October 18, 2007
Well, if that heading got you sound something odd to what I am talking about, here we have a cool SMS forward service Vakow! a fun place to share your cool SMS’s and get new ones. This is really a fun place where you will definitely love. You may have your good SMS Collection that you feel not to be deleted and keep it blocked in your Inbox or save them in your system or a notepad. Now the best way you can do is, forward the SMS to Vakow! and share it with all Vakow! subscribers. You can do that by posting from your phone to +91 99015 54321 or from the web, without paying a single penny (except the general SMS charge your service provider may be charging only when you forward through phone to the mentioned number). Do you feel web is the better option?

Vakow! is a community of ppl who luv SMS Forwards. It’s a place to:
1. Build ur SMS collection
2. Rate the SMSes you like
3. Forward SMSes to ur friends
4. Search and Subscribe to find new SMSes
The brain behind this concept is of Rahul Gupta (better known as RG) and Amit Upadhyay, the aluminis of IIT Mumbai. They recently launched earlier this month and have already received great response.
While rating allows the highest quality of SMS forwards, tagging allows organizing SMSes into various categories. Once an SMS forward is up on the site, the community can either rate it, or tag it. You may opt for a subscription of your choice and the quality of SMS you wish to receive. Even if you feel not to receive SMSes in your mobile and want to read them on web, you can have the option selected to redirect them to your Vakow! Inbox on web and read them at your leisure
Doesn’t that sound great and must register?
So go ahead, upload your current SMSs on the web and share with all.
Tidy Inbox on mobile is always cool
Cleaner it remains, you have great smile on your face (as you keep getting more funny SMSes)
Add an option in your To do list now “Send SMS to many for free of cost. I will register to Vakow! Right now.”
I would say, this is a great innovative concept and will surely catch up well among the young Indian crowd. We need not give out our thoughts over the revenue for running the site, unless we have the service for free

Yeah I just had a look at Vakow - interesting. Even though SMS has been around for decades I think the SMS+Web space is still emerging - (SMS broadcast, storage, archiving, community). We've also been treasuring people's SMS messages online (since 2003) at Treasuremytext. It's nice to see interesting approaches to the problem. After all everybody loves their SMS messages and wants to share / keep them!
