I just tested it, to see if I could post a picture on twitter if I texted it to it, and I refreshed the page, and it had posted my phone number!!

I can't remember quite what it said, I just saw my number and thought OMG what the hell!? and deleted it pronto!!

It said something like '02 number 07******** has sent you a message...' the something else D:

Texted tweets is ok though! Just if you don't want your number on there, don't do what I did!

I've had no dodgy texts yet.. so it seems to be all good!

Must be a few... if you aren't checking on the computer at the same time then it could be on there for hours! Xx

I remember hearing of someone who posted a pic to Twitter, but it ended up linking to the wrong photo... of a half naked girl.

Aha!
That happens with links, it's because if the message is too long, then the picture link is at the end, and it gets cut off, it will go to http://bit.ly/vfg instead of /vfgfjewf - and someone else will have set up the /vfg thing as porn or something xD

LOL oh god, my story sounds like one of those "my friends" ones when I actually mean me.
But nah I did seriously mean I heard it haha

Edit: Why would I have a half naked girl on MY phone?
Edit2: Unless the girl is me...

No, Tom made about 9 threads saying the same thing.
Shaun made a few threads arguing about it.
Jen made some too.
