Is there any way to send message to skype user without using COM?
No, there is only an API for ActiveX (COM).
This service allows you to send messages to Skype users via SMS. You can send SMS from your app using Twilio or ZeepMobile. Unfortunately, this requires you to either pay for each message or have an ad in it.

I'm doing a tiny personal project involving an Arduino and a PHP backend. I want to send a push notification from the PHP backend to my Android phone using Firebase Cloud Messaging. This question is specifically about FCM - I don't want to use any other services like Blynk, etc. I also do not want to send the notification directly from the Arduino, but rather from the PHP backend.
Can I send a FCM notification to my phone without having to create an app to receive it? I'm logged in with a Google/Gmail account on the phone, and I have no need to target any other users than myself.
Can I send a FCM notification to my phone without having to create an app to receive it?
No, this is not possible. It would open users up to some pretty hefty abuse.
In order to receive your notifications, the user must have your app installed.
Mind you, this can be a pretty minimal app, since the default implementation of FCM already displays notifications to the user if the app is not active. So really all you have to do is create an empty app that includes the Firebase Cloud Messaging SDK.
I have created a small App that's able to receive Push Notifications from the FCM Console.
What i want to do now is to send a Push-Notifications to all Android Phones that got the app Installed using the API. And this is where i got completely lost.
Is there no way to send it to all Phones without collecting all the registration-ids?
Does this only work with the Console but not with the API?
thanx in advance
Sending a message to all the phones like what you do from the Firebase Web Console is only possible from the Web Console.
If you need this feature from the API you can submit a feature request:
https://firebase.google.com/support/contact/bugs-features/
Another possibility is to have all the client registering to a specific topic via FirebaseMessaging.getInstance().subscribeToTopic(topicName)
In this way you can send a message to the whole topic without collecting the registration-ids manually.
I am trying to send an email to some facebook account (example: my_username#facebook.com) via my PHP (core) web service. But, I am not able to receive the mail as a message in my facebook acccount. However, I am able to receive the mail through my gmail account.
As far as I know, we can check whether the mail is getting sent through my PHP script, but not it's successful delivery.
I have developed my webservice to interact between an Iphone app (with updated SDK for iOS 7) and my web server.
Now my questions are :
Do I need some specific headers or do I require some SMTP settings to sent mail to user's facebook message account?
Do I need to do something with the Iphone app?
Can I get the user's primary email address (which the user has used to signup on facebook) instead of my_username#facebook.com in Iphone app?
Precisely, do I need some change in my PHP script or in my Iphone app?
Please help me with your suggestions.
Thanks...!!!
You need to change your script. 99% certain it is a spam-filter at facebook that catches your email. PHP sent email using just the mail() function more often than not gets caught in spam filters.
There is a big rant (With usefull info on solutions) on the horror of sending email here
What is the best way to set up a system that checks for events daily and sends messages via email, Twitter, SMS, and possibly Facebook? Keep in mind, that I do not have access to a web server with root access (Using Rackspace Cloud). Would PHP have a solution for this? Would there be any drawbacks to using Google App Engine and Python?
If you are using Google App Engine with Python you could use "Cron" to schedule a task to automatically run each day.
GAE also allows you to send emails, just a little tip: make sure that you 'invite' the email address used to send mail to the application as an administrator so that you can programatically send emails etc.
I want to know the PHP coding for sending the messages to the mobile port.
Try searching first?
SMS from web application
To send sms from the php to the mobile you need to use any mobile solution provider like clickatell.com
They provides all the api details and sample code though which you can send sms.
