SaySoMobile: Make Money Receiving Text Ads On Your Mobile Phone

Are you sick and tired of receiving crappy spam messages in your inbox every single day? Well why only receive spam in your inbox when now you can also receive it on your mobile phone! This all comes from a new startup called SaySoMobile.

SaySoMobile is a new startup in which users can sign up and receive advertisements straight onto their mobile phone and in return the user makes a little money. Its that simple!

The idea is simple. Advertisers want access to people which gets their message across as much as possible for as little as possible. This new startup allows advertisers to target certain people in certain countries with advertisements direct onto their mobile phones via messages. Advertisers know that with this method the high majority of ads will be opened before they can be deleted, thus having a higher possibility of providing them a return on their investment.

Im very interested to hear from people using this service to make a little extra money, mainly to see if the money they are making is worth the intrusiveness of the advertisements.

Arrington Your Selling Out

It was reported on Friday by Michael Arrington over at Techcrunch that in the deal with Robert Scoble and FastCompany, that Robert had to allow Fast Company to monetize his weblog and give it an overall makeover. I know for a long time now Scoble has always protested about putting advertisements on his personal weblog and with good reason. However, this being sad, his weblog has great potential and really does need a make over at the very least. Im sure that with the relationship between Robert and Fast Company, Robert wont want to put obtrusive advertisements on his weblog and in the long run he will still be in total control of that property. I know im just going to be happy to see a new layout!
