Twitter: Good On Dumb Phones, Too

Mar 10, 2008

If you've never used Twitter before, you might wonder why everyone likes it so much. Here's perhaps the most coherent, simplest explanation I've seen so far:

One thing Twitter has going for it over many services, including Jaiku-what I use primarily-is that it works on phones that just have SMS. You don't need a fancy phone, but if you opt for receiving messages via SMS, you might want a larger or unlimited SMS plan with your operator. You can also do it with a simple web-enabled phone as well.

There are also clients that support Twitter, such as the one Cellity provides called Tweeter. (Note that Cellity sponsors our Mobile Technology Weblog)
