In recent years, sending short messages to mobiles (SMS) has become an essential requirement for the development of platforms for my customers.

Given the low cost of SMS, they have became an extremely popular communication method at a professional level for various applications:

VoIP technology (Voice over IP) is no longer new. However, maybe motivated by a certain lack of technical knowledge, a lot of people miss the opportunity to use this – almost - free service and they keep on paying extra for their communications.

Because of the pertinence of the subject, and because the recent news about millions of computers being controlled remotely by computer pirates has spread in the last weeks, I am posting an article that I had published in 2002, which content is still up to date.

Please notice that your computer may not be of interest at first sight, but it may still be quite tempting to the enigmatic hackers out there!

Quemvem.com emerged as a small pietism manifestation on a Saturday afternoon after a football matche with friends.

Summoning almost 30 people every week, organizing Excel files to get to know how many had already confirmed their attendance, how many still did not said anything, how many wouldn’t attend, opening dozens and dozens of emails just reading “I am coming” then "I am no longer coming" - after some time I said “STOP IT!”

	Published by Luis Miguel Gonçalves on Nov, 14th 2009

Like many online websites, Remolpinta had a problem: the distress in the update of its online content.

Being a static website, its update had to be made by a person with HTML knowledge. Such made the website slow on updates with the related image cost . This represents perfectly the not so efficient exploitation of the precious online channels nowadays.

When I was requested to do a Rent-A-car webpage, interconnected to a global booking server and with little over 10 days...I hesitated...to say the least...

The specification were somewhat vague and although I had a webpage as an example, I also had a specification document for the XML interface creation with 62 pages to analyze in record time.
