How can I send a text message to my AT&T cell phone from my computer? What is my “address”?
There are several online services that allow you to send text messages to cell phones from a computer, two that I am somewhat familiar with are SMS at smseverywhere.com and Cellphonemessagesender.com These can be found on the internet using a search engine like Google or Yahoo. They are easy and straightforward to use, although I don’t know how effective they are.
I assume that you are using Cingular wireless. If not, then you will need to look up the same information for your specific provider. They are basically the same. Also, verify the cost of using the service. You can quickly build up your phone bill if you don’t have the right plan. I believe they charges extra for messaging. There are a few methods for sending messages. First, you can use some of the instant messangers (AIM – AOL Instant Messanger or Yahoo Messenger). You must sign up for it at http://www.cingular.com/media/instant_messaging. Second, You can receive Email’s which you can sign up for at http://www.cingular.com/media/mobile_email. Third, text messaging through various medium. E.g. web, email, and others. You need to sign up for this too at
