Mobile Social Media Updates without a Data Plan

Yes, I am probably the last person in the whole world who updates as much as he does on facebook and whole bunch of other social media websites without a data plan. How do I do it? Text and SMS, baby. It is somewhat inconvenient (updates cannot be revised until I get to a computer) and impersonal (I can't always reply to a comment) but this is easier on my wallet (Verizon Wireless charges $29.99 for a personal data plan and can be as high as a $49.99 business data plan).

Below is a rundown on how to pretend you have a data plan like your friends do without actually having to pay for it.

Facebook

Support - http://www.facebook.com/mobile/

Status updates: Text to 32665 (FBOOK)

Mobile Uploads: SMS to 32665 (FBOOK) - Put caption in body of SMS NOT in Subject

Commands

m to message (ie "m john smith hey")

info for information (ie "info john smith")

srch for search (ie "srch john smith")

poke for poke (ie "poke john smith")

r to reply

n for next when you are reading a message that is truncated because of the 160 character limit

Pros: You can also read full messages over a couple text messages and somewhat interact to friend comments of your update.

Cons: Be extremely careful with typos and grammar otherwise you have to wait to get to a computer to revise. Cannot read News Feed. :(

Don't have a data plan but want to reach someone via text since they are not by their computer? No worries. You can text others via your email!

This is great if you want to text someone from home and the recipient is out and about.
