Hi Paul,

Thanks for sharing this application. If you are willing Project Wonder would be a good home for this framework.

Happy New Year!

Chuck

I'd like to share the relaunch of our WebObjects/Wonder/WOLips website 'Treasuremytext' plus an invitation to try out the closed beta with the WO Community. I figured this was the best place but apologies first if anyone finds it a bit off topic.

A quick background to this. Treasuremytext is a simple SMS text message storage service. This new version is an attempt to bring it bang up to date using all the recent developments in WebObjects. During its redevelopment WOLips, Wonder, the lists and Wiki resources have all played a big role and proven invaluable. A huge amount of thanks to everyone here and in the community for keeping WebObjects alive and kicking and providing so many great resources and tools.

Our main objective with this relaunch was to enhance the site using using modern web development techniques. Ajax, drag n drop, betas, invites, colourful gradients & reflections are all features of the site bringing it into a modern Web 2.0 era. We're really happy with the results and we hope this is a great showcase and example of the use of WebObjects.

Currently the site is only open to invites (of course, being a web2 thing) but we've added an open invite for WebObjects people. To use it you need to do this:

1. Visit http://beta.treasuremytext.com
2. Click on 'Create Account'.
3. You'll be told to ask for an invite by email, here just use the email address 'email@hidden' to get straight in through the back door.


Two caveats for its use. We are currently operating on a Dutch mobile GSM number so if your in the US it will only work with ATT and T-Mobile. The second if your on an iPhone you'll have to look around for a thing called SMSD for forwarding messages, this is a stopgap until the iPhone SDK becomes available after which we plan to do something much more integrated.

Regards the SMS integration if anyone else needs such a thing, I've implemented this in a framework using the Logica OpenSMPP Java library. I'd be happy to share after cleaning it up if anyone has any use for such a thing. It's only useful if you have an SMPP Gateway provider to integrate with but these are simple to get. You can do lots of fun stuff with SMS!
