News just in, the queueing times to get into the late night areas at Glastonbury this year will now be appearing throughout the night on www.twitter.com/worthyfm

The queueing times are going to be displayed on a number of digital signs around the site between 11pm and 4am, to let people know how long they will have to queue to get into the late night areas during these peak times. However, if you’re on site, you can now check twitter wherever you are on the site to see the latest queueing time on Worthy FM’s Twitter account, updated at the same time as the signs themselves.

Don’t worry if you not taking an internet enabled phone to the festival, as you can get Worthy FM’s tweets texted to your phone for free throughout the week.

Cheers monsignor one time.  I'll be listening for gate queue updates tomorrow morning, how does this free tweet text thing work?  My phone battery has a life expectancy of minutes when I use it for web stuff so would certainly be interested in this.

Basically you active your phone for Twitter and then on each user which you want their tweets sent to you by phone, there's a little phone icon next to the follow button which you click, and you'll get a text everytime the account tweets something.

I'd advise activating and doing that stuff nearer the time because it's pretty annoying while they're still here tweeting back to advice.
