Twimight was an open source Android client for the social networking site Twitter.[1] The client let users view in real time "tweets" or micro-blogging posts on the Twitter website as well as publish their own.

Added value

In addition to being a fully functional, ad-free and open-source [2] Twitter client, Twimight allowed communication if the cellular network is unavailable (for example, in case of a natural disaster). Twimight was also equipped with a feature called the "disaster mode",[3][1][4] which users could enable or disable at will. When the disaster mode was enabled and the cellular network was down, Twimight used peer-to-peer communication to let users tweet in any circumstance. Enabling the disaster mode enabled on the phone's Bluetooth transceiver and connected the user to other nearby phones.[5] This created a mobile ad hoc network or MANET, which could be used, for example, to locate missing persons even when the communication infrastructure had failed.

History

Twimight started out as a project for a Master thesis at ETH Zurich in the spring of 2011.
