Run SMS chat, voting on the Internet

 

Pangolin's Interactive Messaging Unlimited system lets you 1) receive and process incoming SMS text messages; 2) manually or automatically reply to those messages while conducting a variety of compaigns and promotions; and 3) display them on the Internet, or in public using video or lasers. Step 1 and Step 2 are handled by a program also named IMU, which is described on this page. Step 3 is handled by a multimedia and SMS text display program such as Video Messaging Unlimited. The text below describes how IMU's output can be posted to an Internet web page.

Output SMS chatting, voting and other campaigns and promotions on the Internet

You can run SMS chat sessions, voting, and a variety of other SMS campaigns on any website, using IMU along with a collection of Java and Adobe FLASH components available (separately) from Pangolin. There is a Java server to install at your website, and an Adobe FLASH client that you embed into web pages (it is automatically downloaded to the viewer's web browser when they access the web page).

It is easy to do web-based SMS campaigns and promotions using our components, with the result being a VMU-like screen that viewers see on a web browser. You can set up different windows and screens using standard web page creation techniques. Our components allow you to create web pages with different areas devoted to:

  • graphics (bitmaps such as JPEG and GIF files)

  • text

  • scrolling text such as "Call 212-555-1212 to send your text message"

  • SMS chat

  • SMS voting

  • live or pre-recorded video (media files)

Then, when you run your event, anyone browsing to your web page will see your window and its content -- including the incoming SMS chat messages and votes. In fact you can do simultaneous video output (to a video projector) and web output (to your web page).

Pangolin's Interactive Messaging Unlimited system makes it easy for you to go worldwide with your SMS event or venue! If you have the IMU system, and want to add web capabilities, contact Pangolin for pricing and availability on the Java and Adobe FLASH components.

Example layout

The live example layout found here shows streaming video in the lower right, animated slide show in the upper right, and a text "ad" at the top. The two SMS areas have voting and chat. If this was a live screen being run by VMU, the voting and chat areas would change as new SMS votes and messages come in.
