As a doctor, what I’m predicting now is a rise of repetitive stress injury of the thumb, the so-called “Blackberry thumb.” You’re going to stress your thumbs just clicking on the ads…

Quite a sweet deal, for those who do not mind having advertisements for load.

I’m totally locked with Globe. Almost all my contacts are Globe subscribers so, I guess I won’t experience a free load.

Wish Globe could think of something to bring free load to us. Yay!

We do the reverse strategy for our site… you are rewarded points for various activities such as inviting friends and participating in discussions, which can be used to send SMS messages or alerts.

This spells more good news for the subscribers. Free load for “minor” annoyance. I just wonder how much more they’ll charge the advertisers for this service.

Some Samsung phones have this feature where you provide it with phone numbers and all text messages coming from those numbers will be deleted as they’re received. Your phone won’t even play it’s message tone!

@P365D:

If they have replaced the sms editor with the one that will show the ads, subscribers will have no choice but to see the ads everytime.

Ahh the sweet price of free loads…Anyway for some “smart” smartphone users some mobile phone actually do text messages filters that automatically separate the desired text [no. where it came from] on another folder in the inbox and some may just press the delete all button lol Hassle free lol Did I just gave a bad idea? lol

It looks all nice and pretty but in the end its the advertisers that will keep this kind of system alive. So they will need an accurate way to track their ROI, and as people get smarter, will they just learn to ignore the ad messages and delete them before reading them like we do with lots of spam messages we get in SMS today or Email. Eventually these subscribers of CURE will get used to the spam of these ads and ignore them or will the subscribers respond to the ads in the way thats expected instead of treating it like spam, its pretty much up to that. In the end SMS is intrusive, you have to read it or delete it, you cant just read it when you choose or read it while reading your other messages like a banner ad on the side. People dont like intrusive and will only tolerate if its really worth it, but dealing with 24 Ad sms’s a day, the average user probably sends that much a day?
