (i.e. the mobile internet) on your phone, I suggest that you do what I did before I got my new phone. Just download what you want to your computer and then upload them to a free website. NB. These websites have a limit on the size of the file that you can download, so try not to upload anything too big (a common site is something like 200KB).
The websites I use for this are:
www.esato.com
You have to register to use this service but it’s free.
www.cbfmobile.com
Simple and easy to use.
Another thing you might want to do is get a friend with a computer cable to download what you want and send it to you either as a picture message or via infra red, if your phone has it (look for squares on the top, bottom or side of your phone-make sure that the square on your friend’s phone and yours are very close together and your infra red reception is activated. otherwise, it won’t work).
Hope this works!

It’s funny we can hardly keep up with technology, let alone the language that comes with it … desktop computers, laptops, smartphones, PDAs, mobile phones, push to talk phones … just to name a few. All of these instruments have one common tread – communicating with love ones and friends using text messaging.
Have you ever gotten a message or email you didn’t understand and you were left scratching your head? What does that mean? Better yet, you are forced to ask your kids what it means.
So go ahead, glean the pages ahead, you will get an idea what your kids and friends are trying to tell you so you won’t be ….. “Lost In A text message,”
(more…)

i heard E-911 systems can send a text message to emergency responders cell phones with details of call, location and type of call, also used as like a notification saying you have a call. i heard fire departments/countys have that for there fire departments. and ems squads
I’m not sure what your question is.
You cannot send a 911 center text messages. They are not equipped to recieve text messages from 911 callers yet.
Firemen use special pagers that recieve info from the 911 center, but it is nothing like text messaging.

SMS technology is not only a mobile phone feature. It is on the World Wide Web too and it’s available for free. It is great way to connect and stay connected with people.
The Web is such an effective tool because nearly anybody of all ages now knows how to use the internet. One can shop, bank, pay bills, play games, promote, call, chat, email and a lot more.
It is not surprising that so many people around the globe are passionate into surfing online and spend literally the whole day sitting in front of the PC. But few individuals, may be neophytes, aren’t well aware that one can actually send messages from a regular computer to a mobile phone subscribed to any network.
That’s right, almost everything is possible now. And, aside from text messages being sent via PC to mobile phone, sending text messages from a computer to landline telephone and forwarding ring tones from a computer to cell phone, is feasible too.
Without doubt, the SMS technology offers an entirely different way of communicating with the world. Conveying a few words such as “what have you been up to?” or “hi, there!” with your circle of friends, family and relatives is easier and more convenient. You can remain connected with people at all times with SMS.
May be you are an accountant busy with your QuickBooks and face your PC the entire day at the office. Your hubby is a geodetic engineer assigned in a Southern African site. Texting him to say something endearing from your PC with Internet connection is fairly easy and simple. Or are you full time homemaker and rely on your spouse for your finances?
At last you are all set for the opening of your gift and boutique shop downtown. You need to invite friends and relatives but you don’t have a lot of time for formal invitations. Access your computer and type in a quick note inviting each one you wish to come to your shop launching. If you have a group messaging feature, you just have to key in your message and hit send only once. Supply the mobile numbers in and put your contacts in a group. Your invites can then email you or text you back.
Select a website that offers such feature. Follow the process of signing up. You can now send SMS to any cell phone number you choose. Your message will be received by your recipient right away (in less than 5 seconds after you click “send”). This service operates just like the process of a mobile phone-to-mobile phone text messaging. It is readily on hand at your fingertips and it is free. Registration and texting is normally provided free by commercial websites.
Like a mobile phone, there is also bulk texting using the personal computer. This is very helpful in sending out the same message to a lot of numbers in your contact. Rather than typing the same message repeatedly, you just need to compose it one time, input all the numbers of the people you want to include in the recipient list, and in just one click, the message is sent to all of them instantly. These are all in real time.
Texting technology really changed the way of communication in the modern world. It is just important to bear in mind always to use this technology responsibly.

So i have sent an sms message to a friend but i want to know if his t-mobile carrier charges extra for sms messages even though he has unlimited text messaging.
SMS messages and text messages are the same thing. It is just named differently. T-mobile charges 20 cents per text without a messaging plan. Your friend has no reason to worry. He has unlimited text messaging. He is safe & good to go.

Text messaging to students at Virginia Tech would have been a better way to notify students of the horrors happening on campus.
The horrors of what happened in Blacksburg, Virginia on April 16 are now starting to come forward with chilling details. A great university is in mourning and a very safe city is starting to wonder if anywhere in the world is still safe.
As always seems to be the case in unprecedented situations, criticism is directed at public safety entities and the university’s administrative leaders in what each could have done differently to help prevent or lessen this terrible tragedy.
Some of that criticism concerns the notification process of the student population at Virginia Tech. According to The Associated Press, while the first shooting was reported at 7:15 am, the first notification of students in Blacksburg was sent at 9:26 am by email. The horrific second shooting in Norris Hall occurred at 9:45 am and email notification was sent at 10:53 am.
Several reports concerned the difficulty in notifying students and teachers who were commuting to the campus during the morning hours. Certainly, email was not going to help these folks as they drove into the disaster.
Today, at work, our staff received a series of calls from public schools, private schools, community colleges, and universities who had been hastily assigned the task of finding a better solution for notification of students and parents should an unthinkable similar disaster occur at another school. That solution is text messaging–the quickest and most prevalent medium used by students today.
The sales team at the company discussed the early morning calls that were received in each of the three branch offices of the company in Philadelphia, Chicago, and St. Louis. Obviously, there was an interest in our text message alert product. The debate, however, was whether the company should promote that product given the possibility that it might be interpreted that the company was taking advantage of a terrible tragedy for monetary gain. Certainly, that is not the object of this article.
After much debate, it was decided that if the product the company offers was able to save a life, then the company welcomes any such profiteering criticism that might come the company’s way.
Certainly, based on the phone calls received at the office, and the reports on local radio news information station KYW, this tragedy has started several forward-looking academic institutions to analyze the way it sends timely messages to students. According to Philadelphia news station KYW’s story, “Local Campuses Re-Evaluate Security Procedures,” several regional universities are looking at how they would respond to a similar emergency.
KYW’s Paul Kurz said: “Temple might be able to learn something from the events at Virginia Tech, including how to better communicate with students in times of emergency.” Kurz went on to discuss the emergency response procedures in place in nearby West Chester–home of West Chester University.
The fact is that 84% of all Americans now have their cell phone on 24 hours a day and that cell phone is never more than a few feet from them. So, no matter where the students or university staff might be, the emergency message would reach them immediately. This is simply not the case with email.
Schools and universities need to keep a cell phone database, including carrier, of everybody associated with their institutions for emergency situations and be prepared to send text message blasts in emergency situations. It may be a life saver.
