This is a response post to my post from November about how Verizon hates Twitter.

This past Monday I returned from a 2 week backpacking trip around Europe, covering Spain, Germany and Austria. On my return I received one of the greatest gifts ever, Twitter and Verizon now play nice and I get all my updates even the ones with “@” symbols.

Thanks bunches people at Twitter for taking care of this issue in a somewhat timely manner.

I don’t know what the deal is but for some unknown reason when I get Twitter updates to my cell phone(Verizon Motorola RAZR V3m) if they include an “@” symbol anything after the “@” symbol doesn’t show up. The biggest problem with this is that most of the time when an “@” symbol is included in a tweet it is the first thing, therefore I get lots and lots of blank twitter updates. Which angers me to no extent, what does a person have to do around here to get some Twitter updates.

Just to make stuff clear I love me some Twitter and hate me some Verizon.

The real Twitter update:
