The service is somewhat similar to sites like [Twitter][2] or [3jam][3], but has a cleaner interface and is somewhat easier to use.
The signup process is painless, just pick a username, fill out some basic info, and enter your phone numbers. Zemble then sends you a text message with a confirmation number. Enter that number on the sign up page and you're done.
From there you can create your profile and invite friends. Zemble offers integration with MySpace and Facebook so you can batch email your friends from either social network. You can also import your address book from GMail, Yahoo, MSN or Hotmail. I'm sure you friends will love the spam invites.
Once you have a group of friends set up, the messaging process is pretty straight forward. Say you want to invite everyone in your group to Thanksgiving dinner, just go to the "My Zembles" page and create a new Zemble.
Once you've given your Zemble a name and description, Zemble.com will send you a text message with address for that Zemble. Then you add that address to your phone contacts, for instance thanksgiving@zemble.com, and whenever you want to send a message to that Zemble group, just send an SMS message to the address and Zemble will forward the message on to your friends.
To respond to a Zemble just sent a message to re@zemble.com and the message creator will get your reply. To reply to everyone that got a message, use the same address but begin your replay with an exclamation point.
Zemble has a nice feature set and if you can convince your friends to join it might be a good way to batch message invites.
