This was one of those "it's a 3-day weekend... I wonder if I can build something and learn something."
I decided to cobble something together that permits anonymous texting. It's certainly not perfect, but I thought it was worth showing off to the HN crowd.
$35 for a domain name (sigh, I used godaddy for a Southern Georgia .gs domain; namecheap couldn't help me. Sorry guys). An old server, ubuntu Server edition, Python, Postfix, Sqlite, and little bit of code, a free blogger "website", and it all pretty much works.
What do you think?
PS I'm happy to post a follow-up with all the gory details.

Please do; I had something similar in mind some time ago, but never got around to it. Let's hear it.
