The city of New York has broken yet another record – this time around, Twitter co-founder and CEO Jack Dorsey announced that New York City alone contains more Twitter users within its walls compared to any other city in the world – while playing host to the second most Twitter developers worldwide. Of course, the majority of New Yorkers would not be surprised at this news considering the city boasts a population of 8 million folks not to mention carrying the statistic of having one of the highest concentrations of smartphone addicts in the world.

As for the lesser known fact of having the second highest number of Twitter developers in the world, that certainly comes across as a shock to some (a pleasant one, I might add). I guess mayor Bloomberg’s vision for New York City to be the technological hub of the world has some bearing, but it will need to do far more than that to usurp the Silicon Valley.

If you’re a native New Yorker, are you part of the Twitter revolution yet? If not, what the heck are you waiting for?

While I don’t have any official figures, it’s safe to say that most people who use Twitter probably access the social network via an app on their smartphones. But there probably is a significant amount of folks out there who are accessing Twitter via a mobile web browser on their feature phones, and sending updates through text messages (yes, in case you didn’t know, Twitter lets you post updates via SMS).

Previously, these users were limited to only sending text updates to the service. There was no way for them to upload photographs via their phones. Well, it looks like things have changed, as today Twitter has announced that users can now share photographs via texting. All users have to do is attach the photograph to their text, and send it to Twitter like they’ve been doing with text messages all this while.

At the moment, only a few carriers support this function in the US: AT&T, Verizon Wireless and Cellular South – but you can expect it to be available on other networks in the future. How many of you are using text messages to update your Twitter account?

Good news for folks who don’t use English as a main language – Twitter has announced on its blog that it now supports an additional five new languages, bringing up the total number of supported languages to 17. Twitter is now available in Simplified and Traditional Chinese, Hindi, Tagalog and Malay. With last week’s announcement of having over 100 million active users on the service, the availability of these new languages will definitely help the service reach out to even more users.

Also, what’s interesting about Twitter’s language options, is Twitter’s involvement (or lack thereof) in it. Twitter’s translation is all done by a community of translators who both translate and moderate Twitter.com, its support pages, Twitter apps and more. Currently there are over 290,000 translators working at the Translation Center, and if you’re interested in helping, head over to Twitter’s website to find out more.

5 Easy Steps How to Connect Your Twitter Account to Your Facebook Status

Connecting Twitter to Facebook

If you enjoy using Social Media Websites chances are that you would have a Facebook account as well as a Twitter account. Both of these allow you to make updates to your status. By creating a connection between these two accounts you only need to write your message once as it will be posted to the other one automatically.

There are two ways of creating the connection between Facebook and Twitter. You can link your Twitter account to your personal Facebook account; or you can link your Facebook Page to your Twitter account. In the first option the message goes from Twitter to Facebook and in the second option it goes from Facebook to Twitter. For instance if you use Twitter regularly just write your message on your Twitter account and it will be posted automatically on your Facebook account. You will see it on your Facebook profile page and it will appear on the Facebook News Feed. Here is how you can do that in just a few simple steps.

Connecting Your Twitter Account to Your Personal Facebook Account

In this connection when you write a message on your Twitter account it gets automatically posted into your Facebook status and Wall. Here are 5 simple steps how you can make that connection. You need to be logged into your Facebook account in order to do this.

Step 1 - Locate the Twitter Application

The Twitter application as well as many other cool applications are stored in the Facebook Applications area. You can access it directly at the following URL (just copy and paste into your browser): http://www.facebook.com/apps/application.php?id=2231777543

Once you have located the application click the blue 'Go to Application' -button.

Step2 - Allow Access

By clicking the 'Allow' -button you will authorise Twitter and Facebook create the connection needed. Go ahead and... click.

Step 3 - Log on to Twitter

Next you will need to log in to your Twitter account to make the connection happen. Since we are creating a connection to your personal Facebook account you should use your personal Twitter account here as well.

Step 4 - Allow Twitter updates

In order to get the automatic update from your Twitter account to show up on your Facebook status you need to click the '+ Allow Twitter to Update Your Facebook Status' -button. This enables the connection and sends you to the next screen.

Step 5 - Authorization

This is a bit unnecessary step but you need to click the blue 'Allow Status Updates' -button to finalise the operation. The only good thing about this page is that it gives you the page URL where you can change the settings of this Twitter application as well as your other Facebook applications.

Once you click the button you will be back on the previous screen. From this screen you can also update your Facebook status. This will be posted automatically to you Twitter account as well. Please note that when you update your status on your Facebook profile page as you would do normally, it does not post to your Twitter account... and you're done! You have now connected your Twitter account with your personal Facebook account. Every time you write a new Twitter post it will now automatically show up on your Facebook Profile.
