That’s an MMS?
My elder daughter sent me an MMS of a jetski she had been riding while visiting family this week. Cool.
Not so cool was that it didn’t arrive as an MMS. It arrived as an SMS inviting me to log in to a URL for Vodafone Livestudio! with my phone number and an abstract password. After some passable attempts by my phone to render a large, complex HTML page, I found I had to link through to another page, which sort of rendered, but there was no way I could log in. The form just didn’t work.
As it happened I was in the office and had the computer beside me, and was able to login easily and view the picture and accompanying text. It’s worth noting that she is on O2, so it wasn’t sent via Vodafone service.
Surely an MMS is meant to be enjoyed immediately and directly? What if I was out and about, away from a computer? A distinct lack of joined-up thinking going on there!
