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)
