i-cast - FAQ

iCast

1) What is i-cast?

i-cast is new and innovative! You can keep you in touch with people you care about-your friends (and constituents) by updating them (i-casting) about your movements/actions either by Internet or by Mobile so that they know what you have done/are doing.This way they will know instantly what you want them to know. You do not have to send seperate update to each of them.
'Following' are those you want to get update from. 'Followers' are those you want should get your update. For this micro-blogging/social-networking service you can send a message (i-cast) of upto 160 characters at one time.

2) What is i-cast through mobile?

Using i-cast with your phone will change the feel of i-cast for you. Not only can you receive text messages on your mobile when those you are following update (i-cast), you can also send updates (i-casts) to your followers while you're on the go by messaging 5667767.

You can send i-cast updates from www.scratchmysoul.com To use your mobile phone please ensure that you are authenticated on the site (do that at registration time, or check your profile page).

4) Text Messages? Sounds expensive. How much will i-cast cost me?

To get i-casts from those you are following on your mobile you have to subscribe. The rates are given. To get i-casts on the net on your i-cast zone you don’t have to subscribe-it is free and will keep coming if you are listed as a follower.
