Twitter vs. NowThen – Cast Your Vote
February 16, 2007 by Lisa Oshima | Social MediaIf you’re into Twitter, try Nowthen. Nowthen is the newest brainchild from the folks at Blinkx. It’s everywhere messaging like Twitter, but besides written updates/broadcasts, you can also send pictures from your mobile phone using MMS. You can set up privacy features to use it with specific groups of friends or with the world. You can also get it to send you notifications via SMS/ MMS on your mobile phone (if you’ve got an unlimited messaging plan) or your Nowthen mailbox. I’m curious to know what Twitter fans think. If you try it, post a comment and let me know what you think.
One thing I think is particularly cool is that they’re already starting to think globally. There are separate numbers you can MMS your NowThen photos to depending on whether you’re in the US or UK.
