Send Twitter Updates via Text Message
August 7th, 2010 MobileFreak
Sending out tweets to your Twitter followers can be tough to do when you’re not near an Internet connection. One solution to this dilemma is to send tweets from your mobile phone by text message.
Let’s take a look at how to add your phone to your Twitter account:
- Text the word ‘Start’ to your country’s Twitter code. In the U.S., the code is 40404. Canada is 21212, the UK is 86444, and India is 53000.
- After receiving the text message response from Twitter, reply with your Twitter username (nothing else – just your username!).
- You will then be prompted (again, via text message) to reply with your Twitter password. So do it.
- Finally, text ‘OK’ as a final response, and you’re done!
You can now send Tweets by simply texting your message to the same Twitter short code you used above. No special words or characters are needed – your text message will be published as your Tweet.
Happy Tweeting!
