Some GP surgeries and hospital clinics are doing the same thing. I get reminders of appointments from my local clinic, and they've even started giving you test results by text, although the system seems to be faulty as they often aren't received. Definitely a step in the right direction though.

This is something new! Read about tons of mobile marketing on politics, businesses, and entertainment, I must say this is interesting and a clever idea. No room for any excuses now.

I thought putting 'appointment reminders' in the headline didn't look right!

When I read the headline I instantly had a mental image of "young offenders" getting regular text messages saying "Remember kids, be good!" and "Tsk tsk $name, what would your old gran think if she knew?"

The actual implementation seems to be much more useful :)
