Was browsing the web, as I do most days.
Yahoo has a nice littlepoint at the top of the page " The latest news from the Gulf straight to your mobile"

Why?
Firstly why would you want the latest news sent to you when it is all over the tv, radio and newspapers.
Also you have to pay for it and how much info can you cram into a text message.

Is this what people get sent to their phones. Do people actually waste money to use this service.
Is it just me that finds that odd and hard to understand?

My and my friend were laughing at an advert for a Linkin Park News text service that charges £2 for every bit of news you receive. Ludicrous.

It's all just another shameless method of money making.
