Free UK SMS via Raspberry Pi

Just a reminder.

http://www.smspi.co.uk

you can send free SMS via the API or via the webpage to any UK number.

Just remember don't abuse the service or you end up on a rather disturbing webpage and dont use it to sell on gumtree if your a scammer from nigeria.

it can accept incoming sms so you can send a sms and it will then be either emailed to you or send it on to your own script and do get it to run some sort of command.

some ideas.
