How to Make Twitter Work on Your Phone
Twitter is an online social network that lets you share short, 140-character messages with other users. Those individuals who want to be notified of direct messages and tweets from certain individuals on their cell phones can sign up for Twitter's text messaging service. When you link your cell phone number to this service, you receive a text message each time you receive a private message from another user or a user you subscribe to for mobile updates sends a tweet. You can set up Twitter for your phone in a few steps.
