I have done a simple but needed update:

- removed mtgox (did that awhile back)
- added kraken and bitfinex
- added a poll to let users request a country for support

is there a way to get an average?  what happens if i just send "btc"  would it use the bitcoinaverage rate?

There are a few 'indexes' out there (such as the coindesk index) that basically average all of the exchanges out. I guess Bitcoinaverage leverages something like this.

I could have it default, if someone just sends "btc" to use bitcoinaverage.

I would like anyone's opinion on this:

I'm thinking of changing up the code to allow the user to specify different currency pairs (not just btc/usd).

This would make more to text, but gives the user more information.

IE: If you want the DOGE/BTC price, you could send "doge btc exchange" to the number and it would reply back with the price.

Feedback welcome, I'll be doing some dev on it over the next few days/weeks, as well!

The site is: http://smscoincheck.com/

Mainly geared toward USA (for now). Simply send a text message and get the current price back.
