How do we get live content like cricket scores, stock quotes etc using the gateway?
eg user types stock sony and he should get the current sony stock quote, same with other stuff like horoscopes etc.
Thanks!

Hi Suvinay,

You can configure NowSMS to issue an HTTP request when it receives an SMS message. This HTTP request can be a script that runs on another web server (ASP, PHP, or other scripting language), and your script can then interpret the text of the SMS message and return back a response.

The following links talk about this process:
