You will need:
- A cellphone
- a database (if you don't want to rewrite the page continuously).
- a php email piping script.
- an email address to send the message to.

Step1
Setup a script to forward your message to the database, this will be your email piping script: (Click here for instructions on how to parse the incoming mail.

Step 2
Create a mail forwarder that points to this script

Step3
Send an email from your phone to that email address

Step 4
Call the value of this message from your database into your website content.

Note:
The database you use can be mysql, mssql, a text file, etc.
