SMS Alerts from Gmail/Google Apps

From the so clever I don’t know why I didn’t think of it category comes this handy tip from MakeUseOf. If you’ve ever wished that G-mail could send you a text when you get an important message, this technique uses your wireless carrier’s SMS gateway (ie: yourphonenumber@smsemail.com) and a G-mail filter to send a text to your phone. Its so obvious it never occurred to me.
