Cell Command
So, I sat down and wrote a small little program on my website for cellphones. It’s a text message based command line system. It receives text messages, processes the command, and sends a response back to my cellphone if necessary.
Some of the commands I currently have programmed in are reading/writing to a notepad file, checking my email, checking the weather, and getting other information from my website.
It was a small project, and only took a few hours to complete.. but it’s probably one of the more useful things I’ve written recently.
In a little more detail, the whole program is based on a PHP backend which runs every few minutes that checks for new messages. If it finds a message, it takes the first word, assumes it’s a command, and runs the PHP file associated with that command, and forms a response, and then sends the response back to the sender.
I’d give out the address for everyone to test, but I’m still working on security features
