Twitter has rolled out photo-sharing for all of its users on twitter.com

The feature, which made its debut in early June, allows users to add images to their tweets. Users will now find a camera icon on the bottom of the “What’s Happening?” box on Twitter.com. Clicking it will let users select a picture to upload, which they can then preview before sending it to the world. Tweets containing photos include a link to pic.twitter.com, along with a thumbnail of the attached picture.

The weird thing is that the photo service isn’t available for the Twitter app yet, not on iPhone or any Android users able to use Twitter photos on the Android app.

It is probable that the feature is being rolled out in advance of the launch of Apple iOS 5. Apple’s new mobile OS prominently features Twitter integration, essentially making it the default social network for iOS users. Users will be able to share photos via Twitter in iOS 5. Twitter isn’t saying when mobile photo uploads will be available in its Android and iOS apps, but it is suspected that functionality will be coming very soon. [Source]
