Samsung Stabs SMS In The Heart, Ports ChatON Messaging Client To The Web

Samsung is quietly killing text messages. The company's cross-platform messaging app launched last October on the Android Market and then came to the App Store in January. But Samsung is looking to replace text messaging on more than just Android and iOS devices. It wants to kill text messages dead and just released a web version of the messaging client that should work on most feature phones and computers. This wide-scale launch has been in the pipeline the whole time. Samsung made it very clear when it announced ChatON that it will be a cross-platform service. Now, with the web app, the crusade is seemingly complete. ChatON users can easily communicate using either their platform's app or just a web browser. Accounts are linked, so no matter what device you're rocking, you'll be available. See ya later, text messages!
