Quick Tip re Twitter Add-Ons

There are several pieces of software that allow you to access Twitter without logging into Twitter itself. These provide a number of benefits, such as automating re-tweets, seeing replies to you more easily, and popping up a window when new tweets are received.

But beware. Such facilities mean the system is accessing Twitter regularly. Depending on how this process works, a substantial amount of data can be downloaded. As much as 1GB per day has been seen.

So if you are on a link with restricted data volumes, worth checking how much data your Twitter software is consuming.
