I have been using Remind (used to be called Remind101) for the past three years (in fact their CEO even wrote a nice blurb for my book which is coming out in a few months). Students today do not use email very often, but cannot text enough to save their lives! So when I started using Remind I found that the amount of homework among my standard (non AP/IB) students improved dramatically. If you have students who do not have smartphones, the service also allows emails. Additionally you can send a message to as few as three students.
This is a blog site created by two high school teachers of economics to help ourselves and other similar content teachers teach both the content and integrate technology into the classroom.

Remind to Text Your Students
