Use Twitter

Twitter is a social network allowing you to write your own and read others' status updates in messages not exceeding 140 characters. The status updates are displayed in your profile and are received by people who follow you. You decide who you want to receive status updates from. Follow these instructions to use Twitter.
Before you can use Twitter, you need a Twitter profile. If you don't have a profile, you can create one at www.twitter.com.

You need to set up your phone for internet to use this function. Click here for information on how to set up your phone for internet.

If you don't want to use the Twitter application, you can use the phone's browser. Open the browser and connect to http://mobile.twitter.com.
