Update ping from twitter
Could we perhaps have an feature that monitors a given twitter account and then updates the ping.fm with the retrieved tweet? Cos i can SMS to twitter and it's free (and i would hardly ever update my status message if i couldn't sms it). Twitter is convenient cos it integrates with everything and i pretty much only post to that (via sms and a desktop client). It would be sweet if i could carry on doing that and ping will update everything else with whatever is on twitter.

Will it be an internationally accessible number? -
Yes. -
Inappropriate?Yeah but could we also have an option to subscribe to something like twitter (and perhaps also an rss feed which would be very cool). Failing that would the current api allow me to write something like that (and am i able to use it)?
Great news about the SMS support though.

Inappropriate?I think this is a great idea. I don't use the SMS technology, but I definately update twitter from my phone using 3G or desktop Apps. This would be great, knowing it updated everywhere.
I’m happy

Inappropriate?I want this so my twitter updates everything, using ping as the medium... Ping doesnt have the image posting capabilities that twitter does... Id rather just update twitter to update everything... Ping is a very nice service tho!

Inappropriate?Um, you could just configure Ping.fm to update by email and then send an SMS to that email. That is how I update my statuses remotely (I have the email saved as a contact in my phone. Whal-la. Presto.)
I’m confident
