SMS Posting Works, Now to Configure E-Mail

Published by tomfurt at 3:20 am under Trip Prep

So that last post was from our Twitter stream - this is how I hope to do a lot of posting from Kenya and Tanzania - post to Twitter from a mobile phone and then have those posts appear here either individually or as a daily digest thanks to Alex King’s Twitter Tools Wordpress plugin. We will probably not have a computer with us (still a bit of a debate, actually, but the anti-computer forces are ahead by several lengths), so we’ll be reliant on net cafes and the kindness of strangers to blog and post photos, though hopefully Twitter will helpĀ  by allowing us to post “we’re still alive” by text message.

All you Twitter power users can actually set your mobile phones to receive our updates in real time, though they are likely to be posted in the middle of the night US time.
