interactive games

[millionyears]

hey all, im wondering if any of you use the text messaging on your phone often for interactive tv shows, like voting for american idol or other games/contests... i dont really do the idol thing, but i have been using my txt messaging lately to play video iq on fuse which is an interactive music trivia/puzzle game.. anyone know it? anyway, is this something that hasn't caught on just yet or do a lot of people use their phones in this way?

I don't watch any shows that you vote for things on. I'm one of the last of a dying breed, one who still enjoys scripted television.

i hardly watch any tv personally but i find the whole "voting during a tv show" thing totally absurd. they charge you .50€ for that message for basically nothing. and then theres the thing that every time i see one of those shows and the number of votes i see a lot of 50 cent pieces fall into the pocket of the hack who made up the crappy show.
