I have been considering this, but sms gateways are more expensive then I can afford (I haven't found a good free one).
So I have been considering sending via a mobile phone or GSM/GPRS modem for now since I wouldn't have to scale it up very high for now:

- e1ven 19y agoOne thing you can do is to send it through a phone directly, but that limits you to ~6 messages/minute.. That's not going to support a very large user base ;) Gateways, such as http://www.bulksms.com/ http://www.bulksms.com/ generally charge $.05c/message, which is insanely high. Difficult to make money at those prices.
