Twitter is a micro-blogging service which allows user to send and receive messages known as tweets. Many tweet for many several reasons. Some tweet to update their friends on what’s going around them and sharing cool stuff, like where to shop. Celebrities tweet to update their fans on their new upcoming events and activities. Companies also tweet to get to their customers. And all that for FREE!
In order to tweet, one must be able to be online or has mobile connectivity. I use Tweetdeck to send and receive my tweets. Tweetdeck is an application build using Flash Air and has recently released a new version which enables multiple twitter account. Good for those tweeting for work and personal.
I also use TwitterFox to tweet while browsing the internet. Twitter fox runs on Mozilla Firefox as an Extension. I started tweeting using TwitterFox before switching to Tweetdeck.
Technology is God. Now with the technology of Blackberry and iPhone, one can tweet on the go. Unfortunately I’m not a fan. Lucky me Tiny Twitter is available for Java enabled phones. Works perfectly well with my Sony Ericsson S500i.
Internet/GPRS charges may apply if you’re using this application. Oh yeah, if you’re not on plan, you may wanna check the UI setting first before you update your tweets. I learned that the hard way. Lol…
So which Twitter are you?
