Following on from my post the other day, it’s now official, and Electricpig.co.uk has confirmed it (thanks Ben!) – if you are on Vodafone, you’ll now be able to send and receive tweets for free.
Going forward, the sending of tweet-texts will become part of your bundle, but for the first few weeks at least, its all free. Receiving will be permanently free – which kinda breaks the concept that it’s better to give than receive, because giving costs 🙂
The shortcode to text your Twitter SMS updates is apparently 86444, but before you get in to that bunch-a-shenanigans, you need to activate your number on Twitter. For those not on Voda (like me), we can also be hopeful of some tweet-love over the coming months – let’s hope sooner rather than later 🙂
