How to Use Twitter SMS on a Phone

Adding a Phone to Your Twitter Account
1. Log in to Twitter and select 'Settings' from the drop-down menu near the top right of the Twitter Web page.
2. Click on the 'Mobile' link, select your location from the 'Country\Region' menu, and enter your phone number.
3. Click 'Start' and follow the instructions to verify your phone. Send 'GO' as a text message to the number Twitter provides. After verification, you can use Twitter via SMS from your phone.
Posting via SMS
4. Ensure your phone is linked to your Twitter account.
5. Send your Tweet as a text message to the appropriate Twitter short code. The short code is '40404' for users within the United States.
6. Check your Twitter profile online to see that your Tweet posted successfully.
Receiving SMS Messages for Direct Messages, Mentions and Selected Tweets
7. Send 'set messages on' as a text message to your Twitter short code to get direct messages via SMS. Twitter will forward these private messages to your cell phone.
8. Text 'set mentions all' to your short code if you want to receive all Twitter mentions as SMS messages on your cell phone. Mentions are Tweets by other Twitter users that include your Twitter username. If you only want to receive SMS notifications of mentions made by people you follow on Twitter, send 'set mentions on' to your short code instead of 'set mentions all.'
9. Send 'on username' to your short code to receive a single Twitter user's Tweets as SMS messages. Replace 'username' with the username of the Twitter user you want to follow on your mobile device. Do not include any quotes or brackets in the text command.

Will Gmail Send SMS and Pictures?

Enabling SMS Messaging
The SMS messaging feature in Gmail must be enabled for it to work. To enable SMS, click the gear icon in the upper right corner of the Gmail interface. Select “Labs” from the menu. Browse the Labs tab for the “SMS in Chat” entry. Select “Enable,” and then scroll to the bottom of the page and click the “Save Changes” button. Gmail will return you to your inbox. The “Send SMS” box will now appear above your Chat box.
Sending SMS Messages
Enter the phone number of the person you want to message into the Send SMS box and press Enter. Enter a name to associate with the phone number and confirm you have entered the number correctly, and then click “Save.” A chat window will pop up with the contact’s name and telephone number. Enter a message as you would in any other Gmail chat session and press Enter to send. The message you entered will be delivered to the phone number as an SMS message. Like Chat history, SMS message history will be saved by default. It costs nothing to send an SMS through Gmail, though there may be a cost to the recipient depending on his service.
Sending Pictures
Gmail is capable of sending images via email. Most common image formats, including JPEG, PNG and GIF, are able to be transmitted. The first way to send a picture in Gmail is to use the “Attach a file” link. Open a new or existing email and click “Attach a file” below the Subject line. In the window that pops up, find the image you want to send, select it and click “OK.” The image will attach to the email and will transmit when you click “Send.” You can also click the “Insert Image” button on the toolbar below the subject line. Files selected using the Insert Image button will be imported directly into the body of the message rather than as separate attachments. Both methods allow you to send a picture or multiple pictures, and both methods can be used at the same time if you want.
Assigning a Personal Picture
Another way of sending a picture is to select a personal Gmail picture that will display when you are chatting with or emailing someone. To assign yourself a picture, click the gear icon representing Options in the upper right corner of the Gmail interface. Click “Mail Settings,” and then find the “My picture” entry under the “General” tab. Click “Select a picture” to assign a personal picture for all of your Gmail communications.

How to Find a Cell Phone Number from an Email Address

1. Send an email. The easiest way to find out if the owner of an email address has a cell phone number is to simply send an email. If you're not sure whose email address it is, introduce yourself and explain your reason for making contact and why you are requesting the cell phone number.
2. Check the email address in Google. Because Google is the most comprehensive public search engine available, use it to conduct a reverse email search. Enter the email address in the Google browser, press the 'Search' button, then review every result; these might include websites, blogs or social media sites. For example, if a blog displays that email address, check its text for an associated cell phone number.
3. Run a deep web reverse email search. Pipl is a free, deep web search engine, which means its web crawlers find content more traditional web crawlers miss. Go to Pipl.com, click the 'Email' link, enter the email address and press the 'Search' button. Pipl displays online sites and documents where that email address displays -- as in Step 2, check the content of those sites and documents for any cell phone numbers linked to that email address.
4. Conduct a search in social networks. Kgbpeople offers a free, comprehensive search in social networks, as well as search engines, online photos and videos and personal profiles. Go to Kgbpeople.com, enter the email address in the 'Name:' field at the top of the page, select the country in the pull-down menu and press the 'Search' button. Select one of the four tabs at the top of the screen -- Social networks, Search engines, Photo and video, or Personal -- then review the results for a cell phone number associated with that email address.
5. Search all Craigslist ads. Because over 50 million people in the U.S. use Craigslist, it's a handy place to conduct a reverse email search. Go to Searchallcraigs.com, enter the email address in the field and press the 'Search' button. In the results, review the ads for a cell phone number connected to that email address.

How to Send an Automated Voicemail

1. Open an account at any automated voice mail system online. Some popular free sites are dialmycall.com, phonevite.com and googlevoice.com. Register your telephones. Sites like phonevite.com allow the user to register several different telephone numbers that serve as the originating number. Even cell phones can be used to send voice mail messages without the need for an Internet connection.
2. Activate your account. You may receive a recorded phone message with instructions to activate your account. Google Voice will call your selected telephone number when you select the option to activate the account. A two-digit number will be displayed on the screen. Enter the two-digit number when prompted to do so.
3. Log in to your account or call the assigned number and record your message. Recorded voice mail messages may be limited to 30 seconds or less, so you will have to pack a lot of information into a short, succinct message.
4. Call a pre-assigned telephone number given to you by your automated online voicemail system and record your message from your cell phone or any telephone if you do not have access to a computer and need to send an automated voice mail message immediately.
5. Select the telephone numbers that will receive your recorded voice mail message. Free services may limit the total number of telephone numbers to call. If you have more than 10 people who will receive regular messages, DialMyCall.com allows up to 25 people to receive voice mail messages.
6. Send your message to the selected recipients. Enter recipient telephone numbers and then save your list. Place names and phone numbers in categories like 'friends' or 'clients.' Save your list. Select the people to receive the message by checking a box beside their names and click 'Send.' You may schedule the message to be sent at a later time or date or send it immediately.

How to Intercept SMS From a Samsung Exclaim

1. Sign up for software services that allow you to intercept SMS messages. Most of these services cost a fee, which varies by software provider, but can range anywhere from $40 to $50 or more as of the time of publication. Available interception software programs include Mobile Spy, FlexiSpy, Big Daddy Spy and Spy Bubble.
2. Wait to receive a confirmation email from the software provider. This email contains a link to download the software.

4. Click the download link in the email to download and install the spy software on the Samsung Exclaim.
5. Log out of your email program when the download is complete. Return the phone to its owner.

7. Read all of the text messages sent and received from the Samsung Exclaim.
