Pingie.com - RSS to SMS

Addicted to your RSS feeds? Pingie keeps you in the loop 24-7 where ever you go. Yes, the name is too cute, but the service is quick, easy to use and painless. It’s an efficient way to keep your news cravings satisfied. It’s got a myriad of features and potential applications. You can keep yourself updated on the latest deals from Woot or find out what’s up with Britney by the hour or minute these days. How does it work? Sign up by entering your mobile phone number, and enter the feeds you need. Pingie will send you an SMS or email with the info you want. Pingie, of course, keeps your info private and you can customize your pings at any time. The best part? It’s free (just make sure you’ve got unlimited text messages).

 
  In their own words  

“Introducing Pingie, an instant RSS to SMS notification utility. This ABSOLUTELY FREE service has been simmering in the Experiment23 labs for some time now and is created to allow information junkies to stay consistently in the loop via SMS or email notifications.”

  Why it might be a killer  

Pingie is great for those on the go who can’t be connected to the internet 24-7. It’s got a lot of potential besides the simple news feeds. It would be great to alert you on emergencies, for example.

  Some questions  

Will Pingie get to annoying for users? Can Pingie withstand the current influx of wireless phones that require SMS for RSS? Pingie needs to think of the long term or else it may become obsolete.
