I have given the steps for Opera Mini since Tamil Tweet application is mostly used in Opera Mini browser. However, the same idea should work in other browsers. Please give me your feedback if you get a chance to check this in other browsers. I would add those up here if any workaround is required.
Step 1 - Add a bookmark: (One-time setup)
- Go to Bookmarks while you are in this page
- Choose Add from the Options menu
- Edit the Address textbox.
- The Address textbox would be having a long URL. Remove everything from http:// to replytweetbookmark=. Remove the equal to sign as well. The remaining text would start from the word javascript.
- Click Save from the Option menu again
- You could assign a Speed Dial number from the Speed Dial list under Bookmarks (Bookmarks=>Speed Dial=>Copy from bookmarks and choosing Reply To This Tweet bookmark). If you do this, you can reply to tweets by using this shortcut key.
For example, if you assign this bookmark to the Speed Dial 5, you can reply to tweets by hitting the keys* and then 5.
Step 2 - Reply to a tweet:
- Click the Reply link for the tweet you want to reply
- If you had assigned a Speed Dial, you could press * and 5 as in the above example. Otherwise, Go to bookmark and choose Reply To This tweet.
- The remaining steps are as it is for regular tweet updates. You can enter the text in the textbox shown. The textbox will have the usernames to reply surrounded by EngDots
- The converted text can be sent to twitter as a reply with the Tweet This button
