Over the weekend I threw together Dancer::Plugin::SMS, which uses Adam Kennedy's SMS::Send to easily send SMS messages.

Using it from an app can be as easy as:

sms $destination, $message
# or with named params:
sms(to => $destination, message => $message);

Configuration for which SMS::Send driver to use, login details etc are all read from your Dancer app's config, so if you decide to change provider, you need only update your content, and you're done. There are SMS::Send drivers for a whole host of online SMS text messaging providers so you'll likely find one for whatever service you plan to use; if not, writing one is pretty trivial. There's even ones for using a phone connected to your machine, if that's what you plan to do.
