I am looking to program and design a website that displays SMS text messages as they are sent to a phone number.
For example, every time someone sends a text to number (555)555-1234, the text message is displayed real time on the site. Multiple texts are listed as they come in, much like the twitter timeline. The site should be designed to allow a separate page for each recipient phone number – i.e. a text sent to (789)555-9876 will be displayed on a different page than texts sent to (555)555-1234.
Programmers may have to get creative to successfully complete this concept. I.e. texts can be sent to google voice number, which can be turned into an email message. The email message can then be scraped and displayed on the site – perhaps using Curl. Other better ideas are also welcome.
The text message date should also be captured in a MySQL database. Info captured should be: sending phone number, recipient phone number, text message. On the site, only the text message and area code of the sending phone number should be displayed.
I’d prefer to work with programmers close to home. I’d also like to ignore autobot responders. Therefore, please include “I’m a real person and country of residence is….” in your reply.
