Mr Deng's IT News Collection: SHARES in MGM Wireless surged almost 70 per cent today after the Adelaide software company announced the largest deal in its history. The agreement will see the West Australian Education Department roll out two MGM products — School Star and Outreach+ — across its 800-plus public schools from the beginning of term four this year. School Star, a Facebook-like app that allows access to only registered parents and carers, provides messaging technology for the purpose of announcements, absenteeism alerts, and other functions. It is integrated with Outreach+, a service that automatically switches to SMS if a parent hasn’t installed the app.
