We're flattered, thanks MashupAwards! Well, let's see...first we'd like to thank, uh, well, wait what? Oh, wrap it up? Ok, thanks everyone!
This is one of our favorite pieces of coverage, simply because we really loved this idea as well. Company swag can be so lame and we didn't want to go out like that, so we tried something new. Thanks to Josh Lowensohn for noticing and recognizing in his article "Mosio taps into Twitter community for mobile Q&A service"
The caption is our favorite: "Best, Web swag. Ever."
"I love this idea of just texting in questions when you need information instead of trying to go find it for myself (what’s that you say? Lazy? Nah….) We liked most of what we found here, and it’s pretty high on the cool factor."
Thanks Michael!

HOW IT WORKS
Sign up for both Mosio and Jott. In your Mosio Settings enter your Jott information. When you have a question, simply call Jott (866-JOTT-123) and say "MOSIO" then your question. Your answer will be texted back to you within moments by the Mosio community.
Back to Mosio
Dubbed Mosio, this service allows you to text whatever question you have, and real people will answer it for you, and reply via text.
So, going back to the age of Hillary Clinton, I just sent them the question and some seconds later got a text back:
Hillary Clinton was born in 1947 so she is 60 years old
There it was. The answer right in the palm of my hands, which ended the argument very quickly as everyone was off by years."Full Story

"I was impressed to get my question (What is Lifehacker?) answered (Lifehacker is an advertising-supported weblog about life hacks and software which launched on January 31, 2005) in just a couple of minutes. Mosio seems like an idea that would work best for finding answers to questions for which you wouldn't really know where to begin looking with something like Google SMS."
Thanks Adam!
