For e.g.

- Sending all type of Alerts
-  Managing and Deleting Subscriptions
- Creating custom pages and templates to send different alerts
and do on.
Example codes are available at this link. Any programmer can make use of them and create its implementation.
You can also ask BusinessAlerts admin for creation of the required interface with your site and they will gladly provide any service required.</description><link>http://www.alertsdesktop.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=4&amp;t=81</link></item><item><title>Android Mobile App available for Android OS v.1.6  to v.2.2</title><description>Android Mobile application is now available for deployment for all Android Platforms starting from Android OS version 1.6 (Donut) upto the Current version 2.2 (Froyo).
