Send SMS text messages with AOL IM

August 16th, 2005 | by amarfresh |

I knew this once before, but I must have forgotten.

Using AOL’s IM network you can send an SMS to any cellphone. Simply send a message to “+1″ followed by the 10-digit cell phone number. (ex: +12121234567) The message will be sent via SMS to the user’s SMS inbox. The recipient can even reply to the message! The mobile number does not even need to be registered with AOL. Of course, for a mobile user to initiate a message to an AOL IM user, the appropriate instant messaging software would be needed on the phone.
