Yahoo! launches a group texting service, techcrunch reports. The site name is mixd.
You can group-text your friends while you are out, share media, and see it on the web. This is not the first service of this kind, obviously (here it is a comparison among eigth available group texting services). But it looks nice.
The thing I keep wondering about though is just how would it be possible to use such a service here in Italy without getting broke in a few days, standing to our insane mobile phone tolls. 
I think I would be more worried with my thumbs falling off from texting on these small devices and my eyes going cross-eyed from reading test that is typed in all lowercase than I would be for the cost of text messaging…email still rules as far as a way to text someone.
