I've been a Plurker and Twitter user for about a year now, and losing Karma Points in Plurk might be the very heartbreaking news you'll ever get from Plurk. Tweeting on the other hand, is a must, updating my followers to check out my new posts.
In desperation for Karma Point, I became a frequent user of Phplurk's gateway just to update my daily activities even though i'm afar from keyboard (AFK). Just by texting to a Phplurk's associate gateway mobile number, one for Globe, and one for Smart, you can already update.
Later on, Phplurk became a major diversion for plurking in most of the Filipino Plurkers, since it is only locally available. Meanwhile, Tweeting has been casual in most of the mobile phones with browser.
After quite some time, Phplurk had been experiencing frequent delay of Plurk posts. After these delays, Plurks won't arrive in the user's dashboard anymore. That was the time when Phplurk gradually lost it's essence.
In solution to this, and for Karma's sake, a new Plurk gateway had been create. Make way for gladlyCast and their services for Plurkers and Twitters. gladlyCast provides Plurk and Twitter gateways for SMS. Just like Phplurk, you are required to sign up and test a certain procedure to complete the registration.
gladlyCast's features:
- Available for 3 countries, Philippines, Singapore, and Malaysia. Each country has a unique gateway number
- Local SMS cost/charge for each Plurk or Twitter update
- You can type in different language based on your phone's specification
- Unlike Phplurk, gladlyCast don't promote their url in every Plurk made through the gateway
- Very easy registration process
Oh yeah! How does it feel? Your KARMA POINTS won't drop anymore, if you constantly send SMS through this gateway! Impressive.
Be sure to follow them on Plurk, and on Twitter to receive the latest updates on their service.
