 (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=397831.new#new)

To send an SMS (GSM Text Message), you need to send a Twitter Direct Message (not a status update!) to @MEDTipBot:

sendmedsms +nnnnxxxxxxxxxxxxxx  Here goes the text of the sms!!!

The receiving mobile phone will receive a SMS from "MEDTipBot", with the following text:
from @yourTwitterScreenName:  Here goes the text of the sms!!!

The mobile phone number must start with the international prefix (+nnnn) and must contain no spaces.
example:
+44123456789000 VALID
44123456789000 NOT VALID!
0044123456789000 NOT VALID!

To be able to send a direct message to @MEDTipBot, do the following:
a - follow @MEDTipBot (if you do not follow already ;)
b - post one of this commands:
#MediterraneanCoin showbalance
or
#MediterraneanCoin update

After this, you should be ready to send Twitter Direct Messages to user @MEDTipBot

Costs and limitations (beta!)
The tariff is 300 MED for each SMS!!!
Each user can send up to 5 SMS every 24 hours.
Each receving mobile number can receive up to 3 SMS every 24 hours.

Please do not abuse of this service!!! All operations are logged, of course.
This is an experiment; we reserve to change all the conditions (even terminate the service) as we go and we get feedback from users!!!
