BuddyPress is one of my favorite new apps for building online communities and social networks on your web site. While the iPhone is a very nice device, I've embraced the open source philosophy of developing for the Android mobile platform. Flowplay is an open source app for displaying Flash based H.264 video on your web site. The majority of the web develpment work we do is in PHP MySQL is the world's most popular open source database for a reason Twitter may still be a little rough around the edges, but microblogging is for real and the Twitter API rocks. It's grown from a blogging app into a powerful, lightweight and versatile CMS.  Wordpress and Wordpress MU are awesome. OpenX is my favorite open source solution for managing and maximizing your online and mobile advertising inventory. When WordPress isn't the right tool for the job, I turn to the equally amazing open source CMS Drupal. content developer helps you build share and monetize content driven community focused web sites using open source tools like wordpress, buddypress, openx and flowplayer, and social networking platforms like twitter and facebook.

Quick update - If you use Wordpress, there look to be some interesting plug-ins available now that take advantage of this same approach for delivering SMS messages via email. I downloaded one - EasySMS - and plan to test it out. http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/easysms/ - Comment left on 01/27/2010.

Comment on Open Source SMS Text Messaging Application by jackson
hey there, have been messing around with phpmailer for awhile, and found your site while looking for a solution to a problem: international characters not displaying when emailed. when phone returns and email, writing international chars with it's own keyboard, likewise not displayed in email i believe this is an issue with the GSM charset, eg: it's needed to be able to send readable sms to phones (gsm charset supports international chars) have tried changing content type, encoding and numerous other things, would appreciate any ides you may have, feel free to email,thanks - Comment left on 09/25/2009.
