TweetDeck is my favourite desktop Twitter client on my Windows 7 and they have just released a new update for it. I just updated my client and it is now the latest built, version 0.32.
Added a few new features like integrating with the new Twitter List feature, able to linked with LinkedIn, new Twitter’s Retweet function, Geolocation and more.
Facebook just released its app for two of the Nokia E series phone, the E71 and E72. This is a good move because E72 just released lately and it’s quite a powerful device.
The app allows you to do some simple Facebook stuff like updating your status, adding friends, sending messages, browsing and uploading photos and more. Unfortunately there’s no Chat feature like on the iPhone.
Feeling a little bit disappointed because they online release app for the E71 and E72 but not the others Nokia S60 v3 phone like N95 (I use a N95 8GB). Some people tried to install it on a E75 and it works, so you might wanna give it a try too.
I love touring tech company offices, just the fact that I didn’t really been into any of it because I am not living in San Fransisco or anywhere near the Cupertino Loop or Mountain View. I just love to see people’s office, it’s my interest. Ha!
Some people behind Twitter just released a bunch of photos of their new headquarter. Check it out.
Macs, I love.
Big canteen or is it discussion hall? I see no food around.
Have you ever heard about The Great Firewall of China? It’s quite scary, at first it was Youtube, BBC that were blocked and now, the list goes on, eg. Yahoo! Hong Kong, Blogger, Twitter, Facebook, Plurk and more.
The blocked Twitter, Facebook and other social networking site, then the Chinese themselves release clones of these site. One of which is Renren (formerlly Xiaonei) which is a Facebook-clone using the old Facebook theme.
The latest finding is Komoo, a Twitter-clone. It just look exactly the same as the Twitter interface that was two years back when it first launched.
Since I got nothing to do and I was so free, I went to sign up for an account at there, but for sure that I wouldn’t use it because Twitter is still the best for me.
I used to update my Twitter status on the go with Mobile Web Twitter, it’s a lot cheaper than sending an international text message to the USA to update your tweet. However, I have stopped using the mobile Twitter for quite some times already after I’ve found out about Malaysia Twitter SMS Gateway.
It’s not official from Twitter but created by some local avid Twitterer. There’s actually two of them and you can save your cost by just sending a text message to a local phone number.
S2Twit.com is the first Malaysia Twitter SMS Gateway and it’s up for quite some times already. There’s no integration with Twitter, you need send a text message to register your phone number with your username and password, then you can tweet with your phone’s text messaging system. It was a 018# number and they have updated to a new 016# number 2 months ago, which I believe it’s a Digi number.
So, it’s saving a lot of your money by sending text messages. If you are a DiGi Super SMS user, you can send unlimited tweets like me.
Just recently, I found out a new service called gladlyCast. It was from Singapore and they have just added a number for Malaysia user. It’s has nice graphic and easy registering on it’s site. It works with the Twitter Integration so it isn’t like registering your username and password into the database like S2Twit.com.
If you are asking me which is better, I got no comment on this, because the two do same thing. Depends on which telco you are using, if you uses Maxis then you go for gladlyCast, if you are on DiGi, then go for S2Twit.com.
Looking at the above Tweets, you can notice the difference about the Tweet where it was sending from.
This means that gladlyCast is more developed than S2Twit.com. Anyway, I am using both of the service because I owns two different number of different telco, I use S2Twit.com more because it’s 016 and the SMS rate is cheaper. =)
