Google, Twitter reactivate Speak2Tweet for Syrians
- Syria: Saturday, December 01 - 2012 at 03:37
Google and Twitter have announced the reactivation of a voice-tweet programme to allow Syrians affected by the shutdown of the internet to get messages out, AFP has reported. Google's David Torres acknowledged that many Syrians may not be able to use the Speak2Tweet service because telecoms networks in the war-ravaged country are also functioning poorly. "But those who might be lucky enough to have a voice connection can still use Speak2Tweet by simply leaving a voicemail," he said. "No Internet connection is required, and people can listen to the messages by dialling the same phone numbers or going to twitter.com/speak2tweet," Torres said.
