Dr.Gagan 17 Report post Posted October 14, 2006 Deepak Sharma went on record with the Guinness Book for having sent the most SMS messages in a single month: 182,689. We’re not sure if that’s total, or unique messages, but if you’d like us to break that down for you, that’s about 6,100 messages a day, 253 an hour, 4.2 a minute, or a new one every 14 seconds or so.” reports Engadget WebIndia 123 reported that “Deepak Sharma aims to increase the number to 3,00,000 in the coming month. Sharma received a bill of 1411 pages this month, which was sent specially to him by Airtel. He is making the best out of Airtel’s scheme of unlimited SMS with 99 paise.” Airtel is one of India’s top mobile operators. They would never have thought this Ludhiana man would have used their unlimited SMS mobile scheme to set a world record. Maybe Airtel is thinking of closing this mobile phone SMS payment plan soon! read the story on http://www.quickonlinetips.com/archives/20...ile-phone-plan/ Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Arun 795 Report post Posted October 15, 2006 Edit: That news is dated: May 12th, 2005 thanks for the headsup Imran... yeah, its old news... But the following news is defenitely very recent and more staggering ! Deepak Sharma sends six lakh SMSes in month Express News Service Ludhiana, September 30, 2006 Says he and his wife remained busy sending messages from dawn to dusk, to stake claim for world record; ignored irritation of friends City resident, Deepak Sharma has made a record of sending more than six lakh text messages (SMS) in the span of one month. Feeling overjoyed he claimed, "I am the first person in the world to send so many text messages (SMS) in one month. Now I will send my claim to Guiness Book of Records." Before claiming the record, Deepak said he had already checked up Guiness Book of Records as well as Limca Book of Records and found that he had broken the record of another Indian for sending five lakh text messages in a month. He said, "I sent 6,38,431 text messages in one month, from July 26 to August 25 under Unlimited SMS Scheme of Airtel and company gave me the discount of Rs 1,278,120." Deepka runs a shop of mobile phones in Haibowal. He said, "My wife Shiwani also helped me a lot in sending these text messages. From dawn to dusk we kept sending text messages to friends, relatives and our customers. We also sent messages like 'send this SMS to nine people, otherwise you will be unlucky for some months'. Some of my friends used to feel irritated over such messages, but I just ignored their reaction and just remained focused on my aim of achieving the target of maximum text messages in the world in one month's time."

ctrl_alt_del 0 Report post Posted October 15, 2006 Thanks God, I am s relieved that I don't know this guy. Dont want to be on the receiving end of his SMS Tsunami! Thats the problem with people. They fail to realize how much a nuisance can there "forward to 10 ppl for good luck" messages can be, record or no record. Such people ought to have their cell phones confiscated. If he is so desperate to create a record, why the hell cant get get another 5 cells and keep sending messages to them without having to bother unsuspecting friends and relatives. I will be surprised if he has any friend left to celebrate his record with! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
