Splash

[Ext User(Graeme Willox)]

I just received a text on my work mobile, which is a Nokia 3315. The
text said it was from Splash, but said "Message cannot be displayed
here". I'm not going to reply to it, but does anyone have any idea who
or what "Splash" is? I've had this phone in my possession for about 6
months, and I've never received one of these before.

Thanks for that.

On my phone, it just said that the message was from Splash. There was
no number at all, so I had no idea who or what it was from.

or was it a "splash message"?



Mobile Web 2.0
Since the explosion of Web 2.0 applications over the last few years, some
have been discussing how this technology can be applied to mobile devices.
Probably the first technology to cross over onto mobile devices was the
blog, resulting in the term moblog. Ajit Jaokar’s Open Gardens blog, takes
this further, suggesting adapted versions of del.icio.us and flickr for
mobile devices. The usage of mobile devices can potentially affect tagging
and sharing data. For example, tags for a visual image could be added at the
point when the image is captured, based on physical location, time, and data
from other users. Sharing data between mobile devices, for example using
Bluetooth, would also depend on physical location: in fact data could be
fixed to particular locations, a practice known as ‘air graffiti’ or ‘splash
messaging’ and enabled by a combination of spatial information and mapping
feeds. Other suggestions, including one for a 'pocket wiki' for syncing
wikis written with mobile devices have also been put forward by the blog Web
2.5. While critics point to the difficulties of transferring Web 2.0
concepts such as open standards to the mobile web, advocates present it as a
means of bringing information down to the user rather than pushing
information up onto the web.

The phone it arrived on is an old Nokia 3315 which doesn't support any
type of MMS or video or polyphonic ringtones etc. It appeared to come
through as a text message. All the phone said was: "Message cannot be
displayed" and it said it was from "Splash" where a phone number would
usually be.

I just thought I'd ask here to find out what it might be.
