Wikipedia for cell phones

Saturday, September 22nd, 2007

GoLive! Mobile has announced that it will be allowing cell phone users free access to their new service: Mobile Wikipedia. The mobile marketing company has developed the Text-2-WAP technology to show the uses of their text messaging combined with mobile web technologies.

All a cell-phone user has to do is send a text message to a 5 number code with the first word “ABOUT”. For Example: “ABOUT PORTLAND”. The Text-2-Wap technology of the mobile marketing company will then gather information from Wikipedia.

To use this free service, send a text message to the number 23907 with the message: “ABOUT PORTLAND” for example. GoLive! Mobile’s technology will create a web page for you. Next, that web pages address is sent to the cell-phone user’s phone through a text message.

It is free to use, just remember that you need a phone that’s browser-enabled and that you may be charged for the text message if it is not included in your plan.

They also have an RSS feed reader for mobile phones, just send “NEWS PORTLAND” to the same number.

Try it out today.

Creating a brand

Saturday, September 22nd, 2007

Signage and branding is one of the most important aspects to growing your business. Most small businesses do not pay enough attention or money to this. Establishing your brand and enforcing your company through advertising can be a major influence to constant growth.

Take, for example, the real estate business. Each home must be brought to the immediate attention of prospective buyers. The more potential buyers there are, the higher the income on the sale. Signage is the most important part of this. Banners, real estate signs, and information boxes are the key to a successful marketing campaign. Look to your sign company to enable you to create and design your own advertising.

Keep advertising, signage and branding in mind in all that you do, and your company will see smoother and constant growth.
