Getting in Touch with Twitter
There’s a web service out there that some of you may have heard of before, but some others might not. I guess that’s the reason for me posting this. I’m using Twitter again, and my vacation from using this service has come to an end.
Twitter is a service that allows someone to sign up for a free account and let others know what they’re doing, or tell others about things. They are given 140 characters to say what they want to say and it updates all of their friends/followers. This is a very basic idea, but what makes this service the best one out there is that the simple to use API has been used to it’s fullest abilities. You can update your Twitter status via their website, an application, or text message. You can get updates from your friends using those methods also.
Let me just say how I have things set up, and you’ll know why it’s so great. When I send an update to my account it updates my twitter status, facebook status, AIM status, MSN status, XFire status, Yahoo status, GTalk status, and queedium contact page status. All instantly. You could have it do even more if you wanted to. Sign up, give it a try. Add me as a friend.
