Uk Twitter message forwarder

Posted in business, ideas at 6:03 pm by coldclimate

The UK really is the home of innovation, really it is.  It’s not been a week since Twitter announced they are not going to be able to provide an SMS service in the UK (I’d not even finished my blog post about Orange missing a huge opertunity here) and already a small UK firm has stepped in to fill the gap.

Tweeteroo is run by those crazy kids at Senokian, and run a service whereby your Direct Messages from Twitter will be forwarded to your mobile for a few pence (probably just the service charge I think).  As I only ever had DM’s directed to my mobile and each and every tweet (because that would be just silly), it replaces exactly the functionality that I lost, probably for less than a fiver a month (I’m not that popular).

To sign up you’ll need a code - but give “coldclimate” a go - there are 10 up for grabs.

Impressive work Jake and team.
