The New York Times, one of the in the highest degree newspapers in the U.S., has tapped the power of text messaging or SMS to deliver the latest news, columns and features without circumlocution to our mobile devices. The mark of respect is free of charge but standard carrier rates put.
Though this development is noticeably late for a newspaper known for covering important technology news, it is stop a welcome feature conducive to many of its readers who are always on the rush.
Just send a text message using the right keyword (hither's the full list), give to 698698 (NYTNYT) and you enjoin receive the 3 most recent articles about your favorite topics or plane columnists.
Though NYT claims the text message keywords will appear in the appropriate sections, I ended up really frustrated looking as antidote to those keywords and announcement about this very adapted to practice feature. With too much texts and graphics on each layout, they must make it easily recognizable for the readers.
