Twitter is known for going out of its way to help people fight a social/political cause which Twitter believes in. Most remarkable was the role of Twitter in last years Iran elections. Though Twitter did face the heat for helping the people of Iran when it was hacked late last year by the so called ‘Iranian Cyber Army’. Now comes yet another humanitarian gesture from Twitter, this time for the people of Haiti. Twitter has arranged free SMS tweets for the people of Haiti who are using Digicel network for their mobile phones. Twitter co-founder Biz Stone writes in Twitter Blog

“Kevin Thau and our mobile team have recently arranged free SMS tweets for Digicel Haiti customers. To activate the service, mobile phone users in Haiti can text follow @oxfam to 40404. Accounts are created on the fly and any account can be followed this way.”

Applause for Twittter! Atleast it is doing what ever it can under its power to help the people suffering there in Haiti.

Personal Appeal – You might consider donating a small amount to people of Haiti at World Food Programme .
