Wind Text Messaging Service
To register, go to this link.
http://www.textmarks.com/WINDY I just discovered a feature to this service. You can text message directly to a user by using their username. Just text to 41-411 MSG username then your message. Example 41-411 MSG PaulFox this is a great feature so we can communicate directly if needed. Last edited by pdfox; 10-01-2009 at 01:24 PM. |

I would like to request that everyone go on the textmarks webpage and change their username from the one that is randomly assigned. I think it also would be better to use real names.
List of abbreviations for kite beaches SB - Sunset Beach SW - Skyway NE BSSW - Skyway NW SSW - Skyway southside EB - East Beach NB - North Beach - Ft Desoto BB - Big Beach - Ft Desoto PAG - Pass a Grille BF - Blue Flag - St. Pete Beach TI - Treasure Island LS - Lassing Park - St. Pete NS - North Shore Park - St Pete CY - Cypress Park - Tampa PI - Picnic Island - Tampa IRB - Indian Rocks Beach HI - Honeymoon Island Last edited by pdfox; 10-01-2009 at 11:14 AM. |

And please, don't text that "you are going to SB and will report when you get there", or to ask "how the conditions are over there?", or such.
guys , lets keep it strictly about the conditions at a specific time and place

I agree with on site reporting only. I unsubscribed this weekend due to all of the "extra" texts. I would recommend adding the time of day to your text because when I sent a text while unsubscribed the time was off by the 3 hours as described in a previous post. It takes another text to resubscribe as described before - probably easier and more reliable to add the time.

I can't even express how great this is!! I have to drive from Sarasota so it's little bit of a commitment. Thanks for all the info this week. Problem is when you are working it makes me jones to kite so bad.
I too had to unsubscribe or I will def go over!! |
