Web texting: Is th-th-that all?

There is like a concerto of new launch these days for group text message services. So far, we spotted just 4 new ones and will review them right away.
Joopz. A web-based group texting service, with this (darn good) specificity: Users can send and receive text messages through the web interface. Well, in that case, if you are the kind of always-on guy sleeping with his WiFi laptop, you can pretty drop your cellphone. We haven’t tried it yet; the service currently is available for US and Canada mobile owners.
Moblabber. A mobile social network in which members receive a text message on topics of their choice. The number to remember of the service is: 63021. It’s working like a prompt. Through it, users access messages of their groups, write and receive SMS, get some help if they don’t figure out how it’s working. Watch out before trying: Each text message received will be charged $0.30, plus the operator charges.
Mozeo. Like Twittr or Dodgeball, Mozeo’s Go Service acts a mailing list. Without any software required, anyone can reply to everyone. When a message is sent, everyone receives it. When someone responds, everyone receives it. People are free to communicate together using simple text messaging, of course, but are charged each time for. (via textually)
Swarmteams: A mobile service for group communication, integrating SMS, Instant Messaging, RSS, and VoIP. Its ambitious “bring’em all” strategy might turn the service into the definitive Swiss knife companies are looking for. Conversation start through IM, email or Skype call, with an administrator monitoring the whole group. The 50 SMS are free, then charged on a per-message basis. It could be the kind of tool you would deploy when your vendors are on the road. But don’t forget that providing too many tools could also mesmerize users.
