If you're new here, you may want to subscribe to my RSS feed. Thanks for visiting!

We love our RSS feeds, but ZapTXT takes your normal everyday RSS feed and makes it more powerful.  Say for instance you want to get daily weather on your phone without paying for a service through your carrier, all you do is take the weather website’s RSS feed and have updates sent to your mobile device via text.  But wait theres more!  Want to get twitter or MySpace updates on your phone?  Or maybe you want your Google Calendar alerts to show up on your mobile phone?  You can do that too!  All kidding aside ZapTXT simply parses out a regular RSS feed and texts it out to your phone.

    How much does it cost? Is it free? Do they spam you?

    While convenient, I’d prefer reading RSS feeds from my feed reader in my computer than on my phone.

    I agree, I mean you read the rss feed and to see more info you’d click the link. Not only is it slower, it’s a smaller screen and I don’t know about the rest of the world but mobile download usage is expensive.

    Wow what a great idea. I can’t be at my computer all the time, so getting stuff in text message form would be very helpful. thanks for sharing this

    Agreed with Jason Pearson! Having this at the convenience of my blackberry could save a lot of time rather than always pulling out the laptop when on the go. I got to try this out. Thanks for the useful post.

Got something to say?
