sending location with actual position is already there. Just start function called Share -> Share map center -> and bottom OK, or you can add 'Insert coordinates as URL' which allow then simply show location from SMS message

Yeah, I have been using the Share functionality to update my position on a map, so my parents can follow me on my holidays. I have a computer with an old cellphone connected, using gammu to read the SMSs, and some python scripts to parse them. If this could be automated from Locus somehow that would be nice, but it will cost a lot of SMSes :-)
