Male: All right, anybody know what SMS stands for?
Audience: Super Moxy--
Male: Show magical stuff. That is what it means, show magical stuff. All right. That is short message service or something like that. I prefer my own idea, show magical stuff. Because by the time you are done you are going to be amazed at the magical stuff, you can get right out of your phone. Okay. You send a text message to Google, remember I said that if you want to send a text message you have to know the phone number of the person at the other end. All of the five digit numbers notice that everybody’s phone numbers is a ten digit number. All the five digit numbers are reserved for companies. What number do you think Google got? G-O-O-G-L why? Because they are that cool.
[Laughing]
Male: All right. Who is cooler than Google? Me, 617 Patrick all right? That is pretty cool, but Google got GOOGL so if you send the text message to G-O-O-G-L using those first five numbers, which are 46645. The message that you send the text message that you send will be send at Google. They have millions of kids; teenage kids sitting there with cell phones taking your call figuring out what you want sending information back to you or while they are at school.
[Laughing]
Male: Okay. They are productive. They are useful and they are free, okay. Big thing, they are free. What text message could you send to Google if you send them this message and I have color coded it red and your handouts are not.
Audience: In there.
Male: God bless you. God bless you. That is cool. All right, all right cool. All right, so we got color coded in it. By the way, if you want copies of any of these if you send me an email I will send you an email with all of the stuff. It is all copyrighted, but you know it is not really copy right but that is just what I put on the bottom you know. I just write copyright at the bottom because lawyers are not free so I forget to put that, but if anybody wants copy of any this obviously let me know. All right if you send this red message and you do not send it in red you just say Casey Boston Mass, Casey is the name of a restaurant and I chose it basically because it is quick to type, but if you send the message Casey Boston Mass to Google. Google will send the send the message back to you anywhere from 15 seconds later to a minute later and the message will look like what you see in blue here local listings just like you will get 411 information. Casey shabu-shabu restaurant not to be confuse with Matsu Saga, all right. It is a Japanese restaurant a 41 Esseck Street in Boston 02111 and it will give you the phone number, boom there is your 411 information not quick but it is better than that. If you are reading your text message and you see that and you press the send button, most phones are smart. Most phones will realize that the message has a phone number in it and it allow you to that number to press that number. So if you put it Casey Boston Mass and you get this number back, boom and a couple of pushes you are dialing the phone number for Casey. Free quick and now it is one of your last out going messages so it saved at least for a little while and you could save it for longer than that if you want. Pretty cool and very free. Some great questions?
Audience: How much does it cost?
[Laughing]
Audience: On your black berry. Where is that?
Male: I do not know. There are easiest ways to do this on a black berry because you have to have web access with the black berry so I do not know, like I said we can not get an individual because everybody get a different I do not know how black berry work.
Audience: Like instant things instead of that.
Male: Yes, it is unbelievably those kids are quick. Unbelievably quick all right. They are in high tech sweat shops kids giving you the answers. They comeback in a matter or seconds, minute, sometimes or two minutes is what will it take, but usually it is very quick. With many phones if it send ones or twice while reading the message, like I said it will dial the number for you. If you do not have text messaging, you will want to get it by the time I am done. It is 5 bucks a month for 500 messages you get charge for the messages going out and the message going in it is 10 cents a piece. If you do not have text messaging in your phone you can get free 411 information by calling anybody know?
Audience: 1-800-3411.
Male; There it is. 1-800-3411. In the spirit of America it is free, but.
Audience: Listen to commercial.
Male: You got to listen to a commercial okay, actually you do not. They are going play it. You decide whether not or you want to listen to it, but they will give you the phone number so you call 1-800-3411 you say; bring the phone call. You say: I want the phone number for Casey Boston Mass okay. They will not only give you the phone number, but so you do not have to take your phone on the highway and the press the whole number in. You can press the number and say that you want a text message to be sent to your phone. You then look at that message again, hit the send key couple of times usually depends on your phone and you could dial the number. You could do that on the highway in just a couple of clicks. Pretty cool. See you do not have text messaging this will get you by until you do get text messaging.
