Anonymous Monk has asked for the wisdom of the Perl Monks concerning the following question:

Hi Monks!
A quick quest for information here. I would like to have users sending text messages to my web site so I can post the information there. Has anyone done something like that before, any code sample that I could start with?
Thanks for any help!

    Been there, done that. For my case, it was a matter of sending an XML request document over HTTP, and receiving an XML response in reply, containing messages. But that was the API the carrier we were using was providing us. Different carrier, different API, I presume.

    What API is your carrier providing?

      This thing didn't even got out of paper yet, all that is still been studied. It just sucks that we still have to be at the hands of some provider. But its all relative.
