Twitter - Getting more rubbish

August 19th, 2008

Dammit, you find something useful and then it stops being quite so useful - Which bit? Twitter, used to let you receive updates from people you were following by SMS text, which was handy when you worked out how to stop them and only get specific updates from people you actually wanted to receive updates from.

Now they’ve stopped it unless you want to pay for the service. Fair enough I guess, but I doubt too many people want to pay to receive these random updates. Nice, but not essential. Much like Jelly Tots.
