Cellphones.org lists just 10 ways you can use your phone to integrate into your life to makes things a little easier. Bonus is that even the dumbest of phones can play along.



Sending a text message, or an SMS (simple message service) has been around sense 1985 when the ability to transmit a 160 characters to another mobile handset became available. Today, there are more than 2.4 billion active users, or 74% of all mobile phone subscribers sending and receiving text messages on their phones. It must be popular given there are services dealing only with text based addictions.

In addition to options now available through Twitter, the ability to set and forget updates sent to and from your phone means there is now no excuse for forgetting, well, anything.

Shopping wise, you can manage your Amazon Wishlist with Kwiry, search Google or my personal favorite: order a pizza from Domino, Papa John or Pizza Hut. Just what will I order tonight…
