This made me laugh. It's a news story detailing how 'virtual text friends' will help kids with asthma. 'Max' will become their virtual text 'buddy' and send them messages like (and I quote):
"Hav U taken Ur inhaler yet?"
"Yo dude, it's Max reminding u 2 take ur inhaler."
Now, this is all well and good (and very, very sad), and I'm wondering how it could be spread to further areas. Such as:
"Yo, Squirrell, have u got up 4 work yet?"
"Havnt u got a clan match?"
"Dude, ur gf needs servicing!"
"Its time 4 u 2 hav anthr beer!"
I'm looking forward to your suggestions.

Secondly, this is probably the last update I'm going to do for IAmCal.com - thank you for your time, it's been fun. I'll have to convince Cal that IAmCalAndHeIsMatt.com is a good idea.

See y'all =]

And why not other illnesses?
You could have a little smoke alarm on your phone that detected when you lit up:
"Oi u! Put tht fag out!"
Or
"Do some excersize U fat git!"
Nice =]
