Twitter Promises Two-Way SMS For Australia
Who knows how this came about – maybe it’s coincidental but it looks like Twitter is revisiting sending SMS’s here in Australia.
Life hacker posted an article about it yesterday (21/2)
From the Twitter blog Feb 20 2008 :
Our recently hired Director of Mobile Business Development, Kevin Thau is working hard to bring full Twitter SMS to your country. In fact, he’s in Europe right now trying to replicate our success with Bell Mobility. Stay tuned for more support all over the globe as we make progress. And fear not Australia—you’re on the list too!
Most excellent!
As much as you guys blast Telstra for not helping the Australian technology scene as much as they could, something that most of us American’s believe in is the power of private industry to just leave governments in the dust when it comes to technology.
I hope that Twitter is successful in spades!
