There seems to me a little catch to this arrangement….
when google has your cellphone number they & 3rd party’s approved by them… will probable also be sending you special offers straight to your cell phone

Skype already does this. You can use your cell phone number as the sender alias so that replies go to your cell.

I do believe that probably every cell phone provider in the United States assigns an email address to each cell phone account. The email address is usually the cell number @ the domain of the provider. When an email it sent to the cell phones email address, it appears to the receiver as a text message and the message can be replied to as a text message back to the source. Therefore, everyone already has the ability to text between gmail and cell phone already.

The process works best when the exchange of messages is started from the email side, I wouldn’t be surprised if many phones are not capable of texting directly to an email address because of a software limitation. However, once the cell phone receives such a text message, there are usually no problems replying directly back to the source, be it an email address or ten-digit phone number.

It used to be T-Mobile only back in 2002 or thereabouts, but I think you can use it on any carrier in north america now - it’s called AIM TXT. I’ve never needed to receive an SMS from the PC first to use it.

Is this option available for Indians

This will be somewhat useful when it comes out. But, if I want to send someone a message that is less than 160 characters, then I’ll probably just pick up my phone and text someone. I am stoked with all of the new applications that Google is picking up though.

You mean that company that made me cancel my credit card because *they couldn’t* stop charging me for dial-up access in 2003?

Let’s not get into the transgressions of AOL over the years, but keep in mind most of us have not forgotten and will not forget. Google is still trustworthy in my book, and until that changes I will use Gmail for anything remotely serious.

Ok, so we don’t know each other. List your AIM s/n and I’ll try to send you an SMS. Oh wait, that won’t work unless you send me an SMS from AIM first…

Nothing makes great news like a big company finally catching up with others 6+ years late. For example, AIM has had a mobile interface for text messaging since 2002 or earlier, though desktop AIM might not have had the ability to send text messages until 2003 or so. And, as noted by someone else, Y! has had it for quite awhile, too.

I think a better feature would be a way to push useful stuff into a private canvas page in a persons Facebook account. Right now your FB app is well sort of blah. Make it more useful by allowing people to save stories and articles in private folders because a lot of times you read about new tech and you are like I could use that, just not now. Just add the share button in Facebook which lets you send the article to friends if people want to do that.
