Examples:

contacts?: Send contacts? to see where your friends are. Plazes SMS will return a list of your contacts, their current location and if possible, distance and direction from where you are.

invite <name of friend> <mobile number of friend>: to invite someone while on the go. Your friend will get an SMS text message with your current location. Your friend will then get added to your contact list as soon as he/she replies.

The easy way to invite friends is to forward the contact right out of your phone's address book. If your phone supports sending business cards or vCards via SMS, just send the Plazes SMS the vCard of the friend you would like to invite.
- examples:
  - invite tanya 0049 173 12345678
  - invite john_doe +1 555 123-4567
