The Internet is a collection of electronic pathways that extend around the globe and to every point, but it’s really applications that are the driving force. Beyond the World Wide Web and e-mail, there are scores of methods of communicating and transmitting information, although not all equally meaningful. One of the hot applications now is Twitter, a way of sending up to 140 words out onto the Internet to let others know what you’re doing, and a way of following the so-called “Tweets” of others. It may seem limited and it may seem useless to some, but there’s an entire community that’s addicted to Twitter. And one of its users is tech-Los Angeles firefighter Brian Humphrey, who does public safety information for the agency. He’s wired in to the Internet in several ways, especially with a Twitter feed of LAFD activities. Take a look at his Tweets and consider if Twitter might help your agency.
