While researching SMS alert systems for a client I came across Clickatell.

For the past few months I’ve been enjoying the flow of Facebook and Match alerts when people wink, poke or send email. There are enough alerts throughout the day to be interesting without feeling like they are interfering too much. I wonder how many men as opposed to women use mobile alerts?
