Kenton Cool Tweeted First Tweet Ever From the Top Of the World, Mount Everest [VIDEO]

Kenton Cool, a British mountain climber using a Ncell 3G Connection, tweeted the first tweet from Mount Everest.

He climbed to the summit 9th time and this time, he set a record by tweeting ‘first tweet ever’ from the top of the world i.e. from the summit of ‘Mount Everest’.

Though 3G Signal was weak, how ever he had managed to send first tweet from the Mount Everest.

Samsung sponsored Kenton Cool to use its new most powerful smartphone “Samsung Galaxy S II”, to make the first 3G call and tweet from the summit of Mount Everest. However it had been great if he had enabled location service on, in his new “Samsung Galaxy S II”.

Kenton Cool tweeted, “Everest summit no 9! 1st tweet from the top of the world thanks to a weak 3G signal & the awesome Samsung Galaxy S2 handset! @samsunguk”

And micro-blogging site Twitter also said, Kenton Cool has tweeted first tweet from the Mount Everest. Twitter tweeted, “Wow, @KentonCool managed to send the 1st Tweet from an Everest summit. Where's the craziest place you've ever tweeted?”

Not only Kenton but Samsung also set a record, “Samsung Galaxy S II” was unboxed in Mount Everest for the first time. Kenton was with his new “Samsung Galaxy S II”. And Samsung says, “extreme unboxing of Samsung Galaxy S II on Mount Everest”

In October 2010, A private Nepali telecom company Ncell took high speed Internet facilities to the top of the world. Ncell launched Nepal's first 3G services at the base camp of Mount Everest.

In order to make the 3G services available to locals and trekkers in the Khumbu area, Ncell has set up nine base stations -- in Lukla, Namche, Khumjung, Thame, Syanboche, Thyangboche, Kalapatthar, Phakding and Gorakshep.

P.S. I don’t know how many Nepali Papers got this story ?

Shirish Ko Phool : Review & Download

One of the finest book ever written in Nepali literature....Shirish Ko Phool and one of my personal favorite. I have read this novel over four times or say five times..and each time I finish the novel I feel pang and it hangs on my head for so many days. Why guilt is so painful that made such a strong woman called Sakambari to suicide..or die…?? The novel has a wonderful language..the simplest of all. When I had read it for the first time..to tell the truth that I hadn’t really understood the novel, I felt the love story in it and I could not understand the passion in the novel.. But this day I may say I am able to figure out the passion and the feelings of the author.. I really appreciate the wonderful story, the plot the real setting, the real characters…and the situation of the novel till it ends. The pain of running away from the feelings and passion. When the Suyogbir says.."Ma glass ma bhagchu” ( I forgot the line exactly…). The feeling is that we run away from pai...
