Those of you with a Twitter account might like to know that All About N-Gage has succumbed to the hype and jumped on the bandwagon. You can follow our latest adventures at the address twitter.com/allaboutngage. Alternatively you can follow our news items through AAN's traditional RSS feed.

Can someone experienced in Twitter matters solve a mystery?

Someone signed up to follow the AAN twitter within a few minutes of setting it up. We hadn't told anyone about this or linked to it in any way, how on earth did they find out about it? 😊

Couldn't find you at first by entering just allaboutngage in the search. had to actually click on the link in the article. not sure what happened there.

Micky, it should appear in the search results now. I think Twitter takes some time to include new accounts in their database.

Who was that someone?

I remember hearing about AAN coming onto Twitter via the AAS Twitter feed and followed you right away.

Alsiladka, it wasn't you.

It was literally just a couple of minutes after I'd set up the account, before I'd told anyone about it, there was someone following it.

I don't know how they could have possibly found our twitter, we didn't even appear in the search engine at that point.

They seem to have stopped following now so I assume it was some kind of glitch...

This might be a useful link for you, it's written by an N96 owner:

...and as many have pointed out, you can twitter via the twitter.com website through the phone's web browser. This is especially easy to do on the 5800 as it has such a large screen and virtual QWERTY keyboard.
