Using TweetStas to generate statistics graphs for my Twitter account, I’ve managed to find out analysis of interfaces that I’ve used to tweet.
Out of the 831 tweets updated since May 2008:
- 371 tweets from TwitterFox (Firefox plugin)
- 258 tweets from mobile web (m.twitter.com)
- 69 tweets from TwitPic
Of all the interfaces I used, mobile web, TwitPic, txt (SMS) and Fring are from mobile. I actually tweet using SMS when I’m not in Malaysia. Check out my previous post on how to tweet from mobile.
As shown, I have quite a lot of text tweets twitted from phone (31%) using the mobile web, and never the less, about 8.3% of pictures posted from phone via TwitPic.
Personally, Twitter is meant to be a mobile companion for me, such as for the following events:
- simply want to let my friends know where I am or what I’m doing
- want to hao lian (show-off) the food that I’m eating
- a different way to express “I’m bored”
- vent out bosong-ness (grumble la hehe)
- thank someone
Most of the time, time factor is important in sharing a message. At a particular moment, when I’m in the mood to tell something, then instant mobile twitting is definitely more shiok :p
Even when I have nothing to twit, I’m also used to accessing m.twitter.com every now and then, just to check out latest tweets received. The law of kepo-ness kicks in.
But as similar to all other social networking goodies, there ought to be a community of yours, in order to enjoy the usage. And yes, most of my followers are active Twitter users, especially from the mobile interface.
So, how do you tweet?
