Twitter, Digicel Haiti Team Up to Offer Free SMS Tweets

Twitter teamed up with Haitian mobile-phone provider Digicel Haiti to offer its customers free SMS tweets.

Twitter co-founder Biz Stone posted on the Twitter Blog:

If you have been following the events in Haiti since the devastating quake last month, then you know of the initial bursts of compassion. International dialogue now shifts from life-saving relief to long-term restoration. Officials are saying this may take 10 years at a cost of billions.

Post-disaster needs assessment is underway, and there will be an international donor conference late next month in New York City.
