Muse on Twitter

As there was an overwhelmingly positive response to our recent question
about whether you would like to hear from the band more often, we have
decided to test something out...

Now, we realise that in the social networking poll only 1 of you voted
for Twitter as your favourite site, but we think it could be a pretty
cool way to keep you more regularly updated, so we'd like to see how
many of you would like to hear from us through it.

Basically, Twitter is an application that allows us to communicate
short messages to you in a multitude of ways. You can look at the
messages online at http://www.twitter.com/musewire,
you can add the feed to your facebook account, you can have them pop up
on your desktop as alerts via IM or another programme called Alert
Thingy (I know, bad name, we didn't come up with it) and, perhaps most
interestingly, you can get these messages delivered direct to your
mobile phone.

Twitter doesn't charge you anything to sign up to its service nor to
receive the text messages from us (although to be completely sure, you
might want to check with your mobile phone operator to make sure they
don't deduct the text messages you receive from your total allowance or
anything like that).

So, if you want to be one of our followers, you need to do the following:

1. Go to http://www.twitter.com and register.
2. Go to http://www.twitter.com/musewire and click on the Follow button underneath the picture of the band.
3. If you want to add the feed to your Facebook account, go to https://www.facebook.com,
search for Twitter in the applications and click on Add Application.
Then, when you click on it in your applications all the messages from
the people you are following will be displayed.
4. If you want to get updates via IM or your mobile phone, go to the
Devices tab in Settings in your Twitter account and follow the
instructions to add a mobile phone or IM account.
5. If you want to stop receiving the text messages to your phone, reply to one of the messages with the word off.

That's it, fairly simple. We will start sending out some messages and
you can let us know what you think of the whole system on this thread.
We thought we'd start out by giving you some live updates from Rock In
Rio next Friday so make sure you're signed up by then if you want to
hear what the band is up to!

Cheers,

Sam.
Muse Management.
