It’s no surprise that WWHOW! and Twitter have a lot in common – WWHOW! to a degree was inspired by Twitter and aims to have the same level of success
Of course in many aspects WWHOW! is quite different from Twitter – it is a focused service with some structure of data and a very different UI. There are a few aspects of WWHOW! functionality that bring it closer to Twitter that you may see on a surface.
One of the most important links with Twitter is an ability to post on WWHOW! using Twitter – either through a cell phone, application or web interface. Here is one of the ways you can do it –
1) Make sure that your Twitter ID is the same as WWHOW! (no need to have the same password though). To do so you might want to register on Twitter first with their huge user base getting a specific user ID could be a bit trickier.
2) Follow WWHOW. To do it follow the link Twitter and click “Follow” button.
3) At this point you can start using WWHOW! via Twitter – just tweet the deals you find using the following template:
@WWHOW # #
For example your tweet may look like that –
@WWHOW Pampers # BabyWorld @ Monroeville, PA # BOGOF
or
@WWHOW Cappuccino # Amici @ Montgomery and Bush, San Francisco, CA # Only $2
Of course your posts will need to stay within 140 character limitation imposed by Twitter. Using Twitter is in particular convenient due to its mobile interface, so you can send an SMS message right from the garage sale you discovered while driving from work or when you stumble upon a great sale in a neighborhood grocery store.
