.net sms sending libraries
I am using .NET from last 3-4 days I got success sending e-mail using .NET now i want to send an SMS using .Net i have searched a lot but couldn't found anything.
Have you considered using Twillio?
Twillio is a telephony that exposes voice and sms services via a REST API. There is an C# implementation client for the API
You will be able to send and receive messages.
As for sending SMS nativity from C#, I don't believe this can be done.
Update
In the past I have had success with TwilioSharp.
There are other .Net libraries to choose from, if TilioSharp does not work out.
As per my knowledge, sending SMS from .Net requires consuming webservice which has access to gateway to mobile nework(GSM, CDMA..). There are some service provider which provides API for .Net developers for sending SMS. There are some paid serivices also where you pay some fixed amount for certain no of SMSes. You may find some free service providers as well. Just google bro by searching with keywords "SMS API for .Net".
Here is an example:

Much easier solution - send an email to the appropriate address based upon the service:

I'm developing a SMS sending and receiving application using EasySMPP library. So,I was able to send sms using this library but I can't receive messages using EasySMPP library. Because I can't find a methods for SMPP message receiving in EasySMPP, I'm trying more than 1 week to do it. But,I couldn't succeed yet. Please anyone know how to overcome this problem, let me know.
Finally, doing months of research I found a .net SMPP library for which can be used to send and received messages via SMPP protocol. The library link is https://www.tops.com.pl/en/smscc/
That is very easy to use library and sending messages at high speeds.
InetLab provides a high level library for receive/send SMPP messages. There are useful examples also illustrating how it works. Whole library needed to buy if you want to edit SDK code.
I have tried to send an sms from C# code using Gmail but I can't find Gmail services for sending sms. I need any way to do that by Gmail or another posiibility. How can I send an sms from C# or VB.NET program to a mobile phone?
You can use the Twilio to Windows Azure Notification Hub service for this.
Its fairly hard to give you an accurate answer as it can depend on where you are and where you want to send SMS's to as some providers only support some countries or have issues sending to certain networks, so make sure you know what your requirements are before choosing a provider.
In the past I've used Clickatel, as they supported the countries and networks I needed, and their API was good enough.
The only other advice I would give is whatever service you end up using pay for it, free services are more trouble than they are worth.
Hope this helps,

im making an application that needs to get received messages that were sent to google chat. is there an api for working with google chat?
can someone please give me an example in C# how do i receive gtalk messages? im sorry the xmpp documentation is too complex and i do not understand where to start
I believe that Gtalk uses the Jabber/XMPP protocol.
You can find more information on it here: http://xmpp.org/protocols/
Here is a list of APIs you may find useful:

I just wanted to develop one web application which allows users to send an SMS to any mobile free of charge . I searched on the net and found many codes and articles and through those articles i came to know that for that kind of application, i required either of the
following things:
Web service (Third party web services that are free but not working or not delivering the sms)
GSM Modem ( I don't have any idea about this)
SMS Gateway ( I don't have any idea about plz suggest me a idea
An SMS gateway is basically an API (usually a webservice) which you can call to send the SMS's. If you're not going to send very high volumes I think this is the way to go.
Try something like: ZeepMobile
They seem to have a pretty good guide as to how a developer would go about using their API, which can easily be applied to most SMS APIs out there.
So who is going to pay for the SMS? If the user isn't, then either the receiver or yourself will have to - telco's don't carry SMS messages for free, and they charge each other termination fees when messages arrive on their network from another.
Is there an easy way to create an IM bot on multiple im networks (aim, gtalk, yim, etc) that can accept and interpet specific commands sent to it to perform a server related task?
Lets say for instance I have a website for managing an rss feed. I want to send a command to an IM bot to add another feed to my collection. the IM bot would associate my screen name with my account from prior setup on the website.
I have done some internal bots for my company using the XMPP (Jabber) protocol, I've used the agsXMPP SDK and the Jabber.NET client libraries, I was looking for APIS to work with YIM, AIM and Windows Live Messenger but I've found only COM exposed APIS, nothing for .NET...
But an idea comes to my mind, with the XMPP Protocol you can configure a local server with IM Gateways, that allow users to access networks using other protocols through your server
I use eJabberd, you can install a variety of transport gateways to connect with other IM protocols (AIM, MSN, ICQ, GTalk...
To GTalk you can connect directly using the libraries I mention...
A sample ICQ gateway:
The short answer to this question is yes this can be done relitivly easily. Sedning and receiving IMs sending, receiving and interpreting requests from the network you wish to communicate on and there are libraries available for each of the major IM protocols to make this easier.
For messenger you can try the DotMsn library, I have used it in the past but at that time it was still quite new and I have not used it since so I can't vouch for it's quality.
Jabber uses the XMMP protocol which is an open-standard so there are bound to be plenty of client libraries available.
If I recall correctly Google Talk uses this protocol or a modified version thereof.
I dont have experience with c# but I have written one for AIM and Gtalk using PHP. http://www.imified.com/ is the best place to start if you looking for a easier way to write an IM bot.
Basically you create an account in imified.com .
Name your bot and link a script.
When ever a message is sent to the bot, imified.com automatically runs this script.
Here is a link for you get you started!
