Hi guys,<br><br>Does anyone know if they have this for specific languages ? There looks to be a group of indigenous language tweeters but for which indigenous languages?<br><br> LH<br><br>-- NAMA Student<br> Linguistics Department<br>

Thanks Phil - I've done some test tweets with different Unicode<br>
scripts and everything<br>
seems to be handled correctly by twitter, including search. If you<br>
do end up creating<br>
an account, send me a note and I'll add you to the Indigenous Tweets site.<br>
