Pingie brings TUAW's WWDC coverage to your phone
Today marks the official start of WWDC, and we at TUAW plan to cover the heck out of it. As always you can check out all of our coverage at our WWDC 2008 page, via our RSS feed, or by following us on Twitter (assuming Twitter stays up during the keynote).I know what you're thinking: why can't TUAW send the most important news from WWDC right to my phone? Thanks to Pingie, we can! Head on over to TUAW's Pingie page to enter your phone number and we'll send you news throughout the week directly to your phone.
You can also subscribe to TUAW's Pingie posts simply by texting 'ping tuaw' to 95495 and if you're had enough of our ramblings you can stop the notifications by texting 'ping stop' to the same number.

Hey, thanks for this! My mom needs me to attend a funeral of a relative I don't know, and I'll be gone all day, and was despairing, they will save me life. Thanks!

If you don't think the service will meet your expectations, then don't use it. Simple as that. The ongoing drive-by bashing is starting to help me filter what will stay and go in my newsreader over time.

I wanted to say thanks for the pingie offer. I will be away from my computer all day today so any news to my mobile will be helpful and most appreciated.
LOL. 1Password has done a lot for the unintentional humor level of our comments...

Hope everyone enjoys!
So, subscribing to Pingie by text... is this for anyone, in any country, on any mobile phone network?
Or perhaps you've forgotten there is a world outside the US.
Australia is waiting.....
All night
