I found this fascinating article today:

The UK has had an outsized cultural impact on the world. From music to sports to literature... and now – MMS with Twitter.

Today, not only has Orange UK turned on Twitter SMS, but it has added a first-of-its-kind special enhancement. Orange UK users can also send picture messages (MMS) to 86444 in addition to text messages because of a site that Orange UK has created called Snapshot.

Upload your photos to your twitter account in 3 easy steps

1. Take a photo on your mobile
2. Select 'Send via MMS' or
   'Send multimedia message'
3. Send it to 86444
   

The first time you use this service you will receive an SMS with an invite to enter your twitter username and password.
