Snippets can send automatic text messages to wireless devices and remote desktop systems. These new capabilities will allow users to receive automatic notifications when changes occur in important documents, inventory levels, sales performance, IT systems and any other information they need to monitor while away from the office.

Wireless Alerts and Notification
The Snippets SDK provides the necessary methods to take data extracted by an Agent on the desktop and forward it automatically to any email address. One way to implement this capability is to allow the user to customize an Agent's settings, as shown here:

In this example, the user can enter an email address to a remote computer or a wireless device and check the notification box to forward the information that is extracted from the source web page and displayed in the Agent. Here, the total pages viewed on an intranet web site for the day is automatically sent each time the Agent updates.

To test this new feature yourself, download the Snippets Demo Edition and right-click the Web Stats Agent after installation to change the settings.
