We’re big fans of Cville kickball.  The Charlottesville Sports and Social Club has been using Blastogo for months to send “we need 2 more people or we have to forefit” blasts, or “let’s grab a burger after the game”.

They’ve now created a weather-line for the teams.  Players can join the group to get weekly blasts about field conditions before their games.  Just another example of how Blastogo can make life a little bit easier!

We created a Facebook group today called “I don’t return phone calls, BLAST ME”

You can join the group here!

A few months ago, service providers raised the rate for individual text messages from $.10 to $.20.  At that rate, why not buy an unlimited plan?  It seems like everyone text messages.  My parents both text me on a daily basis…I even, on occasion, get a text from my 86-year-old grandmother.

I think my unlimited text plan is only $10 a month.  I think the 500 message plan would be around $7 anyways.  At this point with cell phones…isn’t it time to take the unlimited plunge? 

How many of you aren’t on an unlimited texting plan?

Our Blastogo cups are in!  The “Dance Party” girls showed them off at their party this week.  You can see more pics on their facebook page!

The girls use Blastogo every week to release the location of their party.  We’re still working on cool flash mob ideas for the end of the year.

Any good ideas for a crazy hilarious flash mob?

No worries!  We’re always here to help you with any Blastogo questions or suggestions!

A group of first-year girls at UVA have created a short, fun, flash-mob style dance party held on-grounds every Wednesday night.  The parties have been hosted once a week for past month and the party gets bigger every week! 

Come to the next Dance Party and you’ll be guaranteed a great time, lots of Red Bull and a nice 20-minute break from studying.

Want the location for tonight’s party?  Text “follow danceparty” to 32075 and you’ll receive a text from the party just in time to grab some friends and head over!

It’s Friday and finally fall break!  If you aren’t sticking around for the game this weekend, chances are you’re going home for a few “reading days”.  Don’t forget to keep everyone in touch over break by using your Blastogo groups! 

You can make groups for your friends at home to keep in touch during the school year too.

We’ll be spending most of our time this weekend outside becuase of this amazing weather.  Happy Fall!

Blastogo is sponsoring a concert series at Boylan Heights (on the corner) called “Wednesday Nights at the Heights”.  Every Wednesday night will feature a different band at Boylan and we’ll be there giving away Blastogo swag!

Text “follow theheights” to 32075 to get a text about next week’s show!

If you’re interested in booking your band at Boylan Heights for our Wed. night series, e-mail: callie@cloudbrain.com

Blastogo groups can either be public or private-it’s up to you!

Public groups are really good for events, venues or bands, who don’t need people to respond to their blasts.

Private groups are good for teams or small groups of friends because everyone can respond and send messages to each other.  Wanna have lunch with your best friends without sending text messages to everyone?  Create a group for your friends and blast everyone with one text!

After much anticipation, Blastogo koozies and shirts are finally here (cups are on the way)!  You too could own a koozie or t-shirt with the famous Blastogo couch on it.

We’ll be doing some cool promotions really soon so make sure you keep reading our updates to find out where we’ll be giving away free Blastogo stuff!
