How to send Text to only select group of contacts?

[G1_Edgar]

I've been trying to figure how to send one text message to a select group of people?

Example:
I just received a text message to a party.
I want to send that text to Jill, Bill, John, Joe, and Jack.

or

I want to create a Text Message for a Birthday Party.
Now I want to send them to Jill, Bill, John, Joe, and Jack.

Can someone guide on how to do this?
Thanks

very simple my friend. just long press the message then choose forward. then in the to column type the first 2 letters to get a contact. it will look like this. 212-555-5555, then type 2 more letters then it will look like this. 212-555-5555,212-555-6666, and so one till you get all the ones you want to send it to. then click send

I wrote this reply in another thread I started by accident lol.
Well I hope in the next update they can tweak messaging
Hoping for an easier way
Like instead of typing the first two letters of each contact's name, instead browse the contacts and select.

Thanks for the Reply.

When i first got my G1 i didn't know how to do that either and it was a pain in the butt to have to type all those people in but I did find an app called TextEasy which when installed takes all your contacts from your phonebook and allows you to put a check mark on the people you would like to send the message to.
