The same way the breaking updates come onto this site..... from
US. A few big advantages with this is that you can set up twitter to e-mail, or even text message a alert to you. Anyone can easily join to receive the alerts without needing approval.
As to sending alerts you would have to get the e-mail address from me. The more people we have monitoring, the more alerts we can get sent out. I even have it set up that I can e-mail a alert from my phone, so I can be mobile, on a scene, or away from my PC and still provide updates.
I would definitely like to get some more "dispatchers" throughout the Wasatch front and all of Utah. We also *may* use the service to provide some other radio related updates.
Thank you Brett for the very though walk through on setting up a twitter account. If anyone has questions, or would like to be a dispatcher please PM me for details.
