DPD Featured in CNN.com Article
The Dalton Police Department's use of Twitter, a social networking site, is being featured in an article on CNN.com today. To read the article, click here.
Twitter is a social networking site that operates with a text-based form of "micro-blogging" where users send out live updates using 140 characters or less. The Dalton Police Department joined Twitter earlier this year to improve the way we communicate with the citizens we serve.

Follow the Dalton Police Department on Twitter
The Dalton Police Department is now online at Twitter.com! You can follow our new Twitter feed at twitter.com/DaltonPD. All you have to do is sign up for a free Twitter account and click "follow". You can also read the DPD's updates without signing up just by visiting the site.
Twitter is a social and communications networking service similar to a blog, but with much shorter messages (posts are limited to 140 characters). The Twitter homepage describes the service as, "a service for friends, family, and co-workers to communicate and stay connected through the exchange of quick, frequent answers to one simple question: What are you doing?"
The Dalton Police Department will be using the service to stay closer connected to the community with any important safety messages or updates about police activity, as well as any news that might be of interest and updates about the department's various projects in the community.
Stay tuned to the Dalton Police Blog and also our DPD Twitter feed for more information from the Dalton Police Department.
