Will wonders never cease?

Two maxims: it can't be all that difficult, and you can research it on the Web. I put them to the test - let's say you wanted to allow people to vote by using text messaging from a cell phone. After all, they do it at football games. The "jumbotron"
says if you like this one, text 123 to [some number]. How do they do that?

So I investigated (on the Web). Here's your opportunity to try it out.

The question:
This is a test. Would you use your cell phone to vote for an MIP entrant?

Four possible responses:

yes -- send a text message CAST 4643 to 41411
no -- text CAST 4644 to 41411
yes-yes-yes but how many times can I vote? -- text CAST 5261 to 41411
what's MIP? -- text CAST 5262 to 41411

So, I guess it isn't all that difficult. And you can research it on the Web. And it's free! (that's bonus #1) And ... you can view the results online (bonus #2).



What will they think of next? (p.s. - it's from www.polleverywhere.com)
