Some time ago I went down the path of building a simple sms gateway. At the time I wrote a basic blog entry but received numerous requests for a more detailed "how-to"... so here it is.
I based my solution around a basic linux (Ubuntu) server - the machine itself is nothing fancy but is more than capable of handling the sort of load it's getting. The device being used to send/receive SMS messages is an "old" Nokia mobile phone that I have since retired from use as a handset.
The specs of all components I used are listed below - all up you should be able to purchase these items for less than $50 (or you may have the majority of them lying around).
Ajax (Asynchronous Javascript and Xml) has become a very popular tool in web design. This tutorial will teach you how to make an ajax contact form using PHP and Jquery. See the code in action here.
Once all this has executed we will display a thank you message. using some of the information we have collected.
Step 1 – The HTML
To start things off lets create a new file and call it contact.html, inside it we want to create a simple html form, like so:Now we have a standard contact form which will submit to mail.php
Step 2 – The PHP
Now we want to create a php file called mail.php this will handle the results of our form.//declare our variables
$name = $_GET['name'];
$email = $_GET['email'];
$comment = $_GET['comment'];
//get todays date
$todayis = date("l, F j, Y, g:i a") ;
//set a title for the message
$subject = "A message";
$message = " Message: $comment \r \n From: $name \r \n Reply to: $email";
//put your email address here
mail("email@address.com", $subject, $message);
?>
Thank you
Your message will be answered as soon as possible.

In this page we create some variables, which gather the name, email and message from the form, then using the php mail() function it will send this to the email address specified. for the sake of this tutorial i have used email@example.com, but you can use whatever you like.Once all this has executed we will display a thank you message. using some of the information we have collected.
Adam is a Facebook Engineer, so using WP-FacebookConnect can be a good place to start. The plugin adds Facebook functionality to Wordpress using the Facebook Connect APIs.

One of the most demanded features for Twitter has been the ability to create groups, allowing members to focus on different sets of people they’re following. For example, you could create groups for all of your fantasy league friends, colleagues at work, friends in real life, family members, and so on.
Because Twitter still does not provide any group feature, it has opened the floodgates for countless third party solutions. There are many different ways Twitter members can create virtual groups. Here is a roundup of some of the most popular methods employed today.
