Twittering on the go!

Posted by: Grace In: Web

Do you travel a lot?? or don’t have access to a computer most of the time?? Then this post is specially for you..
There are many tools available for tweeting from mobile. The ones I mostly use are..

  1. Twitter’s mobile site: m.twitter.com
    Use your phone’s default browser, Opera Mini or Opera Mobile to post your tweets. You are only charged for your WAP/ GPRS uses. You can tweet, catch on with the tweets of people you follow, add new tweople to your following list.
    Cons - You can’t delete your tweet, check on the replies, search for people.
  2. Fring: A mobile application [compatible with Symbian 8, 9.1, 9.2, Windows Mobile 5 & 6 and UIQ handsets.]
    You can send your tweets directly thru’ the twitter contact in fring or gtalk twitter bot. You are charged for your GPRS/ Wi-Fi/ 3G usage.
    Download it here.
  3. Cellity Tweeter: Another mobile application. Other than tweeting you can check your timeline, public timeline, direct messages, list your friends & followers and featured people.
    You are only charged for the data transfer.
    Cons - Is a bit slow.
    Download it here.
  4. IM applications: Like Nimbuzz, Morange etc..
    Use the gtalk twitter bot to post your tweets.

Now you might be wondering why I haven’t listed the popular ‘txt’ method. Simple, because at present BSNL West is not supported :P

On a serious note if your operator is supported by the various twitter short codes like the ones for US, Canada, India; you can simply tweet by sending an sms.

As for now follwing Indian operators are supported.

Would be of some help if you could also list out the Indian phone providers who support twitter… You could check out their forum/ help site, i remember seeing it there.
