Spiceworks
Spiceworks covers the Microsoft 365 outage from the help desk's side.
A side-by-side editorial comparison of TextMagic and DoneDone — release velocity, themes, recent moves, and the top alternatives to consider.
A steady SEO blog on SMS basics, with the occasional ecommerce integration walkthrough.
Textmagic's feed is a marketing blog rather than a changelog. It alternates between definitional content on SMS, MMS and RCS, feedback-request templates, and platform-specific setup guides for Shopify and now WooCommerce. Regulatory coverage appears when it affects senders, as with the ACMA Sender ID rules post in July. Nothing in the window announces a product change.
DoneDone's editor gets tables, spreadsheet paste and text colors.
DoneDone's November 13 release adds tables to the text editor, with direct paste from Google Sheets or Excel, plus text sizes, colors, highlighting and strikethrough. It follows the November 2 rework of Scheduled Tasks and October's bulk checklist entry and single email connection for several Mailboxes. Late summer brought workflow automations and custom fields.

The ecommerce walkthroughs are the most product-adjacent thread here - Shopify in May, WooCommerce now - suggesting Textmagic sees order-notification automation on storefront platforms as its clearest use case and is building search coverage around it one platform at a time. The rest is top-of-funnel material aimed at buyers who do not yet know what an SMS API is for.
Expect the platform-guide series to continue onto further storefront or CRM integrations, and further compliance explainers as regional sender rules change; product releases would need a different feed to be visible.

After the bigger summer releases, DoneDone has moved into steady polish of daily actions: replies, checklists, schedules and now formatting. Each release removes friction for small help-desk teams rather than adding a new module.
More small usability updates on email and tasks are likely; the entries give no sign of another large module soon.
