    Anyone who updates twitter in ireland might want to look at www.agtweet.com

    It gives you an Irish number (your choice of vodafone or meteor) to send updates to. I used it earlier and it worked fine. Was recommended to me from a guy who's super conscious about security

    I’m not pedantic...I’m merely overly concerned with minute details.

    Can I ask a potentially stupid question? What is the point of Twitter, as distinct from official club websites etc?

    It's just easier to post updates on twitter than on a club website. I have no idea how to go about putting game updates on the official site but it's very simple to do so on my phone on twitter. It's also possible to follow loads of clubs and they all come up on the same page rather than looking through 22 different websites.
    We're not arrogant, we're just better.

    I've done it once, but it does involve bringing your laptop to games and hoping it has enough battery left. And that the internet works.

    We've done it just the past 2 games, but in our case there's really not a lot of call for it, as the away games are covered online and over the airwaves by the local station, and most people who're interested are at the home ones anyway.
    But for those who can't make the home games but are online for some reason, or for away games that aren't covered (midweek usually, or when the hurlers get started) it should be useful, plus you can arrange to have the updates texted to your phone too, though there is an hourly limit on texts it seems (that may be a mobile company issue though).

    Plus then for those who like to have info coming in from a load of games it's also very handy. And certainly from my point of view it's much easier to update in nearly real-time than the club site.
