If you are a women living in America do me a favor right now. Take out your phone and text message the letters "SMS" and send it to 75444 so that you and your girlfriends can learn more about and eventually even register to vote. Its really important that you do this. Men can try to by the way but this particular SMS voter registration drive is being done by the non-profit group Women#039s Voices Women Vote in hopes of registering a plethora of women to vote in the upcoming US election cycle.
Women’s Voices Women Vote will be launching a mobile registration campaign primarily in Nashville Tennessee with ads that utilize the mobile phone’s ubiquitous nature. Ads will be strategically placed in situations where people generally are waiting for something and have their mobile phone easily accessible; i.e. women’s restrooms in bars, bus shelters, and movie theaters before films begin. I guess now you can also add the blogosphere to that list now :-)
If you are a women and already registered to vote you can still do your part by telling your friends to text "SMS" to 75444. As you know, most of your friends probably have their cell phone on them when you are speaking to them and sending a text message will only interrupt conversations for a few seconds... the same amount of time it takes to unwrap a stick of gum.
Imagine what cell phones could have done during the women#039s suffrage movement!
