I was going through my “starred” emails and I noticed that one of my readers had requested that I add Boost Mobile to my text messaging form. Well, I’m late in getting to it, but as of today, you can now send texts to Boost Mobile subscribers via my online form.

Additionally, I’m rather intrigued by Boost Mobile’s text messaging specs. Their service allows for 500 character text messages. What’s more, you can add a replies section to your texts that allows recipients to reply to a list of options you provide.

Today I noticed a cool use of my online text messaging form. A San Antonio Craigslist user known as Wade is selling his 1994 Acura Legend and 1998 Nissan Maxima. As a part of his contact details, he has a link to my form that will allow interested buyers to send him a text message for more information about either car.

Soon you’ll be able to send SMS text messages from Gmail chat. I for one am really looking forward to this feature. Plus, for users of my online text messaging form, this feature may be what gets them started using Gmail.

P.S. If you’re a fan of my text messaging form, don’t worry. I will continue to keep it available on my site.

My online text messaging form continues to be one of the most popular “hidden features” of this site. As of this post, visitors to my site have sent 36046 text messages since it first debuted on January 16th of this year. That comes out to 5149 texts per month, or around 171 per day.

Additionally, I continue to add new wireless providers as requested by users. Just last night I added Metro PCS. Is there a provider you would like to see, or do you have a story to share about how you use my form? I’d love to hear from you.

This past week, I received requests for three new wireless networks to be added to my online text messaging form. After some initial testing, I’m happy to announce that my text messaging form now supports:

• nTelos Text Messaging
• Right Wireless Text Messaging
• and West Central Wireless Text Messaging

The popularity of this form continues to rise as visitors to this site typically send around 250 text messages a day. If you haven’t checked it out yet, let me encourage you to as it is a quick and easy way to send text messages to cell phones.
