Send Push notifications without installing an app

image

Have you ever woken up in the middle of the night, drenched in sweat, wondering how everyone seems to be able to send push notifications, but YOU can’t? While medication can help, consider something much more entertaining: meetings.twocanoes.com & a pass.

A website and a pass? For push notifications? IMPOSSIBLE! Hold on, come back here. Take your hand off the door. Let me explain. I know that your teacher long ago taught you that you needed an app on your iPhone to receive push notifications. That is true. But only partially true. Sort of like how the “people” elect the President based on an “election”.

You see, other things can receive push notifications as well. For example, consider passbook. That thing that has your Starbucks card in it. It is called Passbook, and while getting coffee is a key component to leading a happy life, Passbook can do so much more. Tea, for instance. Specifically, Chai Tea Latte at Starbucks by Oprah. Tastes exactly like a Chai Tea Latte, but costs 10 cents more. 10 cents more of awesome.

Passes are beacon-enabled as well, and beacons are what pay our bills. So consider this: For the cost of a few Oprah Latte’s, you get a beacon that never runs out of battery. Go get one at http://store.twocanoes.com/. The beacon, not the latte.

So head over to http://meetings.twocanoes.com and create a pass:

Then send yourself a push notification. And get some sleep. You look like crap.
