Some of My Other Message Services

Actually, soon after this initiative of SMS service to you and its success, I started with SDM_Alerts - SMS alert service for all faculty of our college (which is still being used) and a separate alert service for MBA Department and SDMite_Alerts - for all students of our college and SDMite_Alumni - For all alumni of our college (Although it still needs publicity) Hmmm,All said and done, your suggestions/opinions in this regard would help me to take many more initiatives in future in this direction.
