Twitter fans across the globe have really taken to the value-added option of updating their account via SMS. This however has been denied to Irish users because of ridiculous international SMS charges thus far.  But it appears that the problem has been resolved  thanks to the efforts of a self-described nerd (and a good friend of mine) James Kennedy.

James (MD of Smartnote) has come up with a solution via his Agtweet service that gives Irish based Twitterers the option to set up Irish numbers which now lets them update their account by text message, often for free.

There are 80 people using Kennedy’s service right now, from school kids to technology experts. Users can update their account using a smart phone such as an iPhone but if you have a more basic model then this service is a handy way to keep the Internet up to speed with your activities.
