HP, one of the major software players in the world, as we know are active in the research industry. And now, to prove this, the HP researchers in India has come out with an innovative method to access internet via SMS from your mobile. It uses the HP clouds to enable access to the internet via SMS and voice based interaction.
The website reports that the when a website is accessed, it is first compressed and sent to the mobile via SMS according to the business needs. I’m sure this would enable internet access to almost all the mobile users in India. Currently, the SiteOnMobile is by invite only. I’ve requested an invite from them. Would review about the technology once I receive one. Here’s a short video of how it works.
