OT: a bit related to motion/ Free SMS

Postby g8jvm » Tue Apr 30, 2013 1:45 pm

Hi Guys,

Does anyone know of a free site where sending an e-mail to or uploading will result in a SMS message being sent.

There use to be sites where you could type in a SMS ( text to a mobile fone) and it would get sent to that number.
But they all seemed to have disappeared :(.
I would like when I go on vacation to the US later to be able to send a text to my cell fone to tell me something has trigger motion.
I see there is a line in motion.conf that could be used when triggered.
While on vacation I will have a US number, so looking for a site in the US to send from and one in the UK would be nice.
And in true linux tradition Free to use.

Or have these sites become history

Sorry for the OT , but more like to find some who knows here than anywhere else IMO
Thanks
Richard
Best wishes
Richard

Also if you have a google voice account you could send messages there. It will forward to your cell or email.
