Arun 795 Report post Posted October 6, 2008 It is a new Google Labs service which can be used to deliver messages to subscribed members in a group by SMS. The SMS can be sent by the group owner directly to the group members, automatically using RSS, blogspot.com, Google Groups (i.e., when they are updated). I wonder how they manage to support sending so many free SMSs to everyone Subscribe to RIMwebSMS group to get new topic updates at RIMweb.in! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

mobsac 0 Report post Posted October 7, 2008 Google is already facing problems with the message delivery.Seems like their messages are getting stuck at the SMSCs. These group message services are really putting an overload on the operator's SMSC infrastructure. Services like MyToday and SMS gupshup already account to about 7-8% of the total message volume sent in India.Now add the big daddy - Google to it!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
pasumark 51 Report post Posted October 7, 2008 If these types of free sms services get popular then surely we will be charged for incoming SMS as in US Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
kshah 452 Report post Posted October 7, 2008 If these types of free sms services get popular then surely we will be charged for incoming SMS as in US In India its not possible as we have CPP (call party pay) regime. US is still struggling for CPP. India is one of most successful country in CPP. Thanks to TRAI. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mobsac 0 Report post Posted October 7, 2008 Great to see DOT and TRAI getting something right. Going by what is happening around the no portability and 3G guidelines, its a complete mess. Its amazing how these guidelines have been tweaked to benefit a particular CDMA mobile operator( READ: Anil Ambani's RELIANCE). Another deal behind the deal, Mr Amar Singh??
