Texting software

My dad wants to be able to type up text messages on his computer and send it out to multiple employees?
Anyone know of decent software, preferrably free?

Email… :wink:

gmail

.

like what campus’ use to alert all students when there is a pyschopathic killer shooting guns ?

what if they don’t have e-mail on their phones?

Edit: To clarify he wants to type text messages on his computer and send them to his employees phones

email: 1234567890@vtext.com

Cant he just type out a text, and then FWD it to a group of employees?

So that is for verizon?
What if he doesn’t know what company the cell phone is?

each company does something like that, they may have to create an account first.

download AIM, add peoples cell phones i.e. +17165550000 make a group and message the whole group? I think Gmail also has an option to mail phones.

Can’t figure out G-mail anyone have a link to instructions.
AIM appears to only let you send to one person at a time, any suggestions.

Thanks for the suggestions keep them coming

boxxa had something up a while back that allowed you to type on your pc and text through your phone. PM him and ask, than let me know lol

Yeah I saw that and tried it and could not see where the options says SMS
Plus it appears that would be one at a time as well

Thanks for the link

x2 on the aim.

My private company that has people on call just has an email address alert@company.com with all the individual numbers in it. The email can only be reached by certain users so not anyone can sent out a message but when you send an email from my email to alert@company.com, it sends it to everyone on the list.

omgz distribution lists!!! :mamoru:
