Once again, I came across another interesting use of SMS messaging. Now that cell phones are beyond mainstream, they’re starting to be looked as a great resource for notifying the masses of emergency situations like tsunamis, earthquakes, tidal waves and wildfires.
SMS text messaging is a cost-effective way to deploy messages to the masses—a great resource for governments, schools, universities and communities. For example, in the case of natural emergencies, SMS text messages can be sent to people to inform them of just about anything—what’s going on, what’s being done to help and how to evacuate properly.
Furthermore, SMS can be used to notify local officials and emergency response teams of situations as well. Just another interesting use of SMS text messaging technology, and the various ways in which it can be used.
