What happens when SMS gatewayes comes with a HTTP/S API? It just begs to be creatively used, doesn't it?
Some productive late night hacking have produced a little shell script that sends SMS messages using Clickatell SMS Gateway HTTP/S API.
The first cool application is the automation of sending vCal events from our Plone site to cell phones as vCal SMS that the user can add to the built-in calendar of their phones by simply saying 'YES'.
>>> python clickatell.py -v --vcal="http://www.arstascouterna.org/arstascouterna/arrangemang-och-laeger/2008/sjoescoutdagen-2008/vcs_view" 0739978733
Stay tuned, this is going to be interesting.
