Online Texting v SPAM

The words online texting and SPAM really should not be spoken in the same sentence. However, while stumbling I found this article relating to SMS messaging being received when it is unwanted. It points the finger at Verizon and informs the reader how to opt out of receiving spammy SMS messaging.

At LookNoThumbs.com, a new online texting service, there is a policy where any of its users who are found to be SPAMMING will be removed from the service - immediately.

At this cool web-site, you can use online texting services functions to protect your privacy but still get those updates that are important or valuable to you. Their “Alerts and Subscriptions” service is where the sender creates an Alert with informative and useful messages and users then Subscribe anonymously to the Alert to receive the latest update when it becomes available from the sender. If the recipient gets tired of the updates it is a simple case of unsubscribing from that Alert. No questions asked.

For example, let’s say your favourite store has an alert published in LookNoThumbs.com. As a regular there you don’t want to miss their annual pre-Christmas sale. So you subscribe to their “Pre-Christmas Sale Alert” and when they send it out you immediately receive the text message informing you of the date and time of the sale. You are then first in line to snap up that last minute bargain - along with the other subscribers!

Online texting, and SMS messaging in general, is booming and many important, and fun, uses have been developed for this technology. Maybe the big communications corporates are selling out their users already but LookNoThumbs.com is providing an alternative, allowing privacy to be retained without losing out on new updates. Let’s keep the SPAMMERS out of online texting and SMS messaging alogether.
