Google copies the concept

Google is working on sending group sms which is already established concept by other providers like 160by2.com, twitter, indyarocks etc. to name few. The only difference I found is that there won't be any ads in the text messages sent using the Google channels. That means users get the full 160 letters. Otherwise its the same concept.
Google has to stop this copying thing and need to come out with new innovative products. Google also launched google video which was a failure because Youtube was already well established in the market and finally they had to acquire youtube, it is a waste of resources.

160by2.com reminder feature

I tried using the reminder feature of 160by2.com to set a sms reminder of my friend. I gave my number and the reminder was supposed to send me sms about my friend's birthday and it missed. This service by 160by2.com needs more improvement. Thank god I had also set the reminder on my cell phone and I could wish him.
