Proposed to add mobile phone messages, to trade bitcoin.

Agreed.  More than once I have wanted to add a message.  I'll check out that blog.  Thank you.

There's a feature on blockchain.info which allows you to send public messages.

As for the the Satoshi message see here: http://www.righto.com/2014/02/ascii-bernanke-wikileaks-photographs.html

blockchain.info will only show on blockchain.info

The process is explained at the end of that blog post you linked to:

How to put your own message in the blockchain
It's pretty easy to put your own 20-character message into the blockchain. The following steps explain how.

    Take your 20-character string and convert it to hex. E.g. in Python:

    'http://righto.com/bc'.encode('hex')

    Convert the resulting hex string to an address. An easy way is online: https://blockchain.info/q/hashtoaddress/your hex value yields 1AXJnNiDijKUnY9UJZkV5Ggdgh36aWDBYj.
    Send bitcoins to that address and your message will show up in the blockchain when your transaction gets mined. Important: those bitcoins will be lost forever, so send a very small amount, like 10 cents. My test message can be seen at the end of blk00113 here.

How do you do this?

Like when Satoshi put the legendary mark on the first bitcoin block:

"Times 03/Jan/2009 Chancellor on brink of second bailout for banks."

See it here:  https://blockchain.info/tx/4a5e1e4baab89f3a32518a88c31bc87f618f76673e2cc77ab2127b7afdeda33b?show_adv=true

How do you put notes on Bitcoins you send to someone?

Like "Hey its me!" or "Great work" (I've wanted to do this on donations to podcasts like Coinsider This or Lets Talk Bitcoin)

Any way to make sure the recipient sees it?

Thanks
