Hey guys, I've just developed a new SMS alerter for MtGox's prices. It's called BTC WarnCoin BTC warncoin.com It was designed to be simple, secure and easy to use. It's currently free, as I don't pretend on make money on that, but I'd like it to pay it's costs (like the SMS Gateway, that is not cheap), so if you guys like it, please donate a few bitcoins (or litecoins) to the address on the website. So, what do you guys think of the idea? I want suggestions for improvements, usability, ideas, new tools, etc. My english isn't that good too, so if you see any spelling errors on the website please let me know! Thanks, Update: Now it's available to all the countries! Happy Investments  |

Nice service. Easy to use site. Will there be login for users?
I think you need a beta program to get some usage feedback. No input for telephone or email or twitter, +1 is confusing. Amounts should not start at $1...

Actually the field where you there is a +1 is where you put your telephone number. Is the layout confusing?
Thanks for the feedback guys! Really appreciating.

Actually I don't think that it's has to have a login. I want to make it as simple as possible. But do you think i should log in the user first before it uses the service? So he can see his scheduled alerts? |

So he can see his scheduled alerts? Ahh, yes in US we're not used to seeing "+1" since we ARE +1! I was thinking a login to enable/disable alerts, change/modify, etc. Also for SSL certificate so nothing is plain text. |

I got it btcminer 21. I'll implement both ssl and remove the +1 from the number field. Any more suggestions? Do you think I should pay for some ads?
Thanks a lot,

Sent 9:19AM -- The price of bitcoin on mtgox is lower than 127.7
Lies! Or atleast im not seeing it! Either way I assume this is a fluke and/or will be fixed shortly.
THANKYOU!

Wasn't it lower than 127.7? Are you sure? I'm gonna re-check the code. Thanks everybody for the reviews! I'll soon implement more stuff on the website. |

Receiving texts does count the same as sending them in the U.S. unlike a lot of other countries, but unlimited text plans are pretty common now, if you could implement it across a system like Viber or Whatsapp the end user may be able to reduce their text usage. Not sure how that would affect Rycco's costs though. |

Not sure how that would affect Rycco's costs though. Actually you're not charged for the SMS alert you receive. It's completely free. I'm already testing the Worldwide version of the website. It should be up until the end of the week. The implementation on Viber or Whatsapp alert is a good idea, but since it's 100% free via SMS, I think that way people who doesn't have an smartphone or people without internet connection can still receive the alerts. |
