Assuming that, in the absence of data connection, you can
use the now old text messages, just remember that for Twitter you need to
activate your mobile phone number on Twitter.com.
Just log-in to the Twitter home page, then go to 'Settings' and enter in the 'Mobile'. Once you enter the
mobile phone number in the 'Enable Twitter via SMS', you must click
on 'Activate Phone'.
Once this is done, you should receive a text message
indicating that your phone has been activated. You should also see the new
settings on the web page allowing you to enable or disable text notifications.
Now, to use Twitter, just type a text and send to 40404.
If you are more fans of Facebook , do not worry. You can
update your status via SMS and more. You can subscribe to updates from friends
and even use Facebook chat. Again, to access these features, you must connect
your phone to your Facebook account.
Once logged on Facebook.com, you will need to enter in 'Account Settings'. Then in the 'To Mobile' you would enter
your number after clicking on 'Add a phone number' (you will be asked
to re-enter your password for security reasons). Then you have to select the
country and operator. Once this is done, follow the on-screen instructions to
complete the operation.
In the end, you will receive a confirmation number on your
mobile phone. Enter the number on the same page mentioned above. You should
then receive a text message confirming that the phone has been activated.
Now, update your status, simply write a text and send it to
32665.
Useful tools to stay in touch with several people
simultaneously when there is no available access to the Internet. A text
