Hi all I've been asked to create a fairly simple sms messaging program that will alert clients' mobile phones when particular circumstances occur. Having absolutely no previous experience programming such apps I have been googling for info to help me. I found developershome.com/sms/ quite useful for gaining a beginner's insight, and at first glance setting up an app to use sms over http or https seems relatively trivial. My questions, then. to those with experience are: am I wrong? are there pitfalls I should be considering? are there reasons why another protocol should be used? do you know a good source of information . . . . ? Thanks for any help you can provide.
