This is a test of the baby notification system…

Miscellaneous on April 24th, 2008 1 Comment

This is only a test. If this had been an actual notification about baby happenings, you would be instructed to view any and all photos posted here and comment away.

So, here’s how this is going to work. First and foremost, were t-minus 8 days and counting (officially, May 2nd.) When things go down, I’ll be sending out a mass text. If you want to be on this list of mass text, please drop me a line (e-mail steve@speakingdigital.com) and let me know.  I’ll add you to the list of numbers.  We’ll see just how well an iPhone can handle sending out texts to multiple people.

Of those lucky people that get that text, your mission, if you choose to accept it, is to spread the word like wildfire to everyone you know. Updates will be posted here and when photo opportunities are available, you will get to see photos.

This whole setup will be a test of how well technology likes to play with each other. The photos will be taken and e-mailed from my iPhone to Flickr. From Flickr, they will be cross-posted to here. This whole process will happen seamlessly – just like getting the nursery ready. So, yeah, just be ready.

This was only a test. Thank you.

    Hi, my son was just born last Sunday and before that I created a little web tool which helped me to notify all my people. I created a public version after many of our friends asked if they could have it, too.
    It’s from parents to parents-to-be: http://www.babynotify.com

    Greetings,

    Andy
