Airtel_twitter

Cashing on the phenomenal growth of Twitter since a year, Airtel is launching a third-party application that allows you to receive Twitter SMS updates directly onto your phone called “tweetSMS”.

Initially when Twitter was launched, they had SMS updates option and they were sending the users their replies and their friends updates via SMS but somewhere in 2008 Twitter stopped sending free SMS updates to users, and instead started teaming up with different service providers around the world to create an economical and easy way to get SMS updates on your phone.

Review : Twikini – A Light and Fast Twitter Client for Windows Mobile

twikini

You are active on Twitter and stuck with a heavy Twitter client on your windows mobile? Then here is a light weight, fast, reliable and appealing Twitter client for your windows mobile – Twikini.

I will just say ‘Wonderful’. As I have already told you, I am using a Win Mobile since some time and I have tried other Twitter clients too, but I will say Twikini is just the best. If you have tried the beta versions of Twikini and disappointed by its bugs and flaws, then you must give the final version 1.1 a try. Many things have been improved.

Some of the features of Twikini are:

  • Fast and ease of use
  • Unlike other Twitter apps its very light with user friendly interface
  • Simple and appealing
  • Twitpic Integration – So that you can embed pics along with your tweets taken either directly from your mobile camera or the pics stored on your mobile
  • Windows Media Player Integration
  • Ability to read public time line

Remember, recently we covered a video footage of the famous Symbian s60 Twitter Client – Gravity? Similarly, we have recorded a video of Twikini as well, so that you can see by yourself how fast, stable and simple this twitter client is. Just have a look at this video:

But the big news about this client is that, the developers at Ravensoft are also working towards a free version of this client, which is a simply an amazing news for all twitter addicts like me 🙂

I was lucky to be a part of the Private Beta of the client held very recently. So Here I am, with a first hand review of TweetS60 Twitter Client.

It has dedicated tabs for your main twitter timeline, @replies, Direct Messages’s, Your Favorites and Your Messages.
