i've used this service and i think it's great! I'm a huge google voice sms user and I hated the fact that i couldn't get PUSH notifications when new messages would come in. Notifo solved the problem and it works great. Yes there were other options like boxcar but that required me to leave my computer on all day while Notifo didnt. BIG PLUS!
Only downside is whenever i try to open the app on my ipod
touch - it always crashes - even when installing the new update. But it's not a huge issue because i still get notifications coming in.

- frossie 16y agoInteresting service. I was thinking the other day, what I want is geolocation push notifications to my iPhone. For a trivial example, I have been meaning to ask my coffee shop if I could have some of their empty ice cream tubs. Every day I pull up at their drive through caffeine-deprived, pick up my coffee... and forget to ask. Sure would be great if, while I was sitting there waiting for my drink, my phone blipped "Ask them about the damn tubs already" :-)
- Splines 16y agoYou could probably roll your own, using IP geolocation on a push email server. The hard part is setting up the notification in the first place. You might be able to wire up something to Google Maps that lets you put pins down that can be queried by your server. Or something like that, anyway. Sounds like a neat idea :)
