Could I use a Jaiku channel as cheap sms notification tool for students?

    be interested to read it. thinking of using it to notify students about changes in tutorial dates. Ideal for a pilot as they could opt in

    Is Jaiku open now? Or still invite only?

    Invite I think but everyone has unlimited invites.

    @eam0 - For your needs, something like txtmob would be better, imo. Although a tie-in through a channel in Jaiku would be nice ;) Problem is we still don't have private channels....

    Roll on private channels. I wouldn't have thought it would be that difficult (open to be completely disagreed with on this one as I don't know the inner workings of Jaiku at all!)

    @alexleonard you can create up a new jaiku user and make their postings private. This is the equivalent of a private channel (bit messy I know). Thanks to James Clay for this one.
