Limbo Launches Mobile Alerts for NFL, NBA, MLB, NHL and NCAA Football and Basketball Teams
The days of being tied to a television or computer to check game scores are finally over. With Limbo’s new text alerts, the scores come directly to your mobile phone. Limbo, one of the world’s fastest growing mobile social networks, today announced the launch of free sports text message alerts to any mobile phone user.
To receive text alerts directly to a mobile phone, all a person needs to do is send the word SPORTS to Limbo’s short code, 41414. A message will then be sent asking for a text with the name of a favorite NBA, NFL, NHL, MLB or NCAA football or basketball team. Scores are sent as soon as the game ends, and there are no limits to the number of team alerts a person can receive.
Limbo founder and CEO, Jonathon Linner, says he’s personally excited to start using the alerts. “I hate not knowing the score of a game or if the game’s over when I’m away from a computer or TV. This makes it easier and less time consuming to keep up with my favorite teams.”
In addition to sports team score alerts, Limbo offers over one hundred other alert options including horoscopes, jokes and weather. Limbo sends out over one million text message alerts every day. Limbo also provides location-aware social network tools that let members share their location, find friends nearby, locate business such as restaurants and stores, and have grout chats.
To sign up for free alerts, text SPORTS to 41414 or visit www.Limbo.com.
