There  might be;: as in consent should be taken from both the SENDER & RECIEVER.

Yeah ..but that won't be required in case of regular messages

Now this is what blogging coming down to, its sad. I dont think that is even blogging, posting sms's on your blog.

I think its different and innovative- capitalizing on our voyeuristic tendencies. Much more interesting than readin people's emo ramblings about their feelings.

I got your point ....what you aimed at.....:P

Its kinda funny but unique too.....for me blogging is innovating not just copying and pasting.....so if u can create some unique text messages, then go ahead......otherwise I'll suggest u to drop the plan.....

Thanks Aditya for the suggestion.....:)

but yeah i can mix them , the copied and some unique ones in the posts , but totally unique content is a little difficult road to follow

Okk Aryaansh.....mix the copied ones with the unique ones.....that'll give the messages a fresh new avatar........I'll be great then..........

I think you mean twitter. I'd prefer one express themself in more than 140 characters on a blog.

Yes it can be.. as long as it comes out as a story actually.  If you meant to share forward smses, then I think yuo should refrain from doing it.

Yeah I am thinking of putting all my text message roll up online....

Why should i refrain from doing it ?

Please go ahead and do it, at your will. You are free to. You asked for opinion and I gave mine.

Why refrain? Yes for all the reasons. If you want to model your blog as a place for people to come looking for Forward smses, it is may be a good idea but there are already so many sites offering that.. and plus it wont have your original content. If you plan to still go ahead, you are free. But I would not recommend doing it. Think of coming up with something of your own and its much more wonderful :)
