Someone should come up with a prime time TV show that pays tribute to the series, “Kids Say The Darndest Things”, with the different questions asked by users alongside the answers published. It is interesting to note that despite Siri being rather omniscient in certain matters, it is not a deified app just yet. After all, it cannot perform a Facebook status update, tweet or even send a message over to Google+.
Not being able to tweet is weird considering how the iOS 5 has native Twitter integration. Nice to know that some enterprising person came up with a hack that allows any iPhone 4S to Tweet, Facebook or Google+ via Siri. Check out the respective instructions after the jump.
For Facebook, text “Hello” to 32665 in the United States (or the short code for whatever country you’re in), then follow the link in the reply to finish the setup process. Add the short code to your Contacts, and name it “Facebook.” That way, you can tell Siri to “send a text to Facebook saying …”
For Twitter, text “START” to 40404 in the United States (or the short code for other countries), then respond with your username, then your password. Add the short code to your Contacts with the name “Twitter.”
For Google+, visit your settings page and scroll down to “Set delivery preferences.” Add your cell phone number, but be sure to click “don’t notify me” if you don’t want incoming Google+ messages by text. Verify your number with the code you receive by phone, then add the short code “33669” (in the U.S.) to your contacts as “Google Plus.” Updates are shared with everyone in your circles.
