Zong Lets You Bill Web Apps To Your Phone
The way it works is that you enter your mobile phone number to pay for something on the Web, maybe a virtual cowboy hat for 5 cents. Then you get a test message on your phone with a pin number. If you enter that pin number in a widget on the Web, the charge will be reflected in your cell phone bill.
Using mobile phones to bypas the issues that micro-payments still have on the Web is a smart move. Nobody wants to use a credit card for small purchases of a few penies or dimes, because the finance charges are too high. Whether anyone wants to pay even a few pennies for a Facebook app is a whole different matter.
