Is there a way to easily send/push some text from PC to phone?

Cell phone experts, I've been wanting a solution for this for a long time. Basically I need a way to easily push some text from PC to phone, for example, a long URL address or some text (shorter than 150 characters), to my mobile phone. What is the easiest way to do this? Gmail draft/notes is one way for sure. Is there a better solution? Extra points if text can be sent directly to phone's clipboard.

You could install Evernote (free) on both PC and phone (versions for Android, iOS, Blackberry, Windows Phone, and hp WebOS) . There's a "Web Clipper" extension for Chrome (maybe others) that will let you snip all or part of a web page directly to a note as well.

Under 150 characters, you could always tweet it to yourself.

Or email it to your SMS - almost all carriers have a way to send an email to SMS. With Telus, you just send an email to phonenumber@msg.telus.com - this will work with pretty much any phone that supports SMS, even old "dumb" phones.

The desktop chrome browser has a 'chrome to phone' plugin (android) but that works better for links. You right click something in chrome and go send to phone.

You can also use google drive for ios/android and open a doc at drive.google.com
