A question about SMS

Postby arn0ld on Mon Jun 26, 2006 9:07 pm

Ei, everyone!! I have these little questions about SMS working with computers. Ever heard about Chikka? I'm just wondering how on earth can a cellphone communicate with a computer. Can some of you guys explain this, or maybe post a link that could take me to the best site that can help me with this. I'll also probably post some follow questions if ever you guys answer. Thanks Wink

Simply, cell networks are hooked up to the world wide web, and each phone has an address on the network linked to its phone number. You can send your text message to the cell network from a computer because of this.

On a slightly related side note, a group of people once got the MAC address of their boss's pager and sent him an unceasing deluge of pages from computers.
Old Japanese proverb:
" Baka ni tsukeru kusuri wa nai"
or, more plainly
"There is no medicine that cures stupidity."
