Example of well done system status notices to customers

OK. Twitter is VoIPo's choice - VoIPo doesn't have to login to a web site to update status. That's convenient!
The conversation above not withstanding.

PS: SMS is not Twitter. RSS reading is integral to most browsers now.

If you get a Tweet, it can SMS you. Many people have it set up this way, in case your phone does not have Twitter capability. If VOIPo posts a tweet, people who have their Twitter set up to receive SMS copies will get the message.

That might actually be a decent solution for people who can't get twitter at work. At least an SMS text message would be sent. I suppose the next debate will be about people who don't have text plans and all of that. What VOIPo needs is something easy for them, and easy for customers. Most people are clueless about RSS.

We still have to login to the Twitter site to post updates.

As far as SMS..... Like Scott said in his post, we're referring to the fact that Twitter will automatically send an SMS to users when we post something there so they can get instant notifications on their cell phone each time there's an issue.
