So what do you do if you’d like to revert back to messages passed via SMS from several months back? Scrounge through your phone’s folders? What if you regularly delete such correspondences to save space? You’re left with no lasting records. Well, a service called Dexrex has now introduced support for BlackBerry to enable QWERTY bandits to automatically store SMS messages to be accessed at any point in the future with “any Internet-enabled device.” The more you talk with your fingers, the better it seems Dexrex will serve your archival needs.
Based in Amherst, Massachusetts and begun as a student project by CEO Derek Lyman and CTO Richard Tortora at the University of Massachusetts in 2005, Dexrex has for some time offered a message backup storage service for Yahoo Messenger, Skype, AIM, Microsoft Live Messenger, and Google Talk. It has grown to become operable through numerous chat clients supported via downloadable software extensions. Now it arrives BlackBerry compatible.
