Wireless Amber Alerts
Being a father I tend to get a bit keyed up when and Amber Alert busts out over my TV screen. I heard a PSA on the radio recently that wireless Amber Alerts are now available for your cell phone.
Just go to wirelessamberalerts.org and sign up. You will only receive alerts that are pertinant to your area. If you like you can opt in for up to 5 area codes. There is no charge to your phone for each alert. Alert coverage is limited to the sites page of wireless carriers. There is also an opt-out option to remove yourself from the list.
This is definitely a positive use for cell phones in the world.
