Google, Twitter, and voice-messaging company SpeakNow have put their brightest minds together to provide a way for people with limited or no Internet access to tweet about the events occurring in Egypt: @speak2tweet. Here’s how it works:
[A]nyone can tweet by simply leaving a voicemail on one of these international phone numbers (+16504194196 or +390662207294 or +97316199855) and the service will instantly tweet the message using the hashtag #egypt. No Internet connection is required. People can listen to the messages by dialing the same phone numbers or going to twitter.com/speak2tweet.
Not even a Twitter account is required to tweet using this service. All you or someone who wants to share news needs to do is pick up a phone, dial the number, and get the words out. [Speak to Tweet via Google]
