I'm new at this, but I'm in the process of making an iPhone and/or Mac OS X app (or webapp) and apparantly I need an API and a key (which I have) but I don't really know what to do with them. Here are the directions I found

RPC Method: send
parameter type definition

api_key | string | The API Key provided by site
phone | string | The ten digit cell phone number
date | string/iso8601 The date to send the text message
text | string | The text message
timezone | string/int | The time zone offset from GMT/UTC
(4 = EDT, 5 = EST, 5 = CDT, 6 = CST)

Sample XMLRPC Request
<?xml version="1.0"?>
<methodCall>
<methodName>send</methodName>
<params>
<param><value><string>API_KEY_PROVIDED_BY_SITE</string></value></param>
<param><value><string>5551231234</string></value></param>
<param><value><string>2008-10-01 12:00:00</string></value></param>
<param><value><string>Test Message from ODF</string></value></param>
<param><value><int>4</int></value></param>
<param><value><string></string></value></param>
</params>
</methodCall>

I'm not sure I understand all of this... any ideas?
