News America Marketing, a division of News Corporation, announced that its SmartSource coupons are “going mobile” on Sunday, October 25th, when the SmartSource Magazine coupon insert will be carrying a message to 68 million households. People will also be able to get 13 additional coupons by texting the word “coupons” to the number 87415. The system will ask for your email and permission to send you additional mobile offers in the future… You’ll get the rest of the instructions from them.
Anyway, for the launch there will be coupons from Kotex, Huggies, Trident, Jimmy Dean, Kellogg and Tyson, totaling $17.50 in savings and ranging in value from 50 cents to $3.00. The coupons will remain available until November 8th…
In a nutshell, we have another major company embracing mobile technology and that’s a good thing.

Dusan has been using smartphones since their introduction and is now following the latest trends in the industry. The "convergence" is what he's most excited about, and writing about it is the next logical thing to do. He thinks that using a smartphone is what everyone who cares about their time should do.
In addition to his interests in mobile phones, Dusan also loves to experiment with the latest web and mobile 2.0 services. The idea of accessing and managing your information from any device no matter where you are simply amazes him. Whether it's an online to-do list, note taking service or a video sharing social network, he's there to try it out. He admits though, he's still searching for the ultimate web-based organizational tool, which "sings" perfectly with the mobile PIM application.
Dusan used to run SymbianWatch.com which later became part of IntoMobile. He lives in Serbia, South-East Europe, from where he edits the site on a daily basis.
