Central SMS Server

Sometimes you have a mobile with unlimited SMS . But it would be fun if friends can share a common Mobile SMS service over a network.
Also sometimes in Mobile testing application there would be need to continuously generate SMS or Multiple people can share the same Mobile/SIM to send SMS for testing.
Many such applications already exist. But this is my visualization of the implementation.
A PC is connected to the Mobile which can deliver SMS. This PC is web enabled (Hosts a web sever) and hence requests for SMS can be raised by anyone who logs into a web server that resides on the PC connected to the Mobile.
The request for SMS consists of destination and Message and are Logged at the PC in a database and are delivered one after the other.
It would also possible to share a single Mobile for receving SMS. For eg,
1. A person can configure the list of Numbers from which he expects the SMS
2. If the SMS is prepended with the ID of a person then the SMS will be sent to his account.
3. We can chat using this concept
4. Reply messages can be Prepended by Usernames.
