Vodafone recently announced a new innovation which totally depends on the social networking site, Twitter. The new signal strength finder through twitter allows Vodafone subscribers to find the signal strengths in their area. Users can do this by using the hashtag #vodafonesignal together with your location, the type of connection your using (whether GPRS or 3G), signal strength (amount of bars), and whether your in or outdoors together with your handset model.
Results are displayed on an interactive map which show both indoor and outdoor signal strength for comparison. If you don’t have a twitter account, you can simply log on to Vodafone’s website to view the map. Great for potential customers of Vodafone as it gives your coverage information before entering into a long term contract. There is a video below that gives a more in-depth detail on how to check the signal in your area with Vodafone.
