About the Application:

The @cric Application runs on three core technologies:

1)      TXTWEB SMS Engine: Intuit's SMS Platform for Mobile App Developers.

2)      Google App Engine, which lets you run your web applications on Google's infrastructure. I used the Datastore Java API of Google App Engine for storing data, which is a schema-less object datastore, with a query engine and atomic transactions.

3)      Google Web Toolkit, a development toolkit for building and optimizing complex browser-based applications."
