Nokia Mobile Talk

It was not long ago that the S60 community was aching for some good Twitter clients for their mobile phones, now it seems like we have an army of them. First we had some J2ME clients that filled the void, among some of those were the front runners like Twibble now in version 0.98 with Twitpic support and Snaptu. Then came Tommi Laukkanen’s Twim, another Java client, which runs quite smoothly and even has Twitpic support.
Side Note: Tommi also created a client for the Identica platform called Mobidentica

Then about a month ago two mobile giants entered the mobile scene Gravity and Twittix the two native Nokia clients. And all of a sudden tons of people were tweetering around the globe. These last two clients have made tweetering a true delight and even give a destkop feel ala Tweetdeck. Now are choices are plentiful so just download the clients and give them a try, some will like Gravity, yet some will like Twittix, and still some may like Twibble but the important thing is that we have a true twitter programming democracy upon us, so let us all enjoy the moment and Twitter on my friends.
