Call me a ludite on such things - but I've had a quick look and not certain what it is ??.
Can you send cellphone text messages that then display either on the twitter site and/or are sent to subscribiers ?.
Any other similar services - I might have a use for it.

It's a useful communications tool for a business to keep track of the concerns of their consumers, or just for keeping in touch with friends.
As a fairly obscure example, I was keeping Adiewoo updated with the cricket scores whilst he was on the train home

You can send updates via text on your cellphone that then propagate to your Twitter feed. Texts can only be sent *to* cellphones in the UK if you're a Vodafone subscriber.
This is quite a good introduction to what it's all about.

I thought you could send tweets on Vodafone for free too or was that just an limited time offer?

Yep you're right. From the article I linked to above -
Quote from: Twitter Vodafone UK has signed an agreement with Twitter allowing customers to send and receive SMS updates at no additional cost.

Edit: #iranelection has been blocked in Iran.
