Where do you share information about police and fire action in progress? I send some of my friends text messages when there's something worth listening to.
I also login to the RadioMan911 Justin.tv page when I hear lots of sirens or see something on the news. The people that hang out and chat there are pretty good about copying interesting events into the chat window so you can get caught up even if you missed the initial calls. I was able to provide some information to the group when a window washer had an accident next door to my office.
It'd be nice to have something like that to pick out the good action on the CPD channels - a twitter feed, IRC room, simplex ham frequency, or some medium of communication to share interesting things heard on the radio. This forum is nice but it's not exactly tailored to realtime communication.
I'm interested in knowing what other options are out there.
