Application For Twitter

A common question I see is what application to install to use Twitter on their S60 Nokia phones. The answer is twibble. You can even use your phone’s GPS for twibble to include your location with your tweets. You can supposedly insert photos thru twibble, but I got errors trying. I’ll tell you more about tweeting with photos so keep reading. Download twibble mobile.

Using the S60 Browser For Twitter

If you do not like Twibble, a better way to send tweets is accessing m.slandr.net through the browser. Update: I now prefer to use dabr.co.uk because it seems to have more options and looks prettier. You can send tweets, view replies, and check direct messages here as well. This is for you if you don’t want to bother installing anything on your phone. Alternatively, you can use m.twitter.com to keep it simple and don’t need to see replies nor direct messages.

How to Add Photos with Tweets

Add twitpic as an upload site in Shozu. Take a photo, add a title for the picture, then send it to twitpic using Shozu. Here’s a sample tweet with a photo inserted through Shozu.
