This is all about giving credit when credit is due. I saw this post on Mobilitysite FIRST so I want to give Chris credit but Chris found the story on Arne Hess' site the::unwired and rightfully gave Arne the credit...it was his story. So my link goes back to Arne's site with a via to Chris' site ... for those that don't understand that concept, it's called "giving credit when credit is due".
Slam is a Microsoft Research Community Technologies Group research project, developed in conjunction with the Microsoft Photo and Imaging eXperience (PIX) team. It is a mobile device-based application that enables lightweight, group-centric real-time communication, location awareness and photo-sharing.
The core concept behind Slam is a “Slam”, a group of people with whom you can exchange messages and photos. When you send a message in Slam, it is automatically sent to everyone in the group to which you sent it. For smartphone users that have the Slam client installed, their phone will buzz and they will have an indication on their phone’s home screen that there is a new message. For SMS users, they will receive the message as an SMS from the Slam server. Like smartphone users, SMS users can be members of multiple slam groups. SMS users will send / receive messages to a different phone number for each slam group they a member of.
The Slam application will run on any Windows Mobile SmartPhone.
